The Print. When a Picture Becomes a Photograph

Printing at home may seem like a big project, but it’s actually quite easy. All you need is a printer plugged into a computer, some paper, and the excitement to print! The Camera Store’s, Julian Ferreira, has printed thousands of photos at home, and he has some inspirational tips to get you excited to print, plus we have a 1-Week Canon Printer Sale from June 19-26! Learn how Julian takes a picture and turns it into a photograph!

With hundreds of thousands of prints under his belt, Julian’s tips are simple and motivational.

  • Just go for it, and don’t be afraid to redo a print. If you don’t like the way it looks, go back, edit, and print again. Print as many times as you need until you get it the way you want.
  • Try different types of papers. There are so many different types of paper, from matte, glossy, to canvas, metallic, and even velvet. Let yourself be inspired by the different mediums.
  • Your prints should be about emotion. Don’t worry so much about the technical aspects, if it portrays the emotion you want it to, it’s perfect.
  • At the end of the day, these prints are for you. Take the time to edit, print, reprint, to get your final product. Most of all, enjoy the process!
