Add to them the non-traditional relationships around the world and you start to understand that even in these cold, modern times of social media fails, fake online dating profiles, and endless stories of politician and celebrity infidelity, romance is indeed still winning more than it\u2019s losing.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.thecanvasfactory.com.au\/blog\/app\/uploads\/celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-young-happy-couple.jpg\" alt=\"celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-young-happy-couple\" width=\"650\" height=\"475\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1359 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canvasfactory.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-young-happy-couple.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.canvasfactory.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-young-happy-couple-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.canvasfactory.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-young-happy-couple-150x109.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 650px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 650\/475;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So if you have a relationship worth celebrating, what\u2019s the best way to celebrate it? There are a lot of choices, but why go with empty pre-packaged romance when you can celebrate its history and meaning through photo printing? Put your relationship up as wall art for all to see and mark the moments that made you and your partner <em>you<\/em> \u2013 all in gorgeous canvas art.<\/p>\n<h2>Romantic Wall Art Tip: Choose Your Moments<\/h2>\n<p>The first step is a little curation. Your relationship has had a lot of ups and down and twists and turns, if you\u2019re like anyone else in the world. There were probably a lot of time you weren&#8217;t sure where it was going or how you were going to make it to the next stop \u2013 yet here you are. <em>That\u2019s<\/em> what\u2019s worth celebrating.<\/p>\n<p>So, don\u2019t go for the obvious. Don\u2019t go for the glamour shots where you\u2019re generically happy, just to impress your imagined audience. Yes, it\u2019s nice when people ooh and aah over a fine photo of you, but the idea isn&#8217;t to celebrate what a cute couple you are through a little DIY art gallery, but rather to use these amazing visuals to trace your journey.<\/p>\n<p>That means choosing the interesting photos that mark the turning points: First Date, yes. First fight? Yes! Think of your relationship as a story, and all stories have conflict and development \u2013 and then that glamour shot you were looking at, where you\u2019re happy and content and, yes, <em>cute<\/em> \u2013 that\u2019s your final image.<\/p>\n<h2>Romantic Wall Art Tip: Arrangement<\/h2>\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve chosen a few photos that trace your romantic journey together, the next step is to have them made into beautiful canvas prints and hung on the wall. You have several options for presentation here:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.thecanvasfactory.com.au\/blog\/app\/uploads\/celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-stairway.jpg\" alt=\"celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-stairway\" width=\"650\" height=\"650\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1358 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canvasfactory.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-stairway.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.canvasfactory.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-stairway-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.canvasfactory.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/celebrate-relationship-photos-canvas-stairway-300x300.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 650px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 650\/650;\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Simple &amp; Classic: Chronological order, in a row along one wall. Nothing wrong with this. It\u2019s clean, it\u2019s classic, and it tells the story in a powerful way. Augmented with some mementos and keepsakes and it becomes a real focal point. In fact, a hi-res photo of a memento from each moment \u2013 a ticket stub, a dried flower, a small gift given \u2013 paired with each photo can actually make a straightforward arrangement very powerful indeed.<\/li>\n<li>Crazy &amp; Energetic: Think collage, think dream logic. This might require that you do some editing of the photos ahead of time in order to really get the desired effect, but the idea is to go for the feeling of your relationship \u2013 the energy, the passion, and convey it somehow in the way your canvas prints explode off the wall. This can take some tries; some cheap printed hardcopies of your photos pinned up in different arrangements before you make the final decisions might be a good idea.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your relationship is worth celebrating. Make it a part of the home you&#8217;ve built together and invite friends and family to be a part of that celebration \u2013 and let your partner know that you value your story with them by surprising them with the Story of You on the wall.
