What is the difference between the print finishes?

Glossy photos are printed on coated paper with a very smooth, shiny reflective surface. Glossy finishes have a high-contrast appearance and look slick to the touch when not under glass. This finish has an excellent dynamic range and color - slightly more "pop" than the matte paper, though less noticeable once framed.

• Photos will have a shiny finish
• Colors are vibrant
• Not suitable for framing as the print may stick to glass

Matte finishes have a very smooth, non-glare surface. Matte finishes have a lower-contrast when printed and are often used to enhance the texture of a print.

• Fingerprints and smudges are not as visible
• Glare is significantly reduced with matte-finish prints
• Works very well with black and white photographs

Lustre paper is the premier paper most preferred by portrait and wedding photographers and is considered more of a professional-grade paper. Lustre has a slight gloss with a subtle, often pearl-like texture. Lustre paper has a deeper color-saturisation than matte, has a higher contrast and is thicker than consumer paper.

• Fingerprints and smudges are not as visible
• Anti glare
• Pro quality paper
• Saturated inks can sometimes result in a darker image
