Cropping Guide We want to explain a little about how a lab crops photos to create different sizes. This will affect your choice in some cases. You will notice that we shot lots of the photos with “dead space” on each end. Others we took up very close. This is because when creating an 8x10, 11x14, 16X20 or 20X24 the lab crops (chops) a bunch off each end. A negative is not the same proportion as an 8x10, so some must be cropped. So if you want an 8x10 or 11x14 of a photo, choose a proof with extra space to be cropped off the long ends. We offer an 8x12 on our price list for the same price as an 8x10. This is the same proportion as the negative and requires no cropping. I know some of you hate math! But for those that don’t, just take a 4x6 and double it and you have an 8x12. If you want nothing cropped off, if you like every inch of your photograph, then order an 8x12, a 12x18, a 14 x 20, or a 20 x 30. Frames now come in these sizes and most are easily available at camera stores, department stores, frames shops, etc. The photos that are taken up close make perfect wallets, 4x6s or 5x7 prints. If you wanted to order a stack of 4x6s to stuff in your Christmas cards, order a photograph taken up close with little room to spare. We hope this helps you make your choices. Please call if you have questions. Thanks for letting us be part of your time together in Jackson Hole. We enjoyed working with you on your portrait or wedding! |
