I’m finally getting around to processing the most recent pictures of the girls. I did all their pictures from their first month but since then I have been too busy to get to the rest. I take way too many photos so now they are stacked up and it’s taking me forever. I need to pick out some good ones to print also… anyone know a good place to order prints online? I want to be able to have the option to choose if they are matte or glossy and I can’t find anywhere that lets you choose. Maybe I’m not looking right lol! :left:

I don’t know about online, but CVS (a drug store we have here in L.A., at least) lets you choose matte or glossy, and they’re done in less than five minutes. I’m a photographer, too, and I’m a matte fan
(For most things.)

CVS and possibly Wal-mart. I can’t remember though.

Oh we have CVS here too, I didn’t think about that or walmart because I wanted to do wallet sizes and 8×10’s I didn’t know if they did those… I’ve only ever gotten standard 4×6 or 5×7 at both places but I’m sure they probably do them, I’m just an airhead!
I’m going to try out Picasa…
p.s. Amy, we shoot with the same camera & use the same software!

I was going to recommend CVS as well. Or Walgreens. I’m dying to see pictures of the nursery!
Your girls are beautiful.

I think they do have wallets! Sarah - You might be disappointed with Picasa, you have sooo much more freedom in Photoshop, but it does make some things quick
I noticed you had a DRXT from your Flickr info, too!

you can order prints through flickr as well, if you have digital pictures
i’m not sure what options they have tho since it’s not available in australia *boo*

Yeah- I would say CVS too. It’s so weird you posted this because I was just in CVS like two days ago picking up some stuff and I was standing online & right by the register they had a big poster saying they do photos & you could choose matte or glossy.

I highly recommend Walmart. I’ve gotten lots of photos printed my them (digital photos) and they have turned out great.

Walmart does wallets. They do every size.

Costco is a really good place to get pictures printed because they’re really cheap.

have you tried Wolf Photo? my mom swears by them. i usually just go to cvs & print off the cd for like 19cents a picture, or whatever it is.
but now that i think about it. i should start doing my prints in matte.
or maybe even kinkos? i have sent work projects there directly from my Word program. & just went to pick it up. i’m not sure if they do pictures though.

i definitely suggest walgreens. ive been ordering prints from them for years (both matte AND glossy) and i’ve always been pleased with the results.. they’re cheap too!
