You don't need to have a SmugMug account to buy prints and photo gifts.
Step 1: Adding photos to your shopping cart
Video guide: adding photos to your shopping cart
Most gallery owners permit you to buy prints and gifts. If they do you'll find buy icons above each photo.
Click this photo and you'll be able to quickly select multiple print sizes and photo gifts from the photo you're looking at.
Click Checkout if you're ready to proceed with your order. If more than one photo caught your eye, click Back to Photos. Add any printable photos on SmugMug to this same order if you'd like.
To add more than one photo to your cart at once, click the multiple photos link you see in the gallery.
You'll see a thumbnail of every photo in the gallery so you can click to choose:
Selected images have red borders. Click the To Cart button and we'll add all the photos you've selected to your shopping cart.
Step 2: Getting your order "just right"
Video guide: getting your order "just right"
- I've got odd red lines on my photo.
It's a rude shock to discover that your photo won't fit all print sizes without surgery. But at least you're empowered with your own knife. You can tell us what part of the photo to print, right there in the shopping cart. Find out how.
Gotcha: If you do nothing, only what's inside those red lines will print on your photo.
- Which finish should I choose?
You are probably familiar with glossy (shiny) and matte (not-shiny) print finishes, but you may not have seen our most popular choice: lustre finish.
- Do I want "compact camera prints?"
It's painful but true: all compact digital cameras take 3x4 photos, which fit your TV perfectly but do not fit 4x6, 5x7 or 8x10 paper perfectly.
One solution: buy 4x5.3 prints.
- True or Auto Color? When in doubt, choose auto.
- I want 36 matte and 21 glossy...
Near the top of your shopping cart, you'll find a quick way to copy any selection from one print to a group of others.
I've got more questions...
- What about shipping? It's all here.
- What payment methods do you accept? The List.
-
What's that duplicate button for?
Click when you want to buy two different items from the same image.
- Nice catalog. Why don't I have all those choices?
The photo must meet the minimum resolution requirements for an item to be available for purchase. Basically, if your image is too small, we can't make a big print out of it. Also, some professional photographers only sell certain items for a given image.
