Lab Printing - Boutique Photographic and Fine Art Images
If you love our albums, why not trust your most important images to our master printer and experienced lab artisans? Finao's world-class lab services are our best-kept secret. We don't mass produce, allowing our expert printers to take extra care with your images, including color correction, if preferred. Experience our amazing portraits and fine art work or offer your clients the best tiny prints available to include with thank you notes and announcements.
We offer premium photographic and fine art printing on papers from the world's leading producers including Fuji, Kodak, Hahnemühle and MOAB. Our skill combines with premium archival inks and state of the art equipment from Noritsu, Polielettronica, Kodak, Canon, and Epson.
We value consistency in our printing. Generally speaking, all you will need for good results across orders are a quality monitor and a good calibration device (e.g., Spyder, X-Rite, or similar brand). We recommend requesting test prints prior to your first album order so that you have a baseline for our product.

Print-only orders are restricted to USA SHIPMENTS ONLY unless combined with other products, and will ship via 1-2 day service with a $10 flat rate.
-
If your order contains other products we base the shipping rate on the non-lab items in the order.

International print orders are available only when combined with other products and do not qualify for expedited flat-rate shipping.

Orders containing both prints and other products will be delivered in a single shipment once all items are finished. Rates offered in this case are based on the non-lab items in the order.
NOTE: If photographic prints of any type must be absolutely identical, please purchase in the same order. C-process printing is chemical based, so although we calibrate our printers carefully results may vary slightly depending on time of day or week in which the prints are made. Differences are typically not noticable except if prints will be displayed side by side
