Gallery Wrap, Mirror Wrap or No Wrap

On some photographs, important details are near the edge. Examine your photo: if there are details on the extremities, these might be wrapped over the sides particularly on small canvas prints sizes or on our 4.5cm deep frames.

You can choose how you want us to finish the canvas wrap. The choice is made in the shopping cart from Gallery Wrap, or Mirror Wrap, or No Wrap.

Other Photo Submission Considerations

Cropping and margins
We can crop your image however you like: to remove unwanted features or to make something in your photo more prominent. When you make your order, though, be sure to include these instructions in the notes! With regards to margins, we like to wrap the image round the edge of the canvas print. We think this looks much better and will prepare your canvas this way by default. When choosing your photo, its always wise to use one that has a little freedom round the margins.

Downloading from the web
Typically web images are of low resolution and low quality, not to mention potential copyright issues! Again, though, take a look at the file size.

If in doubt
Don't worry! there are lots of things we can do in our studio, and we want you to be thrilled by your framed canvas. If there is any problem we can foresee with your order, we will of course contact you to try to work it out.

Greyscale
We can make any image greyscale for you, and on some photographs it can really bring out the best in the subject. We can make an image greyscale, sepia, or another monotone or duotone free of charge. simply specify it on the order notes when you upload your picture.

Red-eye and other blemishes
We also reduce red-eye, remove date-stamps and do small bits of retouching free of charge. If there is an area of concern, all you have to do is highlight it on the notes when you upload. Mostly it is common sense though, and our studio will try to pick up anything that may spoil the look of your canvas print.
