Photograph or Painting? How About Both?

Thanks to Easy Canvas Prints, I recently had the opportunity to try out canvas printing for the first time. It was a surprisingly easy and fun experience that got me hooked on canvas printing. 

Easy Canvas Prints made the whole printing process very simple and straightforward. Their site even helps you select a size by virtually placing the image on a wall above a couch for perspective.

One of my fears was that my image might turn out blurry, but Easy Canvas was very clear with the directions to help me size my image appropriately. They also have a test to ensure your image meets the resolution requirement before you place your order.

Our canvas print showed up in beautiful condition and it had a painterly quality that is very unique.  I also love that it’s mounted on wood so there’s no need to frame it.

All in all, Easy Canvas Prints is true to their name! The hardest part was choosing a photo. I had to sort through thousands of photos and I was so tempted to print more than one (still am tempted…).

I finally chose the picture of Noel and me kissing in the middle of a clay mud field. I love this photo for many reasons…the colors, the moment, the kiss, and most importantly, the story.

This was taken during our East Coast road trip, when Noel proposed. We were on our way to North Carolina and the sun was setting. It was super foggy but that made the light absolutely stunning. I asked Noel to pull over so I can take a picture and we randomly found this beautiful clay mud field. Noel pulled right into the mud and I set my camera on the car hood and began to photograph the scene. But as I reviewed the photos, I realized it was lacking something…it needed a subject. I set the camera on timer and we ran out into the field. Just moments before the camera clicked, Noel dipped me and we kissed. Voila!

I am so glad I now I have a gorgeous 11 x 17 canvas print of the moment to hang on our wall.

I can now speak from experience that printing your photo on canvas will do it the right justice. That soft, painterly quality gives it just the right feel.
