Do you print on traditional photo paper?
We do not produce any products printed on a glossy photo paper. We love the way matte paper showcases the natural details of an image, so we opt for this instead. The closest paper type to glossy we offer is our Lustre paper option.
Can I choose the paper type that my product is printed on?
You have a choice of paper type in our Layflat albums, our Hardcover Photo Books, and our Everyday Prints. We've pre-selected the paper choice for all other products based on what we've found prints the best.
Can I see a printed sample of my project before I order?
Due to the way our production line is set up, we cannot print sample pages, etc of any project prior to ordering.
