Can you believe it is already time for Valentines Day? It certainly snuck up on me and I am sure that it has snuck up on some of you too.

In all seriousness, we actually do have some cute photo gift ideas that you can have ready by tomorrow. And, they are all super thoughtful gifts that will leave you both feeling all warm and fuzzy. As Orlando engagement photographers, we have curated a great list of easy photo gifts that they will adore!
Framed Print
Simple right? But it’s the meaning behind it that makes it such a special gift. In the digital age, we are used to seeing our pictures on a screen. Printing out a cute memory and framing it nicely makes for a unique gift that will definitely make a statement. It will show how much you care about that moment and it’s a gift that you can easily get done in 24 hours if you go to your favorite local print lab. It may be a wedding portrait, a silly snapshot or a photo from when you visited Disney World together. All that matters is that it’s a special memory for you! It can be a small 5×7 frame for their desk or a larger print for that empty wall space you have been meaning to fill. Either way, it’s a super thoughtful gift that doesn’t take a lot of time.
