The one-time setup fee is charged for each piece of art, film or digital file. This includes scanning (except for digital files), color correction, careful inspection, cleanup of the image, and archiving. It also covers whatever proofs are required to get the best image possible. As long as we are progressing, there is no limit on the number of proofs. The accepted proof is signed and left in our possession as a color reference.
Digital File
We can accept most file formats, however we prefer .tiff, .psd, or RAW files. If you have any questions about this, please give us a call. We'll be more than happy to help you out. The correct color will be achieved by working closely with the photographer or artist.

Print Media and Pricing:
We select, test, and profile all media used in our studio. This process allows us to have confidence in color accuracy as well as print life.
Prices for giclée prints are charged by the square inch – based on the size of the image and the border required. For example: a 12 x 16 inch image with one inch borders, produces a 14 x 18 inch print.
Paper
Prices for fine art and premium papers vary in cost from $0.08 to $0.12 per square inch depending on quantity and media choice. Additional prints of the same image have quantity discounts started at 2 prints.
Significantly larger orders will be done on a case by case basis.
We now offer custom "sheet pricing" for a lower overall price. for $120 to $130, depending on media, we will fill a large sheet (approx. 3ft x 4ft) with whatever images you want, at any size you want as long as it is no smaller than 8.5 x 11 inches.
All our papers are internally buffered, acid free with no OBA's (optical brighteners) and a heavy weight that averages 300 grams per square meter. Premium papers are 100% cotton rag. Surfaces range from very smooth – ideal for photographic images, or slight to moderately textured which are more appropriate for oils, pastels, watercolors and mixed media. We also carry a popular photographic paper which is a baryta coated fibre based satin paper with excellent archival properties, enhanced definition and extended tonal range.
Posters
There may be times when you don't need a high-quality fine art print. In this case we offer a medium quality poster type paper with a smooth matte surface for $0.05 per square inch.
Canvas and Stretching
We use a 19 mil cotton-poly canvas that is OBA free (no optical brightners) and hand apply two coats of varnish for enhanced color depth and UV protection. Canvas pricing varies in cost from $0.15 to $0.12 per square inch and quantity pricing starts at two prints of the same image. We recommend adding 2 inches all the way around for stretching on light duty bars and 3 inches around for "Gallery Wrap" to heavy duty bars. Our stretching prices include the bars, labor and the finished canvases are ready to frame or hang on a wall. Please call or email me for quotes on stretching. (barbcarr@carrimage.net)
