The printed image shows our successes and our faults at a much higher level of detail than the digital image. To become better photographers, it helps to understand this by creating the printed image as a final product.
This Month’s Printed Vision Session: Printing Diptychs and Triptychs!
Images can exist on their own or as a succession of multiple images. Alone, images tell a story within the frame, but in a succession, the story also exists between the cadence. In this print review, we will create a diptych or a triptych–two or three images printed and to be displayed side-by-side– tying multiple images together as one story.
For this session, we will be creating diptychs (2) or triptychs (3) with images printed up to 8×12″ in size. We are happy to make a larger or additional print outside of the class for an additional fee, but consider that 8×12″ prints will result in 12×16″ or 18×16″ in print size–any larger will be pretty big!
This Print Review topic will meet for two sessions. In the first session, we will discuss the topic and present a variety of options for you to have your image printed. In between sessions 1 and 2, attendees will independently process images and submit them to the instructor for printing. Educator Paul Nelson will produce a recorded image review, discussing paper options, editing suggestions, and more, to be sent back to you leading up to the second session. Paul will then print images for the class. In the end, you will receive 2-3 prints that will make up a diptych or a triptych. (We will also discuss matting and framing options and how to display these images.)

A Note About The Printed Review Series
Our Print Review Monthly is a chance to continue the print conversation over the course of many months. These sessions are excellent for anyone:
• Someone that wants a little help with editing before they get a print
• Someone that does print but has print-related questions
• A person that prints often and wants to try a different paper
• Someone with no knowledge of printing that just wants to get a print!
Come check out why printing is the best thing to do for your photography!
In-Person or Online
This class will be taking place in-person in our Melrose store location and online, in case you cannot attend live. If you cannot attend live, your print can either be mailed to you or picked up at one of our Hunt’s Photo store locations.
