Prints FAQ

• BUYING PRINTS:

To purchase any photo in the galleries simply click on the photo and then click the little shopping cart found at the top, add the required size from the list, click 'View Cart' then proceed to the 'Checkout' to finalise the purchase of your fantastic, new photographic wall art!

• PRINTING PAPER TYPE:

Photos are printed on Canon Océ Professional Satin Photo Paper 260gsm, an excellent quality photo paper, using genuine pigment inks that are lightfast for up to 100 years, high quality and provide fadeproof printing.

Satin, also referred to as lustre or semi-gloss, is a soft sheen paper which is halfway between gloss and matte.

Satin finish photo papers provide the full colour capability of gloss with a wide colour gamut and high resolution. Viewing images printed on satin paper is made easier by the low glare and light reflection off of this paper. Therefore, when displaying images behind glass, satin paper is generally preferred to minimise reflections.

If you would like your image to be printed on any other paper types or you have any questions please get in touch.

• PRINT SIZES:

There are 2 sizes for prints:

• PRINTS [STANDARD 'A' PAPER SIZES] - A1, A2, A3 and A4 paper sizes (n.b. these will fit in any standard A-size photo frame).
  

• PANORAMIC PRINTS [1:2 RATIO]

To see how any print will look you can simply add a photo to the 'Cart' and then click on 'Edit Crop'.

If you would like a bespoke size, please get in touch with me and I will tailor the photo to your preference for free.

N.B. Larger print sizes than those shown may be possible on request.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for help and I will answer any questions you may have!

• PRINT BORDERS:

There will be a narrow 3 mm white border around the print that will be hidden when placed in an A-size frame.

If you would like a larger border added to the photo please contact me and let me know the size required. Please note that this will not change the print size, for example, for a 10 mm border on an A3 print the printed area will be reduced to accommodate the border, the size of the print will not be extended and will remain as A3.

• CANVAS WRAPS:

Canvas wraps are hand-made and ready to hang on your wall. Images will be printed onto a 280gsm matt canvas with fade resistant inks and then mounted onto an 18mm pine box frame. The canvas wrap will come bubble-wrapped and packed in a custom made box for protection.

An assorted selection of canvas wrap sizes available for purchase are shown based on those provided by the printers I will be using.

To see how much a print size will crop a photo, you can click 'Buy', then select a 'Quantity' of 1, click on 'View Cart' and then 'Edit Crop'. Please note that I can effectively alter almost any photo to fit the available sizes.
