I refuse to force images into standard sizes such as 8 by 10. With my approach the image determines the final dimensions of the print.
Thus, I price by paper sizes and it is important that you understand that the printed image will not fill the entire page.
* First, I do not print edge to edge. There will be .25 of an inch border on the prints.
* Second, I print to maximize the image size on the paper. Thus, I fill the paper for the long measurement and the short measurement is determined by the image. For example, for 8.5 by 11 paper the image size could be 10.5 inches by 7 inches.
This is why I also include a matt with each print. I cut the mattes to fit standard frame sizes and then center the print in the matt. Mattes are of acid neutral material and are in a clean white color. The print is tacked in place with acid neutral tape and a acid neutral backing sheet is included. When you frame the picture be sure to include the acid neutral backing sheet because not all framing materials are acid neutral. This sheet provides a buffer between the print and any acidic framing materials.

You may order using the e-mail connection, the fax connection and by mail. You may pay with cash, Visa, Master Card, personal check or money order. I will process and ship your order promptly after your payment has cleared. Cash and credit card charges may be cleared on the first business day after receipt. Checks will take longer for me to confirm payment.
If you send cash, which the post office does not like, be sure it is not obvious that cash is included.
Because my e-mail connection is not totally secure, do not use this option to send me your credit card number. For credit card orders use the mail or the fax connection. For credit card orders the bank has asked that you be sure to include:
- Visa or Master Card
- Credit Card Number
- Expiration Date
- Three digit security code on the back of the card (This is found at the end of your credit card number on the back of the card)
- The name as it appears on the card
- The billing address for the card
- A telephone number where you can be reached
- A signature (as you would sign a charge slip)
