Calendars

Framed and Mounted Prints

Due to the wide variety of frames and high shipping costs, SteamPhotos.com does not offer frames with traditional glossy, matte, and lustre prints. With print sizes ranging from 4x6" to 24x36", there's a print size for nearly any desired frame.

Most photos are available for purchase on heavy duty PremierArt Water Resistant Canvas, finished with a Giclee Satin Matte Clear Coat for UV and water resistance. The canvas is stretched and wrapped over a wooden frame, so the photo covers the sides of the frame for a beautiful presentation. Mounted canvas prints are available in sizes ranging from 8x10" to 30x40" dependent on the resolution and proportions of a photo.

Print Sizes & Cropping

SteamPhotos.com offers prints ranging in size from 4x6" to 24x36". These print sizes range in proportions from 2:3 (i.e. 8x12" print) to 4:5 (i.e. 8x10" print). You're welcome to choose from any available size, but may need to use the cropping tool during checkout if the the print proportions do not match the original photo. If you have difficulty obtaining the desired print size for a photo, please contact me for assistance.
