Descriptions and prices

From the results of a sitting we can produce a vast range of different and interesting products. On this page we describe and price them all in detail. All our photographs are printed in such a way that if looked after they should see the next century.

Our Photographs

The vast majority of the photographs we produce are printed by us, by hand, in our own laboratory. Like most well made products this process takes time, so please be patient. You are buying a quality product which will stand the test of time and give you pleasure for many years. All our photographs will be presented in a 1 1/8 inch ivory mount, bearing the photographers signature; unless otherwise requested.

We recommend mounts as they protect the photograph from bending, stop the print from sticking to the glass when framed and in general present the photo well.

Photographs – Sizes and prices

We are happy to make prints of any size. The most popular sizes are listed below, variations will be quoted for. With so many different camera formats in use, some of the photograph sizes quoted below can crop a small part of the photograph.

Vignettes

This is a process where the extremities of a photograph fade into white. It is ideal for bringing a little old fashioned formality to a portrait taken in the studio and also for isolating a figure from the back ground in outside photography.

Sepia Tinting

Sepia photographs are black and white photographs that have been given an extra archival process. During the process they turn an old fashioned brown colour. The colour can be altered to a certain extent. Apart from looking good this extra process gives the resulting photograph a life of at least 100 years. This process adds 50% to the cost of the photograph.

Silhouettes

A very popular product and can be of any size and framed in either a contemporary or traditional frame. They can be taken during either a Contemporary or Standard sitting. Let us know you want silhouettes before the sitting takes place. Cost of taking up to 4 individual silhouettes is:-

During indoor sitting - £40.00
Outdoor sitting - £75.00

Large Laminates on board

Large Laminates on board Choose any of the photographs from your sitting and we can enlarge them up to 40 x 30 inches. We then bond the photograph onto ½ inch board and laminate the whole thing with a translucent laminate covering and it is now ready to hang. Ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, playrooms, pool houses, passages and conservatories. If they get dirty just take them down and wipe them.

40x30”

Canvas wrap round – "Chunkie"

A new idea which is proving incredibly popular in contemporary as well as traditional locations. The "Chunkie" is 2 inches thick and the canvas wraps right around the edge of the frame.

A black and white, colour or sepia photograph is mounted onto the canvas and then stretched over and round the frame.

It is available from a minimum size of 20 x16" to a maximum of 60 x 40".

24x20”

Canvas mounted prints

Here there are two choices. You can either opt for the true canvas print which is very obviously canvas or go for the canvas effect which I have to say is a very good imitation and in my opinion gives a more pleasing result.

Both are available in black and white, colour or sepia. The true canvas is mounted on a stretcher and the canvas effect is mounted on board. Both are designed to be framed without glass.

20x24”

Montage Prints

A MONTAGE is a selection of black and white or colour photos arranged and printed as one photograph on one sheet of photographic paper. Designed to hang rather than stand. Any size is possible 16x20" and 24x20" being the most popular. Studio shots with a plain background produce the best results and you can choose as many photos as you wish. Odd numbers works best and the Montage is priced on the number of photos it contains and not the size. With montages, big is beautiful. The frame and display choice is enormous.

See our framing website and choose any of the wood frames and we will make one to fit.

Cutouts

Cut Outs can be made from colour, black and white and sepia photographs to almost any size to suit you. We can work from a print, digital file or negative supplied by you or from one of our own professionally taken photographs.

A standard single Cut Out normally measures approximately 7 inches tall and stands on a black, oak base with a green baize bottom. Almost any subject will work, some examples are shown in the photograph below. Eton and Harrow boys in tails, children, horses, team photographs and houses are all very popular.

If in any doubt as to the cost when ordering, please ask for a quote. Prices do not include the cost of printing or taking the photograph.

Contact Sheets

Your proofs are produced in the form of contact sheets. Once you have done your ordering why not cut them out and use them in our mini multiple frames. See Locketts catalogue page 26 or visit our framing website. Clean contact sheets i.e. sheets without numbers or the photographer's markings on, are available at the discounted price of £11.75 per sheet.

Mug Shots

Mug Shots There is often a requirement these days for passport sized photographs for the myriad of forms we are required to complete. UCAS forms and driving licenses are a good example. We can make passport sized photos out of many of the photos we take during a normal sitting. It saves you being photographed yet again, we have your negatives on file and we are only a telephone call away. These are not necessarily suitable for use in passports.

Christmas Cards

This service is for those who want high quality bespoke Christmas cards without the hassle of making them.

Choose any photograph, black and white or colour from a sitting this year or provide your own photo and we will reproduce it for you as a Christmas card. Remember the photograph does not have to be of children. Horses, dogs, family groups and houses are all very popular ideas.

The cards and envelopes are of the highest quality as is the reproduction of the photograph.

If you would rather make your own card we are more than happy to produce quantities of photographs at discounted prices and we can also provide the blank card.

Miniature Photographs

Big is not always beautiful. In many cases our colour and black and white portraits work beautifully as miniatures. The great joy is they take up much less space and if properly framed quite often have a greater impact.

Frames for miniatures start from £18.50 and will last a lifetime. Miniatures have always been a precious gift. See our miniature frames on pages 34 and 35 in our Locketts catalogue or visit www.locketts.co.uk. Miniature photographs, any size up to up to 4x3 inches (unframed are £15.75)

Collage Presentations

The kitchen collage is now an institution but they are time consuming and fiddly to make. Why not bring/send us your photos and we will scan, manipulate and produce the end product as one photo which can then be reproduced as often as required, in any size you wish.

Now add print price from the 2-5 range below.

Copying your Collage

Alternatively make up your own collage and bring/send in the result for us to copy thereby allowing you to have further prints made at a fraction of the price of the original in any size you want. They can be framed, made as large laminates, canvas mounted prints or Chunkies.

Prices to copy your collage and print it in any of the following sizes.
