YOUR PHOTOS

 

Look to your collection of images to make custom
prints, framed prints, plaquemounts, or a stretched canvas.


1. CHOOSE YOUR IMAGE
The quality of your printed piece relies on the size and quality of the original. Generally, select an image that is in focus, has good lighting, and a good range of tones. Consider, too, the colour and style of the space in which your picture will be displayed.

RESOLUTION
See our Tech Spec page, or bring in or upload the original without any size or other adjustments, and we’ll advise.

RETOUCHING, CROPPING
Our designer can crop or retouch images to enhance them.


2. CHOOSE SIZE + SUBSTRATE
Consider the space in which your piece will reside to gauge what scale will feel appropriate. Also consider the type of paper and if you’ll frame, plaquemount or have it made as a stretched canvas. For details about our papers and their use, visit our Substrates page.


3. PROVIDE YOUR IMAGE
1. Upload your digital images to our site; or
2. Bring in a memory key, memory card, or disk

If you have an existing print or colour swatch you want matched to, please bring it in to accompany your order.

We are happy to look at your images to offer advice on resolution, size, and substrate. We provide an estimate for your approval before moving forward with a project.
