New York interior designer Todd Klein agrees that family photos should stay in a home's private spaces — the master bedroom, the dressing room, the mudroom — for three reasons. One: You probably spend more time in the private spaces of your home, so you interact with the images more frequently.

If all your images are similar in style or tone (for example, they’re all from the same photo shoot or taken on the same day), choose a mix of close-up and distant images to add visual interest. Also, Wolf says to mix the size of the photos; this gives the final arrangement a more organic feel. If you are going for a more varied look, Wolf says to mix black-and-white photos and color photos together on a wall. “Just be sure to have a nice mix of the two throughout the gallery wall so it looks balanced.” She adds: “You can easily convert a color photo to black-and-white on your phone, in Instagram, or using pretty much any photo editor like VSCO.” When it comes to printing images, most online sites will automatically check the image’s resolution and then suggest the largest size at which you can print it without compromising the quality. Wolf says many phone photos can be printed larger than you would think. A photo from a newer iPhone can be blown up to roughly 22 by 30, she says, “which is huge.” For framing, Naficy, Whittaker, Klein and Wolf agree that frames don’t have to match, but choosing frames with a similar hue will create a more unified look. For example, Wolf suggests mixing white and silver or natural wood frames — using different widths and textures — but all in similar colors and tones. Both Whittaker and Klein also like to incorporate family keepsakes into their clients’ gallery walls. “Our goal is to create arrangements for our clients that feel special and, most of all, personal,” Whittaker says. Klein likes to think of these arrangements as scrapbooks of a family’s life; he includes framed diplomas, invitations, ticket stubs — “all the different things that people save because they mean something.” Though incorporating other items into your gallery wall display makes it more interesting, they can also be more challenging to hang. Naficy says to look for similar hues, shapes, textures and patterns and group them together for a more cohesive display. When creating a gallery wall, Wolf says, you don’t want the outer edges of your arrangement to be square; you want them to be imperfect so you can add new pieces as you get them. She advises keeping two inches between each piece so that the arrangement looks intentional and maintains a degree of consistency no matter how big it gets. If you have less space between the pieces, Wolf says, you will have trouble controlling the arrangement; more space and it will look like you didn’t plan to hang the pieces together.
