Many photo labs push customers to print on their priciest or most readily available paper options. However, this is far from the best way to choose the right material for your photos. In this video, I break down the different types of paper—matte, metallic, luster, and even canvas—and guide you on what to consider when selecting the perfect medium to showcase your images.

I started my photography journey in 1985. For over 39 years, I've been working as a professional photographer. I've run a photo studio in Southern Alberta, Canada, for most of that time, offering a variety of services. Alongside the studio, I also own and manage a full-service photo lab that caters to my printing needs and those of other photographers.
In the past two decades, I've had the privilege of teaching and mentoring thousands of aspiring photographers worldwide. My aim has always been to assist them in capturing better images, finding joy in photography, and either starting or expanding their photography businesses. Through this YouTube channel, I continue to share my knowledge and experiences with my audience, providing valuable insights to help you "GET BETTER PICTURES."
