8x10s, wallets, 4x6s and ?? 

I can print anything from a mini wallet to prints 4ftx4ft.  I can also print custom sizes. 

At my studio I have various sizes of prints hanging on my walls.  Oftentimes clients look around and tell me they want "that size" and its usually the 16x20!  I always get a little excited when this happens because I have that size hanging in my house and I know that this will be beautifully displayed in their home!  Its big, but not to big. Its my favorite.  So, lets talk a little bit about photographic prints.  I print on lustre paper.  That's the kind of paper you get when you get your kids school pictures.  In my opinion it the best looking paper.  I can print on metallic, pearl, glossy (YUCK), textured paper and there are some other ones that are not...good looking.    I always recommend clients mount their print when they order sizes larger than 11x14.  Paper car warp and ripple.  Add some ink to the paper and a large piece of paper and it warps or ripples under the weight.  Mounting the print gives it sturdiness and durability.  Mounting a print  simply means that a print is glued to a semi-rigid or rigid material, like foam core, styrene or matboard.  The print when mounted will still fit into picture frames.   l leave this up to you!  I do strongly recommend having you print mounted and I only charge clients what the lab charges me to mount it.  It does not profit me if you mount it but it WILL profit you!    

It is important to think about the size of your print in terms of, how wide or thin it is.  For example, a 16x20 is more square and will crop differently thank a 16x24 which is more like a rectangle.  This will affect how much of your picture is cropped in or out.  Some portraits will crop bad (cut too much important stuff out) at 16x24 while others there is room to take of extra without loosing anything important.  I am happy to go over any questions you may have and walk you through the process!
