If you are going to mat them, you can use 3m magic mending tape around the edges to mount them to the backboard.Or you can use photo mounting spray, but be sure you have the picture right where you want it.

Sprays, or not environmental safe, but if you use them be sure to do so in a well vented area.
You can hinge them or tip them in
Here is a link with some tips

Two things to keep in mind.
1.) Unless you use a dry mount press or laminator, you risk the pictures coming loose over time. This will show as bubbles or curling. A problem with spraying is that getting an even, uniform layer of adhesive is difficult.
2.) Most people center the prints on the mat board. Quick and easy. The traditional way of positioning them is to offset them slightly to the top. There is a formula for that. If you are interested, send me a personal message.
Nothing as nice as a mounted, framed print. Probably my biggest gripe about digital photography. We have lost the art of displaying photos and selecting the very best images.

I agree, a mounted photo is so nice. Too many sit in an electonic file, never to be seen again. I think great shots should be mounted & shared.

One of my favorite tools is going to waste in storage, my dry mount press.
Tips, please, about dry mounting modern inkjet photo papers.

It is no different from mounting silver gelatin. Lower temperature than fiber papers, similar to color or RC papers.

Be careful with using sprays as they can be harmful to you and to the environment. If you can't dry mount, then consider tipping in or hinging as it requires very little equipment and the supplies can be found at most local hobby shops.

Thanks for providing such a helpful tip for me and our environment. Really, I did not know about the effects of sprays, so your tips will be very useful in the future.
