The classic way to present your portrait images is to have prints made - we can supply any size from 4x6 inches through to 30x40 inches and beyond.

For local customers we have our own in-house printing facility, while for clients from overseas we have prints made at a professional lab in the USA. Every image is individually inspected and adjusted by our own staff, and hand-retouched if appropriate.

For regular photo prints, we offer glossy or lustre print finishes. Glossy is assumed unless you specify otherwise on your order.

Any image can be printed in black-and-white or sepia at no extra cost.

"Watercolor" prints

If you'd like something a little out of the ordinary, why not have your favorite images printed as "watercolor prints"? Available in sizes from 11x14 upwards, these prints are made on a matt, textured paper, similar to that used by watercolor artists. The inks and paper used are fully archival and fade-resistant. As a no-cost option you can have a soft edge to the image (see example to the right).

Canvas "gallery wraps"

Another popular choice is to have an enlargement made and printed onto canvas, then wrapped around a wooden frame. The result is a very stylish look that blends the traditional feel of canvas with a contemporary flair. Gallery wraps are ready to hang on the wall - no framing needed.

When choosing an image for printing with this technique, it's important to remember that the outer edges of the image will be wrapped around the frame. So choose a photo that has plenty of space around the subject, otherwise important details may be wrapped around the frame. This matters more with small gallery wraps than bigger ones, since with bigger sizes proportionally less of the image area is used in the wrap.

There are two thicknesses available - 1.5 inches (illustrated) and 2.5 inches. The canvas is protected by a glossy or matte protective laminate - please let us know which finish you would prefer.

"Fine Art" prints

Make your favorite portrait image truly unique with this amazing option. Our artist will rework your photo to give it the look of a classical painting - in the style of oils, pastels, or watercolor, according to what works best for the subject. When presented on canvas (as in the example above) the result is truly stunning.

However, if you prefer, your fine art image can be printed on regular photographing paper or watercolor paper for framing in the traditional manner. Each fine art image is an individual work of art that involves many hours of hand craftsmanship to complete.

Standouts

A "standout" is a regular print bonded to a lightweight backing board, edged with a black plastic trim. The result is a neat and tidy modern-looking print that is ready-to-hang (mounting holes are provided on the back of the standout) and lies flush against the wall surface.

Standouts can be supplied in a variety of sizes, and look especially good when hung together in a group.
