One of my popular themes, Photo Frame allows you to customize the photos in the middle frame. This time, I made a similar theme where you are not placing your photo in the standard frame. Instead, your photos/portraits are positioned inside an open torn paper with some depth.
I used grey as the main color to make the photo stand out in this theme. Hope you like the Rustic Portrait theme .
