Photo Printing

[William Lewis]

Eventually I want to get to the point where I can print and mount my photos to try and sell them to the tourist trade up here in Northern Wisconsin.

In the meantime, I want to get some prints done to experiment with gifts and possibly testing the selling waters. I'm especially interested in up to 16x20 as the Epson P900 I'm looking at takes 17" rolls.

Does anyone have a preferred printing service? While there is a Walgreens just down the street, I don't think they do as big a print as I hope to go and the last time I tried to get a square print done there, well, let's just say they didn't understand....

Thanks!

Whitewall is a high end German photolab doing prints for anyone from enthusiast amateur to big name pros and museums. They ship wirldwide, and so far I've been very pleased with them (2 HD Metal prints and 1 photopaper behind matte acrylic).

Not the cheapest around, but especially for larger sizes often cheaper than smaller high end labs.

I decided to try Shutterfly first. After I've seen what they do with the 8x10 "art print" I'll probably check out Whitewall. Thank you for the suggestion.

Whitewall looks like the real deal. My concern is getting prints on matte finish. I'll explore the site. Thanks
