Portrait Print (Photo Print)

A portrait print is your photo printed on premium photo-quality material. Sharp edges, vivid colour, smooth surface. Typically framed for display.

Best for: Framed photos, formal portraits, wedding photos, graduation prints, memorial prints.

Canvas Print

A canvas print is your photo printed on a canvas-textured material. Has an artistic, painterly feel. Typically displayed without a frame — hung directly on the wall.

Best for: Artistic or casual display, living room feature pieces, home decor.

Which Should You Choose in Lusaka?

For formal occasions (graduation, wedding, memorial, office) — portrait prints look more appropriate and are easier to frame.

For home decor and casual display — canvas-style prints have a more relaxed, artistic feel.

Both are available from The Custom ZM. Ask us which suits your photo and intended display when you WhatsApp.
