The answer

The questioner's action involves two issues:

First: Printing a personal photo on glass. We advise avoiding this to steer clear of controversy.

Second: The questioner knows that the photo will be acquired to be hung in a house. This is not permissible because it prevents the entry of angels and is a probable cause for veneration.

Therefore, the questioner should refrain from printing personal photos that are known to be hung on walls by their owners.
