PHOTO 354: Printing your images at home with guest Ian van der Wolde

So you want to be a photographer: Transform your skills and build a profitable photography business

Ever wanted to print your own image at home but achieve the professional output you would get from a lab? Meet multi award winning Australian photographer Ian van der Wolde, a successful Melbourne based commercial photographer who specialities include advertising, aerial, fashion, food, corporate, people, public relations, portraiture, product and industrial photography. Ian also specialises in digital colour management and fine art printing. We chat about: commercial photography and finding clients, printer recommendations, paper recommendations, when to use glossy vs matt papers, archival printing, colour profiles, whether you can still get good looking prints from a tablet or laptop? Find out why your images look great on-screen and too dark in print and how to fix this, the importance of having the correct ambient lighting when proofing prints and editing files, the best monitors for editing and printing images, Ian’s printing protocol, jpeg compression and banding – and much more.
