Get Your Photos On Canvas!

For anyone that loves their photos, no matter what form they are in, it’s only a matter of time before they start to have their favorites transferred over onto canvas. Canvas prints are a beautiful, unique, long lasting way to enjoy portraits, art photos, and much more. And, with canvas prints gaining popularity rapidly, there are so many people all over the world that are getting their favorite photos and art work turned into a beautiful canvas print. Yet many people have no idea just how their photos and art pieces suddenly become a wonderful canvas print.

Believe it or not, most canvas prints in today’s world begin as simple digital photos. These digital photos are normally even taken with just a regular digital camera, not always one of the very expensive professional cameras that are out on the market.

Don’t worry if your favorite photo isn’t a digital one, you can easily scan it into a high resolution photo, so that you can take one of your old favorites and turn it into a beautiful work of art on canvas. For anyone considering using a scanned photo to create a canvas print from, you want to make sure that you follow a few steps first. Of course, you want to make sure that the photo as well as the scanner glass is dirt and dust free, and that there is nothing else that might show up in the scan. Worry about getting everything off the glass and the photo, you can edit the digital image once it’s on the screen. Scan your image at a high PPI (or Pixels Per Inch), since the higher the resolution is, the better the results will be. Many canvas printers prefer that you have a 300 PPI for your photo, but check their requirements to see what they can accept just in case you cannot get it that high. With a 300 PPI, ZaZa Gallery can easily make any 4”X6” image appear crystal clear – even if you order a canvas print that is 24”X36”.

If you are using an image that is taken by a digital camera, you should try to make sure that your camera has at least 5 megapixels to ensure that you have a good clean image to use for your canvas print. This also follows the rule that scans do as well – the higher the megapixels on your camera, the better the image quality will be, and the better your canvas print will be. To ensure that your camera is shooting pictures at the highest resolution and you want to save them as a high quality JPEG or RAW file.

When you get your photo scanned in or uploaded to your computer, you can easily edit the photo to take out red eye, crop the image, and make any other edits that need to be made before the image is printed onto canvas. But making the changes that you want before you send it will help to ensure that you get the best canvas print.

Of course, ZaZa Gallery can do basic retouching on any photo that you would like turned into a canvas print to ensure that the color and sharpness of the photo is perfect for your print. There are also plenty of changes that can be made to any photo to ensure that you get a truly unique canvas print – from black and white to sepia tones to enhanced colors, ZaZa Gallery can help create the perfect canvas print that you will love for generations.
