Hampton Photo Arts

Hampton Photo, Arts and Framing provides archival picture framing. Archival framing, sometimes called ‘museum’ framing, is ideal for those photos and prints you wish to keep as collectibles or heirlooms.

What’s The Difference Between Archival Framing and Ordinary Framing?

Unlike ordinary photo framing, archival framing is designed to last a lifetime. The secret to keeping your photos and prints looking brand new for decades is in our 100% rag, acid-free mats and backing. Here at Hampton Photo, Arts and Framing, we use Peterboro Conservation mats, which meet or exceed The Library of Congress and Fine Art Trade Guild standards for chemical composition. Wood frames can cause chemical damage so for archival framing, Hampton Photo Arts offers a wide variety of custom metal frames to suit your individual needs.

Stretching

We offer two different ways to create your art print on canvas as a ready to hang work of art; museum wrap (museum stretching) and gallery wrap (gallery stretching). Both canvas wrap options utilize museum quality stretcher bars providing you with a finished work. On both of our wrap choices we stretch the canvas around specialized wood bars and securely staple the canvas to the back. After the canvas is stretched, you can choose to frame the wrapped canvas with one of our specialized custom frames, or leave it exactly as is. For more information contact us.
