Print FAQ / Ordering Help

To assist you in your fine art print selection, please read the guide below.

Size

My standard landscape images are natively formatted in a 3:2 ratio. While alternative aspect ratios are gladly available, please note that changing the shape may require slight intentional cropping. If you need a specific custom dimension, head down to the Special Orders section below.

Have a frame already? Check the measurements of the frame by measuring the back of the frame from inside edge to inside edge or the glass size. Also consider if you’ll have a matte board surrounding the print.

If you don’t have a frame, consider how big the space is that will be housing the print and also the viewing distance. For example, while a large print will cover lots of wall space, it might not look best in a narrow hallway, but rather over a fireplace, mantle or dining area.

Once you’ve chosen the size, use the drop down menu to select a size to fit a frame or a space. Please make sure you check the orientation of the print prior to purchase.

Don’t see the size you need? Contact me with the size you need. I can print from 4x4 to 40x60 and can fit most frame sizes.

Mediums

Below are some descriptions of the different mediums offered. If you still need help contact me and I can help your make the right choice. You’ll find medium suggestions for each print inside of the descriptions.

Luster Paper - $ - Classic and beautiful, its colors are rich and life-like with true blacks and pure whites. It has a slight reflective sheen with a very subtle texture. I love this as it is not overly glossy and does have a slight texture to it. It’s my favorite paper and will look great on almost all my prints.

Glossy Paper - $ - This distinctively bright and bold paper brings a slick, contemporary look to your print. Colors are saturated, and whites are brilliant.  Glossy offers the widest color range and texture, but it also has quite a glare to it and can show fingerprints.  Rest assured; it’s quite a durable paper, and you can usually wipe off fingerprints easily. This paper is great for colorful images such as sunsets and sunrises.

Metallic Paper - $$ - Metallic paper has a unique sheen for stunning impact and depth.  The most dramatic paper for colors that jump right off the print and black and whites that shimmer and shine! Its surface is smooth and reflective. This paper is a little more than the rest, but the splurge is justified when you see the results. I love my stars and milky way photos on this paper.

Matte - $$ - Those with significant photo experience and an appreciation of nuanced imagery. A more expensive paper option. Not recommended for work with dense shadows and rich blacks.

Deep Matte - $$ -Those with an appreciation for nuanced fine art imagery will appreciate Deep Matte paper. Sophisticated, artful scenes benefit from the depth and detail of this paper. Deep Matte has a smooth finish and a velvet touch, but is not recommended for work with dense shadows and rich blacks.

Fine Art Paper - $$$ - The most expensive paper option is available in 3 textures: Sustainable Bamboo (Low texture), Traditional Watercolor (Medium texture), Coarse Art (Heavy texture). Texture type will be confirmed per print after ordering.

Canvas - $$$ - If you like the classic art feel, canvas might be the right fit for you. Printed on high-quality, heavyweight canvas that will provide that real artistic feel. Each Canvas Print is protected by a UV coating to shield from scratches or light damage. Canvas Prints are stretched onto a sturdy wood frame, so they come ready to hang and are carefully inspected for quality.

Metal - $$$$ - Prints are heat infused onto a sheet of durable aluminum using dye-sublimation. Metal Prints remain stunningly vibrant for a lifetime. No fading or staining, 100% heat & water resistant, dry-erasable and easy to clean. I typically print these with a floating wall mount, but easel, or pedestal are available by special request prior to ordering. This is by far the most expensive medium, but also the most modern and visually stunning.

Acrylic - $$$$$ - The ultimate combination of superior materials, technology and production techniques, our sleek HD acrylic prints and blocks provide modern, high-definition impact wherever they're displayed. Crisp, sharp, and vibrant colors are printed on polished, optical-grade acrylic. Quarter inch "Wall" Acrylic prints are backed with a sleek aluminum for added durability. The result is a studio-quality product that will fit any decor, suitable for personal or professional settings.
