Published on May 10, 2023
Photographic Prints are tangible representations of the memories you help people create. With a variety of sizes and finishing options, there are so many ways you can share them. If you're looking to do a little more than just a Lustre Print, we're here to fulfill your creative vision! In fact, since 1978, we have been providing photographers with reliable, high-quality photofinishing options, and it's still the core of what we do today.
We've put together the top 3 trends in photo printing that will take your typical, everyday Photo Prints to the next level. See which one best suits your style.
1. Adding Lustre Coating
Lustre Coating applies a matte finish to your Lustre Photo Prints while also providing protection from fingerprints and slight scratches. Lustre Coating is available for small format prints, 11×14″ and smaller. For protection on larger size prints, try a Protective Lamination.
2. Printing on Deep Matte Paper
Show off your images on a paper that fits your editing style. This luxurious photo paper has a truly matte surface that is silky to the touch. With its elegant, subdued colors, Deep Matte is ideal for skin tones, soft images, and black and whites. Your darkest blacks will appear slightly lighter to reveal more detail.
It isn’t just for Photo Prints; you can also choose Deep Matte paper for your Wall Displays and Albums!
3. Mounting Your Prints on Styrene
One of the best ways to protect and deliver your prints is by getting them mounted. Styrene is a 3mm plastic substrate that does not warp and can easily be framed or stored. With mounted prints, you can prevent your client's images from bending and creasing while showing the quality of prints you can provide. Styrene is available in black or white and in a variety of sizes.
