How to Print It Yourself

Printing at home or through a local print shop is easy. Here are a few tips:

• File format: High-resolution digital file suitable for printing up to 24" x 36"
• Home printing: Use matte or semi-gloss photo paper for best results — avoid standard copy paper
• Local print shops: Staples, FedEx Office, and Walgreens Photo all offer affordable large-format printing
• Online printing: Services like Printful, Canva Print, or Nations Photo Lab deliver directly to your door
• Paper tip: For a gallery feel, ask for heavyweight matte fine art paper (also called "lustre" or "archival" paper)
• Framing: Standard frame sizes like 8x10, 11x14, 16x20, or 18x24 work great — just scale the file to fit
