Canvas Prints From Photos
Printing photos on canvas has become one of the most popular ways to show off your favourite images, and canvas prints are a must have décor accessory, but what photos work best?
Choosing the right photo is important to get the best results. Whether your photographic image is a scenic, portrait or still-life, here are a few basic tips to follow.
Canvas Gallery Wrap - Make sure the subject of your photo is clear and will fit the size you’re interested in. The frames we use are 5cm thick, which means 5cm on all four sides of your photo would be gallery-wrapped around the frame. We can also stretch your canvas over a 2.5cm frame on request. Please state whether you’d like your photo gallery-wrapped when you place your order.
Resolution – The ideal resolution for printing on canvas is usually at least 150dpi, but this can depend on the size you choose. A 50cm x 40cm canvas print would need an image of about 3000×2362 pixels. If you’re not sure whether your photo is suitable to be printed as a canvas print, then email it to us for free photo consultation, where we’ll check your photo to find out how much it can be enlarged.
Cropping – Canvas prints from photos are made to order and we offer almost any size and aspect ratio. Popular aspect ratios we produce include 3:2, 4:3, square and panoramic format prints. When choosing a size make sure it fits the aspect ratio of your photo to avoid any cropping. If cropping is required we’ll contact you straight away to send a proof showing how much would be cropped and we’ll give you the option of selecting a different size.
