Family Photo Ideas

A custom designed collage is one of the best ideas for displaying your family photos. A well designed photo collage is a beautiful way to fit a montage of family portraits into one frame or on a page, card, or canvas. You can create a collage exclusively with family faces, or create a unique and beautiful design by adding foliage, texture, or scenery.

While you are looking for ideas for your family photos, keep the orientation of the shots you want to use in mind. The photos you want to display may all be landscape (horizontal) or they may all be portrait (vertical) shots; however, it is more likely that you will have a combination of shapes to display.

This Family Photo Collage (Cropdog Pattern 459) combines 6 family portraits with foliage images that create the photo mosaic style detailing (12 total image spots). With the large center focal spot, this is a great template to display photos of parents, their adult children, and a shot of the entire family including grandchildren, as shown. The “mosaic cut” detail spots are a great way to break up the page and add additional interest.
