Photograph Prints and Framing

Typically, my images will print very well at 16x24 inches (not including framing). Some images can be printed larger. If you need large prints for large wall spaces, ask me about large prints. My largest print to date was printed on sectional wallpaper and the final size was 85x115 inches, but that required advance planning to capture the necessary volume of pixels.

Prints are made on a variety of different materials, including C-print (light-sensitive paper), inkjet (glicée) on paper, canvas, or aluminum. The choice of material may be influenced by the particular image, may be a personal aesthetic choice, or possibly a matter of durability in an environment with kids. I can make excellent inkjet prints on paper and I also use the services of preferred print labs.

Good old-fashion light-sensitive photo paper is known as a C-print. This type of printing was standard before the advent of digital cameras and the process is still used today. Though the traditional condensing enlarger is replaced with a digital version, the paper and chemical processing is basically the same as fifty years ago.

Alternatively, inkjet printing can make prints on a wide variety of papers with different tone, texture, surface sheen and contrast.

A print on paper is typically displayed behind a sheet of protective non-glare glass or acrylic. For both durability during shipping and safety when displayed in homes, I recommend acrylic instead of glass.

Prints on textured canvas provide a very different look. A canvas print may be displayed with a decorative floating frame or as a borderless gallery wrap. While the texture of a canvas print conveys a unique beauty, it is typically displayed without protective glass or acrylic and is potentially vulnerable in any space where physical objects might be thrown around.

Printing on aluminum provides a modern and durable display that does not require a protective sheet of glass or acrylic. A print on aluminum is typically displayed without a border frame. However, I can design a custom frame for a more traditional look.
