What Is a Photo Mount?

A photo mount is a professional way of turning a printed photograph or artwork into a rigid, durable and display-ready wall piece. At Dezzies Mount in Nairobi, we create custom photo mounts using strong 9mm MDF and several premium finishing options.

1. PHOTO / ARTWORK
2. PROTECTIVE FINISH
3. 9MM MDF BOARD
4. BACKING / WALL FIXING
Understanding Photo Mounts

A photograph becomes a finished wall piece.

A photo mount is more than simply printing a picture. The photograph is professionally prepared and attached to a rigid backing so it can be displayed neatly on a wall.

In Kenya, photo mounting is popular for family portraits, wedding photographs, graduation pictures, studio photography, artwork, corporate displays and home décor.

At Dezzies Mount, our standard wooden photo mount uses 9mm MDF. This gives the finished piece a solid, substantial feel compared with a loose photographic print.

  • Strong 9mm MDF backing
  • Clean, professional presentation
  • Suitable for photographs and artwork
  • Multiple finishing styles
  • Available in different sizes
  • Ideal for homes, offices, photographers and gifts

Why mount a photograph?

A loose print can easily bend, curl or become difficult to display. Mounting gives the photograph structure and turns it into a ready-to-display piece.


The choice of finishing determines the final appearance. You can choose a simple MDF photo mount, add a decorative round edge, place the photograph inside a frame, or create a modern floated effect.


This makes photo mounting suitable for everything from everyday family photographs to premium wedding, portrait and fine-art displays.
