As many of our readers know, Tiny Prints is a stationery company that is often recognized for our distinctive photo cards.  With so many customers sending us their family photos day in and day out, we are often impressed by the quality of images that cross our desks.  In fact, we were so impressed by the photos of this one photographer that we just had to share her work with you.

Photographer, Holly Port, became a full-time photographer after the birth of her own children.  After starting her own family, she found that her inspiration was fueled by the newness of photographing each child and watching them grow and change over the years.

Holly’s work is warm, easy-going and fun and at Tiny Prints we love her work so much that you will likely spot it in many of our sample products on our website.  You can find some examples below:

As you may know Tiny Prints offers a great way to share important life events and family photos on personal stationery.  However, I bet some of your are you wondering how you can take all of the amazing photos and turn them into practical stationery that you can use every day.

Well, wonder no more, because we have just launched some new photo notes and stationery products to help give you a better idea.

I personally love the idea of alternative family portraits, like this one from Jennifer Bowen Photography in Scottsdale Arizona. It’s nice to have a picture of your family all together, posing and looking nice for the camera, but I think there’s irresistible charm in capturing a real-life moment. Especially with the photo holiday card season ramping up here at Tiny Prints, we all tend to ooh and ahh over the photos that show some unexpected side of a family’s personality.

Would you consider taking alternative family portraits for your holiday cards, or would you limit your holiday photo card to a less personal, posed snapshot? What do you think about unconventional family portraits? You tell us!
