frequently asked questions

What is the difference between paper types on which your photos are printed?
Epson Cold Press Bright Textured Matte Paper is a 100% cotton rag media with a bright, textured matte finish. This fine art paper is not only acid, lignin, and chlorine free, it is also pH buffered with calcium carbonate for a true archival sheet made of long-term durability to preserve fine art photos. This paper has a bright white base and an extremely high D-max wide colour gamut making for brilliant colours, deep blacks, striking contrasts and perfect reproduction of detail, lending each artwork a three-dimensional appearance and impressive pictorial depth. My current go-to for fine art printing!!

Hahnemühle Photo Rag Paper is an acid free, 100% cotton artist’s paper that is matte with a semi-gloss looking finish. A true archival sheet made of long-term durability to preserve fine art photos. This paper produces outstanding prints that feature brilliant colours, deep blacks, striking contrasts and perfect reproduction of detail lending each artwork a three-dimensional appearance and impressive pictorial depthUnfortunately, it’s rare and hard to find a printer who still has it available – but! - luckily you still can enjoy it through the artwork that I have offered printed on it!

Epson Enhanced Matte Paper is a great flat Matte surface paper. It yields highly saturated images while maintaining excellent highlight and shadow detail. I find it to be a great paper for creating cards and other mounted images but also looks great framed!
How should I frame my art print?
Since you are ordering a high-quality fine art print, we recommend having the print professionally framed to get the best result. You should be able to find a professional framing store in your area to provide a quote for having your print framed. Some professional photography and/or craft stores also offer framing services.If you live in the Toronto or the GTA I highly recommend Adina Photo Custom Framing.
