Is it ok to give him a picture in a frame? A professional photographer took a very nice pic of him with his family at the closing ceremony for a class he taught and I thought framing it and giving it to him as a gift would be nice. The only problem is I once visited the home of an Orthodox Rabbi(his wife was teaching a class) and they had no photos. I am not Orthodox but the Rabbi I am buying the gift for is. I don't know if photos in the home is acceptable. I wanted to buy it today and give it to him at a Chanukah party.

Yes, of course. Just be sure the people are dressed modestly.

You sound really thoughtful. A great gift idea. You have me wondering if the Rabbi is Lubavitch and if just they don't have pictures. If they are not Lubavitch, there is no ?

They may display them in a hall or family room but family photos are always treasured. Good choice!

Yes, many do have pictures, and there's no problem with it.
