Fine art prints for professional photographers

Fine Art Prints

Spectacular image quality. Our promise to you.

Word spread about the quality of the fine art printing in our books. As a result, we received many requests for a service allowing you to order professional prints to complement our albums. The idea made absolute sense to us. 

After spending so much time perfecting the quality of our books, it’s only right that we should share the love a little more by creating perfect printed gifts for family and friends. Discover the beauty of fine art printing, and become inspired to print more as your images are transformed into tactile masterpieces. Our dedication to using the latest printing technology ensures that each print captures the essence of the captured moment, providing a visual experience and physical connection that a digital screen cannot match.

Fine art prints for professional photographers

As experts in our field, you can rest assured that we’ve selected the best papers and calibrated and confirmed the accuracy of our printing to ensure the highest quality print. 

With a commitment to quality and sustainability, our fine art prints are not just the best choice; they’re a timeless treasure, preserving your special moments for future generations. What’s more, unlike traditional lustre and glossy photo paper, which contains gelatine, our papers are vegan-friendly. 

We offer a focused range of standard prints that we know sell well. We also offer custom sizes if needed. Prints are presented wrapped in tissue paper, and we also offer photographic matted prints and deckled edge prints.

Beautiful fine art prints for a lasting impression

We know our archival prints will wow because our books do, and without the constraints the book bind process imposes, we can take our ICC colour profiles to the top end of their capability.

We use inkjet printing (sometimes called giclée) to achieve the best quality printing, resulting in a stunning image finish. What’s more, as our fine art paper has a matt finish, your images spring to life without the distracting glare created by glossy prints. 

We trim, check, mount and deckle by hand and pride ourselves on the care and attention we give to every single print. Of course, images are only as good as papers and inks, and ours have the best print quality with archival benefits.

Our fine art prints are of outstanding quality and fit for the print-passionate photographer such as yourself.

Matted prints in frame friendly sizes

Our fine art printing service now offers a stunning range of matted prints, perfect for photographers looking to present their work with an added touch of sophistication. Alongside our standard loose fine art prints and deckle-edged fine art prints, our matted prints provide a beautifully framed presentation that enhances the visual appeal of your images.

Crafted with the same meticulous attention to detail as our Matted Print Box, our matted prints are available in the same high-quality specifications. Each print is mounted on a 1.4mm conservation-grade board, ensuring durability and a pristine presentation. The textured white mount finish adds a classic and timeless border, perfectly complementing the fine art prints.

Our matted prints come in two styles: frame-friendly mounting for easy framing and double-matted style for a more substantial, luxurious feel.

Mats in two styles

Frame-friendly mats or double-matted prints

Our matted prints come in two distinct mat styles to suit your presentation needs:

Frame-friendly mats

Designed for versatility and ease of display, our frame-friendly mats are perfect for clients who wish to frame their prints. Each mat is crafted from high-quality, 1.4mm conservation board, providing a sturdy yet elegant border that enhances the visual appeal of your prints. These mats ensure that your photos are protected and beautifully presented, making them ready for framing without any additional adjustments. The Matted Print Box can hold 25 frame-friendly mats.

Double-matted prints

For a truly luxurious presentation, our double-matted prints offer added thickness and durability. These mats feature an additional layer of conservation board on the back, doubling the thickness to around 3mm. This style not only provides extra protection for your prints but also creates a more substantial and tactile feel, ideal for showcasing on a coffee table or as a standout display piece. The double-matted option is perfect for clients who want a handling-friendly and impressive way to present their cherished images.

Both mat styles are designed to complement our fine art prints, ensuring your work is displayed with the highest quality and professionalism. Whether your clients prefer the frame-ready convenience of the frame-friendly mats or the luxurious feel of the double-matted prints, our options provide flexibility and elegance for every occasion. The Matted Print Box can hold 15 double-matted prints.

Why we don't offer traditional wet prints

Sustainability is at the core of our businesses, so we only use modern printing technologies.

Say no to gelatine and heavy metals

We do not offer silver halide or C-type photographic prints as the development process is chemically demanding, and the paper contains animal gelatine, heavy metals, and plastics—materials not aligned with vegan-friendly practices or our environmental sustainability values. 

No harsh chemicals

Our fine art printing, on the other hand, uses advanced inkjet technology to produce vibrant, lifelike colours and exquisite detail without the use of animal products, significantly reducing environmental impact. By choosing our fine art inkjet prints, you’re not just getting unmatched quality; you’re also making a choice that respects our planet and aligns with ethical values. Step into a greener, more compassionate world of photography with us.

Customer service is second to none. Absolutely fantastic. A handwritten note and perfectly packaged products delivered quickly. Also I was having issues resizing the logo to the specification needed and straight away a member of the team helped me and sent me the file altered to use in the future. Couldn’t be more pleased.

Thank you everyone at folio!

Why on earth would you use anybody else! Folio Albums make the very best quality albums that you will have ever seen, they are all beautifully handmade, ethically sourced and exquisitely presented! I have used a number of album suppliers over the ten years that I have been a professional photographer but none with the same level of attention to detail and customer focus as Folio Albums – their customer service is second to none! When you’re a busy photographer it’s nice to know that your album supplier has got your back. If you asked me to recommend an album supplier, I’d recommend Folio Albums in a heartbeat! Thank you for being amazing! 🙂

I’ve just received my first Fine Art album for my newborn photography business and it is just absolutely stunnng! I just love it. The help and support I had from the staff at Folio putting together the album was second to none and everybody I have spoken to has been just so lovely and helpful. I’m sure the quality of the album will sell itself and I will definitely be using Folio as my album supplier. Just brilliant!
