One of the most common questions I receive is, “Where do I print my photos?” It’s tough to know where to start looking! The places to print professional photos vary wildly in price and quality. Why? Not all print companies operate with professional photography in mind. The vibrant color profiles used in professionally edited images often exceed what standard printers can reproduce. Most of us have been the recipient of a terrible photo print at one time or another. How can you avoid this again? Understanding which printers deliver true-to-color, high-quality results can feel overwhelming. Drug stores offer photo departments but leave much to be desired in the final print product. Professional printers excel in quality, but their product catalogs can often look like a Cheesecake Factory menu. There are so many options that we end up abandoning our order altogether! That’s why using a print lab vetted and tested by your photographer is the best way to ensure your photos are printed with care and precision. Print products should be evaluated side-by-side with the edited image on a color-calibrated monitor to maintain consistency.

Let’s Make Printing Your Professional Photos as Easy as Possible…

I know life is busy.  As a mom of two rambunctious daughters I am fully aware that many days us parents are at our capacity.  Even one additional task can feel like too much. Many of the little things that lack a deadline get pushed off into oblivion.  I see it happen with family photos all the time.  You WANT those images.  The desire to hang the feeling of this moment on your walls to remember forever is so strong.  Finally, you get the images! The memories are beautiful. You’re so glad you and can look back at this moment and reminisce about those sweet details of the past.  They’re digital files, so you store them in the cloud to deal with them later.  Two years later you realize that you’ve only ever seen them on your screen. Finding where to print your professional photos shouldn’t require additional time and effort.

What Good are Professional Photos that Only Live on Our Screen?

What good are photos if not displayed in our homes to bring nostalgia and fond memories? We’re in an age where photo albums are no longer a fixture in every home. Digital files have made things easy to obtain, but I’d argue that we’re losing the ability to enjoy the emotion behind those photos.

And even if you are one of the gems who prints your images off immediately, it can be tough to know where to have them printed! When I got married, I was gifted a wall canvas of the first kiss from a relative. I remember opening it and almost laughing because the white dress I wore was completely omitted from the print—as if no ink had ever touched the canvas where the dress should have been. No details at all. Just a big white blob with my happy little head on top. My relative was so kind to send us this memory, but they had no knowledge of printing quality differences and had opted for a drugstore printing option. The issue? Most printers do not have the same color range and color-matching capabilities of professional-quality printers.

For photographs that bring vibrant colors and high contrast ranges into their images (guilty! I LOVE a vibrant edit!), the printer can really make or break the shot. Photographers like me have a deep understanding of how editing style and printer technology must align. Bright colors, high contrast, and specific color tones need a printer that can handle a wide, nuanced color gamut.

How Can I Help You Actually Print Those Memories?

I’ve taken the guesswork out of it for you. I’ve partnered with a printer I trust to deliver your images with unrivaled quality at quick speeds. Miller’s Professional Imaging works closely with photographers to match quality and color so that the client can be confident in the caliber of the product. When you book a session with me, you’ll have access to Miller’s professional printing services directly through your online gallery—no downloading or re-uploading needed. I’ll save you a little time so that you can put your energy into the moments that count.

Steps For Printing The Memories for Display

Once you get your gallery, you’re only a few clicks away from hanging the memories in your home. No need to download and re-upload. You simply select your favorite images and purchase from a curated selection of high-quality photo products chosen specifically to complement the vibrant editing style I’m known for.

Step one: Get your photos!

Your photos will be delivered in a digital gallery via Shoot Proof. This offers a seamless experience for choosing your favorites and downloading your photos. You’ll be led to your gallery delivery page. Click “view gallery” and you will be able to favorite and select individual images for download.

Step Two: Pick Your Photos and Products for Print

At the top of your gallery page you will see a “store” tab. Click into that and you will see a list with product options (both print and digital) available for purchase. You can select products of interest and then pick the photos you would like to apply to that product.

Here I have selected a canvas and opted for an 8×12 size. Note that because canvases wrap the image around the frame, the crop will always be closer in. If you want a wider crop on an image to allow for a canvas, please reach out. I’m happy to adjust your image to ensure it prints beautifully.

Step Three: Enjoy Your Printed Professional Photos for Years to Come!

Your memories deserve more than just a spot in the cloud—they deserve a place on your walls, in your hands, and in your heart.
