Why prints matter
A photograph on your phone is easy to forget. A print on your wall is something your children will grow up looking at.
We produce our prints ourselves at home, on professional lustre paper. Every print is made to order — checked and packed by hand before it leaves us. We also offer premium framing, so your images arrive ready to hang.
Prints are available to all Something Blue clients after their session — studio, wedding, family, newborn and maternity.
The paper
We print exclusively on professional lustre paper — a semi-gloss surface that brings out rich colour, deep contrast, and fine detail without the glare of a fully glossy finish. It handles beautifully, resists fingerprints, and looks exceptional behind glass or unframed.
Lustre is the industry standard for professional photographic printing. It works across all subject types — portraits, weddings, newborn — and holds up over decades.

All packages are priced on enquiry — final cost depends on sizes and framing choices. Happy to put together a bespoke package if none of the above quite fits.
