I really like to frame my 20×24 photographs to at least 24×30 inches, that is, if I’m buying a standard size frame and doing it myself. But I much prefer custom framing for images larger than 11×14. Big pictures can be difficult to handle making it easier to get kinked plus if you use a professional framer you can opt for a nice wide mat and there are many more choices for frames. If you’ve chosen to do it yourself there isn’t a huge selection out there but here are some to get you started.

All frames shown here will require additional matting, check Michaels first before you get one custom cut.
As always, double check frame size before making your purchase, some companies list measurements for the window mat while others give the dimensions for the frame itself.
Many frames of this size use plexiglass instead of glass because it’s lighter, making it easier to hang. Look it over carefully to make sure the glazing is going to work for you.
Where to Hang a 20×24 Photograph
20×24 photographs look great hanging in large spaces such as above a couch, bed, or sideboard.
You can see our recent suggestions for framing other standard sizes here: 8×10, 11×14, and 16×20 inch photographs.
