For the past 3 or 4 weeks I have spent an inordinate amount of time searching for suppliers of various components and materials that I need to mount, mat, and frame large prints. After hitting endless dead ends with some of Calgary’s local art suppliers I decided that I would need to take my shopping list online if I wanted to find the things I was looking for. In the end I was able to locate everything I needed and after placing a half dozen product orders to suppliers in both Canada and the United States boxes slowly began arriving on my doorstep this week. Acid free foam core backs and conservation single mats, frame sealing tape, buffered hinging tape, frame backing paper, and a handful of other essential components and tools. Everything individually selected to be of the finest quality and provide the safest long-term solution to displaying my custom artwork for my clients.

The results of my efforts can be seen in the images that I have included with this post. Even though it is tough to tell from the images each of the framed prints are a whopping 17″ x 22″ and have been matted to fit a 22″ x 28″ contemporary black wooden frame. I’m currently offering 2 additional smaller sizes and will be assembling a few samples of each to allow clients to see for themselves just how amazing their photos could look when printed at these large sizes, framed, and hanging on the wall. I will have all of these sample prints available for viewing during proofing and ordering sessions along with plenty of advice on which of your images would be best suited for one (…or more) of these beautiful contemporary frames.

Framed prints are available additions to any of our wedding and lifestyle portrait bundles and include a bonus 4″ x 6″ and 5″ x 7″ printed copy of the image that is selected for framing. If you would like to find out more or want to book a wedding or lifestyle portrait session please use the form on our contact page to send us your details and we will get in touch.
