Morning all,

Any recommendation for printing and framing (canvas and normal) for baby photographs.

Needs to be quality (baby photos) - cost not an issue.

If cost isn't an issue Loxley are very well regarded, however I use One Visison Imaging as they are local.

PH Tim does great canvases http://fluid-images.co.uk - Avoid Photobox, as their canvases are crap.

Steve,
I know Tim's are good and have recommended them previously to several people who have been very happy. However, I've also used Photobox and for 60x40 for £20 (with discounts) I have absolutely now issues with the quality (see below). What don't you like (is crap a bit strong?)



ps. the only quality issue here is the iPhone image of the canvasses!

It's just the texture of the canvas... it's not at all 'canvas'... too smooth. (Unless they have changed it)

Good point - no they haven't changed it! Printing quality good enough (for me) but I see what you mean about the canvas texture

I recently had some large framed prints made, I needed them in a hurry for an exhibition and found that I was lucky enough to work about 3 miles from these people, http://www.fruitphotoart.co.uk/

They knocked up 6 large (24x16") prints, mounted them and framed them, in a hurry, the quality was superb and they were nice people to deal with.
