How to choose photos for your magnets

There are so many images we could choose.
The sunsets.
The birthdays.
The perfectly framed smiles.

But often, the photos that mean the most aren’t the “perfect” ones at all.

They’re the ones that feel like home.

When you’re choosing photos to turn into magnets, try starting with feeling instead of composition.
Ask yourself:

Where were we?
Who was there?
What do I remember most about this moment?

The messy ones count.
The out-of-focus ones count.
The ones where someone’s hair is wild from the wind or the baby is still in swimmers from the beach — those hold something real.

You might look for:

• A moment that makes you breathe a little slower
• A place you love deeply
• A person you want to remember exactly as they were in that second
• A memory that still feels warm when you think of it

Don’t worry about perfection.
Worry about truth.

The magnets aren’t meant to be gallery pieces —
they’re meant to be the story of your life, right now, just as it is.

If a photo makes you smile without thinking… choose that one.
If your heart softens when you look at it… that’s the one.

That’s how you know.
