Print Size Matters

The studio has been hopping with photo restorations and custom photo necklaces and keychains.

Until I am able to share some of our restorations, I wanted to remind everyone that the print size you choose for your photos does matter.

Not all print sizes are the same.

Photos can be printed at a variety of sizes such as 4x6, 5x7, and 8x10. Many can be formatted to be printed in landscape (longest side along top and bottom), or portrait (longest side along left and right) mode.

The ability to print at these sizes and modes depends on the size of the original file. 

A common misconception is that photos can be printed exactly the same as a 4x6, 5x7, and 8x10. 

There are, however, slight differences among the print sizes.  

The following graphic shows the same image as it was cropped as an 8x10, 5x7, and 4x6. 



The 8x10 photo contains everything from the original photo. As the photo size gets smaller, less of the window and cabinets are visible.

Unless told otherwise, our restoration experts try to keep as much of the original image as possible when we print the same photo in multiple sizes.

What can our experts do for you?

It's been a while

Sorry it has been so long since I have shared anything, but my kidney issues have made it difficult for me to spend much time in the studio....
