I tried a chain, but the price was crazy high from what I learned from forums. So I went to a local framer and it was $200 less and they were willing to work with me for more than 45 minutes to figure out what was good for the picture. Product was higher quality too.

Later on, that local framer started to learn my preferences and knew what I did and didn't want. It made next visits smoother and quicker. Best part...local business supporting local business.

I've been a Commercial Pro. Photographer for many years, and thought I new a great deal about mounting and framing. In this short tutorial i've learned a lot more. Thank you for your time and effort.
