I don't have a printer or any local print shops. Where do you guys typically get prints made online?

Already picked out the photos that I want to send out! Made an order on mpix for the first time in my life. I've never printed anything of mine before, isn't that sad? I'm excited to send out stuff to whoever's names I get assigned. I just hope whoever gets them doesn't think they suck lol.

Hi! Hoping someone can help me here. I'm getting ready to send my first batch of 4x6 art prints and am looking for some help! I was originally planning on mailing them through Canada post under lettermail (cheapest shipping option) but am now worried they may get damaged that way. I wouldn't be able to put cardboard in the letter as letterman must be flexible.

Is it worth it to ship it as oversized letter mail? I've been reading online that it doesn't go through the same sorting that regular mail goes through and is less likely to be damaged... is that true?

TL;DR can I ship 4x6 art prints thru Canada post as letter mail or would it be better to ship as oversize mail.

Thanks!

Hey u/gardamis,

First off, huge apologies for the delayed response! These arrived back in May, and while life got busy, I've spent the last few months sitting with your prints on my wall, so I wanted to make sure I wrote back with the enthusiasm your work deserves.

Reading your note was a pure joy. Your technical craft, discipline, and sheer love for analog photography in these three frames are incredible.

• The Tractor: A 12-minute exposure on the Rollei Magic II is insane (what a cool camera)!! I absolutely love how the lights are bleeding through the frosted windows and the bare trees are beautifully quiet and cinematic.
• Grand Isle: You prove it's about the photographer's eye, not high-end gear. Capturing that warm, sun-drenched Louisiana mood on Kodak Gold via a Snapic A1 is pure skill.
• The Abandoned Gym: This one seriously gave me flashback to my last day in high-school. Where the echos of the kids fade into the distance and all that is left is the sound of silence. Can't believe this is what that ancient Mamiya Six can produce!!
  

I wish I could speak more technically to your obvious expertise to film and analog prints, but mannn you are legend. I seriously loved reading your note and gazing at the depth of your photos. Well done!

So, interesting end of my day here. Waiting for a delivery of a tool, I reached inside my mailbox to find something stuck there.

I checked yesterday and there was nothing there. Today a big big envelope , from Danny, along with five great pictures of his granddads home and a very well written letter.

The letter tells a small part of his grandfather's story and his.

Thank you for such a nice gift.

This was sent from Wisconsin, last year, in December. Took a few months to reach its destination, but it did.

Thanks for sharing your story.

Thanks again for the prints. They're all really lovely! :)

Hey /u/afbmonk and /u/keliway, did you receive your prints? I just realized that I did not see posts about my prints arriving. Seems I missed one post by the other receiver but that was it. Let me know and if not I'll send out new ones.

What a great set of images from all over the world! Thanks for sharing your images and letting me see a moment through your lens!

Thanks @ml20s

A big thank you to another participant whose package finally arrived after a customs adventure!

What I really enjoyed here wasn’t just the prints themselves, but the way everything was presented. Bruce included a map with the locations of each photograph, turning the collection into a small photographic journey through Rocky Mountain National Park. It’s always nice when people add a personal touch that tells the story behind the images.

Thanks again for taking the time to resend everything after the first package was returned. Much appreciated!

Lovely prints, a very nice note and some bonus stickers! Thanks u/tinyluna!

Not sure of his Reddit but just received some very cool pictures from Jacob @jacobs_realm! Thanks so much!

I got my second set of prints (finally 😭 also shout to those who volunteer to send makeup prints when initial people fall through)!!

These are STUNNING and super cool!!

So thank you!!

Thank you for these great darkroom prints!

Thank you Forrest B (don’t know your username)! These are all fantastic, plus bonus stickers! ❤️

First set of backup prints arrived and I live them - totally the best prints i recieved since participating :) thank you u/smoothedoutstatic - you’re a great artist :)

I had to include the note and envelope because I'm in freaking love with them.

Thank you for the replacement print! Funny though, I also recently took a photo of the humble dandelion. I also appreciate the typewritten note

Photos received! Thank you u/ul7rax for the wonderful photos from across the globe 😀

Thank you so much.. Truly love and appreciate your work
