How to Order Prints

How to Order

Preserve memories of one of life’s most special events with beautiful prints. There are three ways to order prints:

The first four digits of the ID number are all that's needed. For example, the first photo in your proofs may be something like 0001-IMG-9305.jpg — for that photo I would just need the 0001.

Types of Prints

1. Proofs

Proofs are the 4x6" prints that are included with some of my services, or offered as an add-on. All Proofs receive basic adjustments for brightness, color and contrast. Proofs are printed as a batch and cannot be ordered individually. Proofs are generally uncropped. Traditionally, "proofs" were not final prints but rather small trial prints for making selections and corrections before final printing.

2. Standard Prints

Standard Prints receive the same basic adjustments as Proofs, but are available in various sizes and can be ordered individually. They are printed on Kodak Endura paper. Standard prints are less expensive than Custom Prints and are perfect for photos that require no retouching. Cropping is available.

3. Custom Prints

Custom Prints are recommended for all portraits. Retouching is included in the cost of each print and typically removes blemishes, reflections, eyeglass glare, facial shine and stray hairs. These prints may also have further refinements such as dodging and burning. They are printed on either (a) Fuji Professional Luster paper if ordered directly from me by email or phone, or (b) Kodak Endura Paper if ordered online via our partner lab (currently Pictage). Cropping is available.

4. Fine Art Prints

These are the most expensive option. I make Fine Art Prints personally using archival carbon-based inks, and sign each one on the back. I can choose from papers in various tones and textures. Fine Art Prints are more sensitive to handling, but less sensitive to light. When matted and framed, they are the longest-lasting.
