Acrylic frames, Ideal for wedding photography

So we are all set for wedding season and what is more than likely the busiest time of year for many wedding photographers. As the great British weather holds up for 2010 many couples will be wed this year and hundreds of thousands of stunning wedding photos will be taken.

Selecting the perfect images for wedding albums can be a daunting task for many newly wed but get even harder when they have to narrow it down for images to frame and display on the wall. Many photographers offer many different types of media for dispalying wedding photos, these include picture frames, canvas prints, foamboard mounts etc.

The latest trend for displaying wedding photos is with acrylic photo frames. Acrylic frames consist of two laser cut sheets of perspex held to together with chrome wall fixings (Standoffs). The laser cut sheets are diamond polished on the edges leaving the highest possible finish.

Wedding images are very popular with acrylic framed prints and this is because the material suits the style of image. Wedding images are always of the highest quality if they have been shot by a professional and for that reason they deserve the highest quality framing method available. The back panel of the acrylic frames comes in many different finsihes which suit modern photography, these include black glossy panels, white, clear and a new styel which is called opal.

White back paneled acrylic frames suit wedding images for obvious reasons and black acrylic panels suit any monotone photography. The new style is the opal panel, this is a semi transparent white panel sometimes referred to as a light diffuser. The opal panel adds a very subtle look to acrylic frames and often looks fantastic with wedding photos. As it is a semi translucent panel it allows light to shine through but blurs the detail of the wall that it is sat on therefore the entire focus is on the image framed within the acrylic.

As part of the new range of acrylic frames the Opal style acrylic photo frame has been added to the product range at theimagebox.co.uk. If you are looking for a quality way to frame your wedding photos and would like a modern look the acrylic photos frames are for you.

Personalised Photo Enlargement



Photographic printing can now take the form of many types of media, photo prints, jigsaws, mugs, canvas prints, acrylic prints and banners to mention just a few. Photo enlargement is a very popular method of printing images. Images can be enlarged very easily these days from digital cameras and can be enlarged upto 60 inches with most cameras that shoot images over 5 mega pixels.

A very popular way of displaying photographic enlargements is with personalised posters often referred to as party posters or party banners. Customers can often add personal messages onto their photographs and have them printed as huge posters or banners. Party posters available from theimagebox.co.uk are printed onto thick 180 gsm coated paper, this is the ideal paper because it is high quality but cheaper to produce than glossy photo paper. Another style of personalised posters are printed onto outdoor vinyl banner. Images can be printed directly onto outdoor banner material and text can be added, these are great for putting up outside party venues and very popular with weddings and christenings.

Photo enlargements can be created from digital photographs or original images, even the oldest photographs can be enlarged with high quality scanning technology. Photographic restoration can often be done to old photographs before they are enlarged into party posters and banners.

Suprise your friends and family by having photographs transformed into unique party poster designed to liven up any party or special occasion. Photo enlargements and personalised enlargements with text on are available to order online from www.theimagebox.co.uk.

Bespoke Acrylic Frames For Businesses



This year has seen a huge shift in the way we display photos and images. Acrylic frames have become so important complementing homes and offices with modern sleek interiors. Once upon a time the modern alternative to a traditional picture frame with glass was to display photos and artwork stretched over a wooden frame often referred to as a photograph on canvas, canvas print or stretched canvas. Now the most upto date a trendy way to display images is with an acrylic photo frame.

Acrylic frames really started their life in contemporary penthouse apartments in cities such as London and New York, this was because of the huge price tag that they carried with them. Now acrylic framed prints can be purchased for less than £50 making them the modern alternative in picture framing.

Many businesses have turned to acrylic frames to deck out the interior of waiting rooms, board rooms and offices. They where only really seen in high end business office blocks but now they can be seen in offices up and down the country.

Corporate branding and identity plays a key role for any business large or small and can often sway a customer towards a company or away from a company. Making the right impression in lobbies and reception areas is vital. Acrylic photo frames can now be manufactured to the exact needs of a business to suit their corporate image and identity. Acrylic/Perspex is often available to manufacturers in well over 250 different colours so matching logos and business colours can easily be done.

Acrylic framed prints are ideal for small businesses as they can give an expensive classy feel to their interior. Bespoke acrylic photo frames can now be manufactured to custom sizes and custom colours for a fraction of the price that they where 5 years ago.

If your business is looking to improve its corporate identity and make a mark on its customers as they enter the door then acrylic standoff frames are just what you are looking for. Please visit our website www.theimagebox.co.uk and take a look at our range of quality acrylic picture frames.
