PRINT SURFACES

​

Glossy photos are printed on coated paper with a very smooth, shiny reflective surface. Glossy finishes have a high-contrast appearance and look slick to the touch when not under glass. This finish has an excellent dynamic range and color - slightly more "pop" than the matte paper, though less noticeable once framed.

​

• Photos will have a shiny finish.

• Colors are vibrant.

• Images are crisp and sharp (assuming the original photo was in focus).

• Glossy finish does not produce a textured look when scanned and converted to digital.

​

 

Matte photos have a very smooth, non-glare finish. Matte finishes have a lower-contrast when printed and are often used to enhance the texture of a print and may be best suited for framing.

​​

• Fingerprints and smudges are not as visible.

• Works very well with black-and-white photographs.

• Glare is significantly reduced with matte-finish prints.

 

 

Lustre paper is the premier paper most preferred by portrait and wedding photographers and is considered more of a professional-grade paper. Lustre has a slight gloss with a subtle, often pearl-like texture. Lustre paper has a deeper color saturation than matte and is thicker and has a higher contrast than
consumer paper.

​

• Fingerprints and smudges are not as visible

• Anti glare

• Pro quality paper

• Great for framing

• Excellent for wedding photos

​

Metallic paper is extremely durable and produces an almost chrome-like burnished appearance; photographers have described the look as “chrome on paper.” The glossy finish and metallic look of this paper will enable you to create prints with exceptional visual interest and depth. The proprietary laminate layers also increase the durability and tear resistance of the final print, increasing the opportunities for display applications.

​

• Striking, distinctive, eye-catching metallic look

• Increased color gamut for rich impact and intense blacks to enhance print appeal

• Exceptional sharpness, brightness, and color saturation

• Optimized for digital printing

​

METAL PRINTING

​

Metal prints (Recommended) represent a new art medium for preserving photos by infusing dyes directly into specially coated aluminum sheets to hang directly onto the wall. This is what I hang in my Gallery and are the best way to present a photo. Your images will take on a magical luminescence. You've never seen a more brilliant and impressive print! Colors are vibrant and the luminescence is breathtaking. Detail and resolution are unsurpassed.
