What kind of paper should I choose?
For framed prints, my first choice is always metallic paper, and pearl fine art paper is a close second. The colors, especially blues, yellows and oranges really pop on those papers. Don't confuse metallic paper with metal! I'm stressing this because I've had customers get confused about this in the past.
Metal is actually a sheet of aluminum coated with a bright white finish. The fine details are outstanding, the color depth is life-like, and the images have a three-dimensional feel. I offer both matte and glossy finishes. Your choice depends on where they will hang. Glossy is my first choice for a home environment. Areas such as offices and lobbies, and very large prints, work better with a matte finish because it reduces the glare of reflected light.
Canvas is very popular. It fits just about anywhere and is easy to hang. I recommend glossy canvas, as it picks up the details much better than a matte finish.

HOW CAN I ORDER A LARGER PRINT THAN SHOWN ON THE ORDER PAGE?
Many of my images, especially the panoramas and high-resolution images, can be printed big enough to fill a wall. 8' high and 20' wide in some cases. The fulfillment lab doesn't handle those sizes, but I can take custom orders. Send your needs to support@wolkove.com and include the image name, desired size range, full contact and shipping information, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible with a custom quote. I'll never sell an image that looks pixelated and muddy at that size. You can be assured of a tack-sharp, high-resolution image where you'll find new details you never noticed before, every time you look at it. If I can't make it look that good, I won't make it at all.
HOW MUCH DOES SHIPPING COST?
Note: Orders placed after 10AM EST will go into production the next business day. Please allow 1 additional day if your order placement, production date range or delivery date range falls on one of these holidays: New Year's Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day.
The shipping price is calculated by the lab based on the weight of your order.
