Benefits of Choosing Your Own Frame.

By purchasing our photographs as loose photographs, you can get frames locally for many more options and less money. Mr. McNulty includes with each purchase an article he wrote describing in easy steps "How You Can Frame Like a Pro" and save even more money.

1. Framing materials are very expensive. This is true even for us. It is even more true when you do framing right, with the best and the most archival, acid free materials, which we do. So, when we frame pictures, they are done right and they are expensive. Professional framers can buy materials in huge quantities and can thus afford to frame pictures for less than we can. Our new loose print prices, especially compared to our competitors, are a fantastic deal. Our photographs are priced so that you can buy them unframed and still afford to have a professional frame them.
   
2. Framing is very time consuming. In the past we had gotten to the point where we were spending all of our time matting and framing. This had gotten so bad that we no longer had any time to spend photographing. Finally I made a discovery - I am really not a framer, I am a photographer. My talent is in taking pictures. There are people who are better at framing than I am, i.e. professional framers. Therefore, I finally realized, I should spend my time taking pictures and let the people who can frame better and more economically than we can do the framing. I now have the time to take many more photographs, and our customers get more framing options at better prices. All this works out much better for both us and for our customers.
   
3. When you buy a loose photograph and have it framed at your local framers you get it framed exactly the way you want it. We simply don't have the resources of a large frame shop; we can't afford to have every frame and mat on hand to match every picture and every decor. When you have your photograph framed by a professional, you have the choice of every frame and mat ever made. The frame and mat can be matched exactly to the picture and to your home decor. This is a huge advantage over the framing I can do. I can offer only one or two different framing styles. So, our pictures are priced low enough that you can frame the picture yourself, or hire a professional framer to turn our photographs into exactly the framed art piece that works best for you and save money in the process.
   
4. Shipping framed pictures is very expensive. Our shipping and handling charges are very low since we are only shipping photographs. Our offer is to buy as many pictures as you want and only pay one low shipping & handling charge of $3.95. You save more money by avoiding paying the cost of shipping a heavy frame through snail mail, not to mention the headaches you save by not having to worry about glass breaking, chipping, etc. during shipping. We ship all loose unframed photographs, or multiple loose unframed photographs, for only one low shipping & handling charge of $3.95 within the continental US. When you figure the shipping savings, it is hands down more economical to have your picture framed locally than to have us frame it for you.
   
5. So, I think you will agree, that your best deal is to buy a loose, unframed photograph from us and have it framed locally or frame it yourself with Mr. McNulty's tips on How to Frame Like a Pro. You will get the finished image you really want, a mat and frame that match the picture and your decor much better at a more economical price. And we will have time to do what we do best, which is get out and capture breathtaking pictures that will refresh and uplift your soul.
   
6. You have nothing to lose. 100% Money Back Guaranteed anytime within 60 days of purchase. I will gladly give you a complete and prompt refund of your full purchase price. No questions asked, making it Risk Free.
