Don't Be Discouraged Or Intimidated

A secret weapon for photographers on a tight budget, have limited space, or time.

A quick to-scale mockup of a framed 11 x 14in print with border sizes I discussed in my “perfect print size” newsletter earlier in the week.

For many of you that desire to present your images and have followed many of our DIY series on framing, matting, and mounting you might be intimidated at how much work it is to start from scratch in building frames and all that goes along with it. Or you may not have the space to start mount that kind of effort. Last but certainly not least the thought of framing, matting, mounting even a small exhibition of ten prints is just not within a reasonable cost.

While, doing the work yourself costs a tenth of what it would cost a professional to do a high quality job, it’s still expensive for 10 prints and twice as expensive for 20. In today’s DIY newsletter I am going to share a secret for those that want to share your work on your walls or the walls of an exhibition space that will fit almost any budget and you can accomplish with any level of skill in any space.
