Paper Prints

Prints are available in lustre, glossy, and pearl finish. Lustre is recommended for most photos as it provides the vibrant colors of glossy with the fingerprint and glare-resistant finish of traditional matte. Pearl finish (+$5) is an excellent alternative to lustre, especially for night photos, producing a print with extreme sharpness, brightness, and color saturation for a three-dimensional appearance. All photos are printed on professional Kodak or Fuji paper.

Metal Prints

The mounting blocks hold the print away from the wall for a contemporary float effect.

Wood Prints

Ink is printed directly on half-inch thick maple wood board for a warm and natural feel. The grain and wood texture will show through the lighter areas of the print. A half-inch unprinted border provides a natural "frame" of wood. Wood Prints arrive ready-to-hang with a half-inch thick wood hanger. The hanger holds the print away from the wall for a contemporary float effect.

ThinWraps

A satin-laminated print is wrapped around sturdy 3/16" thick Gatorboard. ThinWraps arrive ready-to-hang with 3/4" thick lightweight foam blocks with pre-drilled holes. The mounting blocks hold the print away from the wall for a contemporary float effect.

Available finishes:

Traditional Canvas

Heavy canvas is stretched and wrapped over a 1-3/8" thick wood frame, then finished with a dry lamination process for UV and water resistance. Canvases arrive ready-to-hang with sawtooth hanger, corner bumpers, and paper backing.

Note that the photo extends to cover the sides of the frame for a unique presentation. As a result, approximately 1-1/2" of all outer edges will not be visible when viewed directly from the front. A visual indication of these wrapped areas is provided when you add any canvas to the shopping cart.
