Making Memories

I love photo's. I love to take photo's. But since becoming a mummy, although I now have more reason than ever before to take photo's, it seems I take less than in my pre-baby days. I've realised that this isn't because I'm a shameful mother who doesn't want to capture every filled nappy, mouthful and and tantrum on film. No, it's because now I'm a mum I barely have time for brain functions other than providing and meeting my sons needs. Ok basically when I'm taking my little one out I'm rushing getting nappies, wipes, food, juice, toys, spare clothes etc ready in the bag that usually I forget the camera or have no room for it. This usually result in a mental expletive when I get to the bottom of the road and realise I've left it behind. SO. Since I started blogging I've had an excellent reason to photograph Josh as much as possible-because I want to share his experiences with you!

So now I've overcome that, my next battle is how to use the images. Obviously I add them on my blog but I love to have pictures in my home and I had been thinking about getting a canvas print for quite a while. It's one of those things that lots of people think about and want (I know this not because I read minds, but because I've asked!) but always falls to the bottom of the list. So, determined to change this when Photos To Canvas offered me a free canvas I absolutely jumped at the chance!
 I have a personal favourite picture of Josh just after his first birthday and no print out was doing it justice so I knew it was this image I wanted on canvas. Jamie at Photos To Canvas is excellent, I sent the picture to him and he waved his magic wand to make my photo even more perfect. Me being me I would just go gaa-gaa over this image and not notice the wonky skirting board (which would have looked schu-wiff when on the wall, no I wasn't drunk when I took the picture thank you very much!), the minor red eye or the electricall socket behind Josh's head. Jamie, expertly corrected all of these for me and I couldn't wait to get the canvas in my hands!

Less than 24 hours later the canvas arrived-talk about speedy delivery! (Nothing worse than waiting ages for something you order online) Jamie gives free 24 hour delivery if ordered before 3pm, which is great! I was so chuffed at the speed but the overall impression blew me away. The canvas is utterly stunning. It's top quality and the picture looks even better on canvas than I could ever have expected. It's absolutely perfect and so professional. Mine was just over A3 size and is perfect for our living room. In fact I'm so in love with it that I am considering having several more made to create a mural effect on the wall! The website is excellent and is so quick and easy to use and when I want the next ones doing there are all sorts of sizes/shapes to choose from! One thing is for sure I've been biten by the canvas print bug and I couldn't be more satisfied!

  4. That's a lovely picture, It makes a great canvas. I've taken loads of photos since becoming a parent but I never actually use them. I must start printing some out. It just takes so much time to do it.

    Thanks for linking to blogaholics
