Several years ago letter photography seemed to explode and you could buy them everywhere. This still remains true. However, as a DYI'er I could not bring myself to purchase one. So, my husband and I set out looking for letters. We took our own photographs in some of our favorite places around town. Not all are local, as you can see from the Golden Gate Bridge, but most are from the Old Market area. Family benefited from the first round, as we gave them away for Christmas that year.
This project is a custom order I call Sweet LOVE!
Each frame was given a new life and re-purposed for this project. The frames were painted and waxed.
Each letter was printed on metallic paper, which in the right light gives off a snazzy little bit of dazzle.
Since its all custom, so is the matting. Each mat board was hand cut to size.
Edges were slightly distressed.
What a fun project!
I can still remember where we took each photograph,
and the days we spent trying to capture different letters in everyday objects.
I am thrilled to share this personalized letter photography, and
I hope the new owners love it as much as I do!
Thanks for visiting!
