THIS SEASON’S MOST MEMORABLE GIFT MIGHT ALREADY BE IN YOUR POCKET
G
randfather used to say “The best kind of gifts are the ones we make ourselves specially for another.” He was a talented engraver and would make personalized prints for his family and friends at the holidays. Today’s smartphones have excellent cameras, and with the right knowledge and tools, these images can be turn into the best gifts of the season. By choosing a local printshop like Graphic Sky Printing,
you have the benefit of professional advice, samples that you can touch and feel, and the ability to see proofs during the process. A Santa Fe armature photographer wanted to surprise his wife with a special gift. He took his smartphone photographs from a memorable trip in Sedona, Arizona to Graphic Sky Printing and asked what they could do. He reviewed the various media available and decided on a stretched canvas
print. His images were resized and fine-tuned for brightness, contrast, and color balance, with attention to areas where the shadows and highlights were too intense. The photograph was printed on canvas and stretched to a wood frame. The photographer was delighted when he picked up his canvas—so much so that he order two smaller versions of the same image to be printed and stretched for gifts.
