266: Andrew Darlow: From Digital to Decor! Printing Options for Your Photographs

The Profitable Photographer

My friend, Andrew Darlow, is a New Jersey-based photographer, author, and workflow coach. He is very skilled at “tech stuff” and is my go-to guy when I get in the weeds about software, digital issues, and such.

For over 25 years, he has helped people capture, edit, print and backup their photographs, videos, and other media. His work has appeared in many publications and other media, including: People Magazine, Animal Planet, Rangefinder and Professional Photographer Magazine. Andrew's photographic prints have been widely exhibited and are held in numerous private collections.

He invented the GalleryPouch Art Bubble bag after some of his framed prints were damaged during an exhibition. He is also the author of four award-winning books, including: “Focus and Filter,” “Biscuit for Your Thoughts,”

Andrew has been on the show two other times and in this episode he highlights some of his favorite ways to print images from matted C-prints, to metals and canvas wraps.

He explains the options and value of 6 different options

1. Matted C-prints (darkroom, digital c-prints or inkjet prints)
2. Canvas wraps using inkjet printing or "hand-stripped" prints made from C-Prints from companies like Mid-South Color Labs in Jackson, TN.
3. Face mounted acrylic prints (
4. Metal prints (dye-sublimation):
5. Metal Prints (direct print).
6. Press-printed cards and promotional items, including large prints.
