In today’s post, the demonstrated matting technique provides a means of accentuation which uses photo aspects to create a complimentary matte which would be difficult to achieve with conventional matting techniques.  This method is especially useful in providing a foundation for other applications of utilizing photos to create other digital photo frame content such as greetings, calendar art, and others.  This kind of matte approaches a composition which becomes a part of the artistic process itself.

28 Mar 2011 Why Buy Matte Watch Photo Matting?

If you have not yet fallen in love with my photo treatments, you might not appreciate what goes into the process of creating them for you.  Here are some things that set these treatments apart:

1. When you buy traditional matting, your picture is fitted to the available mattes.  With our treatments, the matting is matched to your photo, and is often created from aspects of your photos.

2. Once your digital photo has been matted, there is no slippage, no need for subsequent adjustments, and the matte will remain as fresh as the photo.  If you choose to print your matted photos and hang them in conventional frames, you can print a fresh copy as often as needed, at a minimal expense.  This is not true for traditional mattes bought in stores.

3. Custom matting can be created for your pictures that does not force you to choose from a bunch of inappropriate templates, or limited supplies.

4. Your matting costs are minimal when compared with having a picture matted for framing using traditional methods.

5. You can have your photos reproduced with a variety of matting choices that can be easily interchanged according to your tastes.

6. Turn around time for photo matting is quicker and much less expensive than taking pictures to a frame shop for mounting.

These are just a few of the reasons why you should consider this fun way to enrich your photographic efforts.  If you are new to the idea, grab a couple of your photos and upload them to the site.  Matting a photo costs about the same as printing a digital picture in a discount photo print shop.  Since you pay nothing until you approve your photos, there is nothing to lose in giving us a try.  Let me know how I can serve you today.

17 Apr 2010 April 2010 – Tree Show

In my first installment for this week, I put together a composite photo of one on my favorite spring tree types.  These trees are all around, and represent color that is popular with lots of local residents. The matting for the photos is a reflective metallic background of the main shot, which makes the colors pop and looks great in a digital picture frame.  For a full resolution look, click on the picture.

Starting this month, I have decided to change the way I am displaying my available works by giving each treatment its own focus, and posting the different perspectives on their own.  Below is a matted photo that displays a nice picture taken on the Country Club Plaza in May of 2009.  Some of the distinct advantages of digital matting techniques are the tremendous variety of styles, textures, colors, and variations available, without the minor flaws seen with some physical matting techniques.   If you select to print and frame your photos in conventional frames, using various size prints, the digital matting is automatically sized to the picture without the need to measure and cut new mattes.  These mattes will stay fresh and new looking, because if your photo ever deteriorates, you just print and frame a fresh copy.  Lots of money saved there.

This week I hope you will be tickled by the offerings posted on the site.  I am working hard to provide enough ideas to inspire you to go out and get the pictures that mean something to you, and bring them here to treat them right.  I put together some creations that made me feel better about taking a picture of a feather on the ground.  I knew it would come in handy sometime.  Though I can work with most digital picture frame resolutions, I recommend using matted picture creations in a frame that is at least 10 inches.  Anything smaller than that just seems to lose impact.   Not that you cannot try it, but the smaller frames make your pictures look so small, they are not much good for regular photos either.  As the technology continues growing in popularity, you can get some of the larger frames for much better prices if you take the time to look around and compare.  On with the show.
