Hello, Thanks in advance for any input.

I am displaying 5 prints at a local business. They will be there for 1 month and there will be a sign out front inviting the public to come in and view the art. I have never displayed any work before so I am super excited, yet nervous at the same time. I want to make sure that my photographs are displayed as professionaly as possible so I am asking for some input from you seasoned pros! They are all matted, mounted and framed. Should I display any information about the images?

Thanks again!

Amador

I like to give the title of the print and where and when it was taken. Having your business card or preferably artists cards for them to take with them would be helpful also. I had some 4x6 cards printed that have a small photo and our contact info on them. Something attractive enough for them to want to save (I hope).

Good luck with your show!
