Exhibition reprints are prints made from
by our Custom Printmakers using our Custom
Exhibition Printmaking service.
You can order reprints at any time with our secure
online order form.
Each print is carefully made to our exacting
standards, using ICC color management. After we’re
sure your prints are perfect, we put them in a sturdy package
so they arrive at your door in beautiful condition.
Reprint pricing is determined by the paper
surface and ink you choose to print with, the size of your
print, and how many prints you order. If you order multiple
prints of the same image, in the same size, at the same time--you'll
qualify for lower pricing.
Let's say you order four 16x20 prints of
the SAME image. The first print would be billed at the 1st
print price and the additional three would be billed at the
2-9 price.
Now, let's say you order four 16x20 prints
of four DIFFERENT images. In this case, each print would
be billed at the first print price. This is because it take
us more time to print four different photographs than it
does to print the same photograph four times.
Turnaround:
We work on a first-come, first-served basis
with all orders at West Coast Imaging. Custom Exhibition
Prints and Print Lab prints are given first priority by our
imaging staff, and we work to complete each order as quickly
as possible, without sacrificing quality. When we have prints
with surface damage and other defects, we reprint them until
we have a perfect print to send you. This adds time to each
order. If you need it yesterday, we have RUSH services that
come along with RUSH charges. Most Custom Exhibition Print
and Print Lab orders generally take 5 to 7 business days
in-house to complete. Prints on any of our Epson printers
will take ten business days in-house , prints on Supergloss
or Fuji Pearl will take 10-14 business days in-house. All
estimated turnaround times can be longer or shorter depending
on our current workload. If you are working on a deadline,
even if it’s far
in the future, please be sure to let us know so we can work
with you to meet your objectives.

Making a beautiful color print
is about paying attention to the subtle nuances of each
photograph, and making sure those qualities are evoked
in the final print. The first step is to make global adjustments
to density, contrast, color balance and saturation. Once
the global changes are made, the print can be fine tuned
by applying the same tools to local areas. By working with
our expert printmakers and communicating your desires,
we can explore the possibilities inherent within each photograph,
and make a stunning final print.
In addition to the traditional
printing decisions made in Photoshop, digital printing
allows us to print on a wide variety of papers. This can
significantly change what your photograph communicates,
giving you new options and possibilities to explore.
Light-Sensitive
Photo Papers
Most of our clients
choose to use traditional light-sensitive photo papers, which
we expose in our Chromira using an LED light source, and
then process in RA-4 chemistry. Because it is real photo
paper, prints have the tactile look and feel of a traditional
photograph--but with all the benefits of digital control.
We
offer standard Matte and Gloss surfaces using Fuji Crystal
Archive Paper. Another option is Fuji SuperGloss, which
has incredibly deep and rich colors thanks to its SuperGloss
surface. If you like the look of Ilfochrome/Cibachrome,
you’ll love SuperGloss.
We also offer Fuji Pearl paper, which gives prints a unique,
metallic look.
Inkjet
Photo Papers
Another option is
to use our inkjet printers to print on papers that have surfaces
similar to light-sensitive photo papers. When viewed up-close,
inkjet prints will look sharper than light sensitive papers,
and many papers have extremely long life spans. Epson Premium
Luster Photo Paper is the most popular choice, and it looks
and feels very similar to Fuji Crystal Archive Matte.
Inkjet
Fine-Art Papers
Fine-art papers give color photographers exciting new
options. Fine-art papers offer the same look and feel as
the paper used for watercolor paintings. You can choose from
papers ranging from a light texture, to a heavy texture.
Prints on fine-art papers typically have a softer and quieter
feel that works well for many photographs. Blacks are generally
muted slightly, but rich, saturated colors are still possible.
Much of the muted effect comes from the non-reflective qualities
of the paper itself. Fine-art papers look wonderful when
displayed in homes with no direct lighting on the artwork.
Our most popular fine-art paper combination is Watercolor
Smooth.
Inkjet
Canvas
With inkjet printing,
we can also print on specially coated canvases. Since the
texture of the canvas shows through, it gives the viewer
a sense of a painting, and opens up new avenues of expression
for photographers.
A
complete list of the papers we offer can be found in the
paper choices tab.
It’s
hard to deny the beauty of a well made B&W print. By
removing color, and instead using only black, white, and
shades of grey, B&W allows ordinary subjects to be
transformed into a print that reveals more than the thing
itself. A pepper becomes more than a pepper--a nautilus
shell more than an empty shell.
Making
a beautiful B&W print is about choosing a proper overall
density (exposure) and contrast for a particular photograph,
then combining that with local changes (dodging and burning)
to both density and contrast, bringing out the purest essence
of the subject.
The
tools of digital imaging are capable of immense control
into the process. When working with a custom printmaker,
digital imaging allows great repeatability and ease of
proofing. Most adjustments can be made more quickly than
in the darkroom, which helps control costs and provides
more opportunities to explore the potential of each photograph.
A
digital B&W print can have many starting points: Color
digital camera files, color slide films, color negative
film, B&W negative films, and more. Color photographs
are converted to greyscale in the computer with very precise
control.
The
look and feel of a B&W print has always come from the
process that makes the prints. In the analog darkroom,
these processes are based on light-sensitive papers that
use different metals to achieve their particular look.
Most darkroom B&W prints are made with paper that uses
silver, but platinum and palladium are also very popular
alternative processes.
We
have several options for black and white printing:
Light-Sensitive
Photo Papers
It
is possible to use our Chromira to print onto light-sensitive
photo papers and make B&W prints, but we prefer the results
of inkjet printing for B&W over light-sensitive papers.
However, unique results can be obtained with Fuji SuperGloss
and Kodak Metallic paper.
Inkjet
Photo Papers
Inkjet
photo papers are the best choice when you want to replicate
the surface of silver based darkroom papers. Silver
Rag is a very popular choice for clients who like the look
of gloss-surface fiber based papers used in the darkroom.
Inkjet
Fine-Art Papers
A
fine-art paper is generally one that looks and feels like
the paper used for watercolor paintings, and for many alternative
darkroom processes like platinum and palladium printing.
You can choose from papers ranging from a light texture,
to a heavy texture. Prints on fine-art papers typically have
a softer and quieter feel that works well for many photographs
and allows a feel similar to platinum and palladium. Blacks
are generally muted slightly, but mid and high values are
very crisp and defined. Much of the muted effect comes from
the non-reflective qualities of the paper itself. Fine-art
papers look wonderful when displayed in homes with no direct
lighting on the artwork. Our most popular fine art paper
combination is Watercolor Smooth.
Inkjet
Canvas
With
inkjet printing, we can also print on specially coated canvases.
Since the texture of the canvas shows through, it gives the
viewer a sense of a painting, and opens up new avenues of
expression for photographers.
A
complete list of the papers we offer can be found in the
paper choices tab.
Nothing
changes a photo more than the paper it's printed on. From
traditional photo papers to watercolor papers and canvases--we
have a choice to meet your needs and make your print unique!
Favorite

These
