How to Frame your own pictures (or anything really)

Once you have ventured out with your camera and taken a photo you're really proud of, the most rewarding thing you can do is get your photo framed professionally.

Originally I was using a print lab to print my photos and a framer to frame them, but the cost meant I couldn't get many done.

The cost of framing is mainly in the labour, if you're happy to put about an hour of time into making your own frame you can save a fair bit of the costs.

In this video I will take you step by step through my process for framing a photo.

Here's a list of the equipment needed to frame your photos - links to the products on Amazon
