Question we hear a lot at the lab: "What size should I print this?" 🛋️

Here's the easy version. Over a sofa, go about 2/3 the sofa's width. Over a bed, about 2/3 the headboard. For an entryway console, keep it a little narrower than the table. Planning a gallery wall? Tape the whole layout on the wall with painter's tape first and live with it for a day.

Printing something as a holiday gift? Sneak a measurement of their wall first. It makes all the difference.

Tell us your wall width (or what's under it) in the comments and we'll suggest a size. Plan your print at phoenixphotolab.com or swing by 2212 E McDowell Rd.

Quick holiday gift question: what's something you gave last year that's still out and loved? 🤔 Most gifts get used up or tucked in a drawer, but a framed print of a favorite photo (or a painting someone in the family made) ends up on the wall for years. Bring us the photo, phone pics totally welcome, or the original artwork, and we'll help you pick the size, the look and the frame. Just give yourself a little time before the holidays get busy. Stop by 2212 E McDowell Rd or send us a message with any questions.

Ever wondered what actually happens to your painting once it's at the lab? Here's the giclée process, step by step. First we digitallycapture the original. Then we print a proof, hold it right next to your painting and adjust the color until it matches. Once it's right, we print large-format with archival pigment inks on fine art paper, and every print gets inspected and trimmed clean before it's ready. Your original goes home with you, and you've got prints ready for First Friday on Nov 6 or the holiday markets. Have a piece you're thinking about? Stop by 2212 E McDowell Rd or visit phoenixphotolab.com.

Painters and artists, getting work ready for First Friday (Nov 6) or a holiday market? If you're planning to sell prints, a little prep on the original goes a long way.

Our quick checklist before you bring a piece in for giclée reproduction:
• Make sure it's completely dry
• Take it out of the frame (glass causes glare)
• Clean up any smudges or edges
• Add your signature the way you want it on every print
• Digital artists: bring the full-size original file

Not sure what sizes make sense for your piece? Stop by the lab on McDowell and we'll help you figure it out. 🎨

Phoenix photographers: when's the last time you saw your best shot printed big? 📸

Screens shrink everything. A large-format archival print shows all the detail you worked for: the texture in the desert brush, the color in that sunset, the quiet in the shadows.

We print for photographers at every level, from the first frame you're truly proud of to a full gallery wall. Bring your file to 2212 E McDowell Rd and we'll help you pick the right paper and size.

Which shot would you print big? Drop it in the comments 👇

Quick question we get all the time: “How big can I print this?” 📸

If it’s straight off your phone (a typical 12MP shot), you can print around 13×10" razor-sharp, and 20×15" or larger still looks great on a wall. People view big prints from a few feet back, not nose-to-glass.

The one thing that makes the biggest difference: use the original photo, not a screenshot or a copy saved from Facebook or Instagram. Those get compressed and lose detail.

Got a favorite from a trip, a sunset, or the kids? Pick one this weekend, bring it by 2212 E McDowell Rd, and we’ll take a look and tell you how big it can go. 🌵

Phoenix artists, here's a question we hear a lot: "If I make prints, do I have to give up my original?" Nope, and that's the whole point. 🎨

A giclée is a fine art print of your painting or drawing, made with pigment inks on archival paper. You keep the original (or sell it to the one collector who fell in love with it), and you can still offer your work to everyone else in sizes that fit more walls and more budgets.

With First Friday on Nov 6 and holiday markets coming up, now's a great time to get a few pieces ready. Bring your original by 2212 E McDowell Rd and we'll talk through paper, size, and what will look best.

Which piece would you never sell, but would love to share? 👇
