Shoebox Studio - Ottawa, Ontario

As an up-and-coming visual artist in Ottawa, doing my first exhibit at the OAG was a daunting task to take on. But thanks to Sam, even when bumps came up along the way, he was the most supportive person to have with you through the process.

Forever thankful!

For me, as a photographer, it was important to find a studio that would provide high-quality printing. I am so lucky that I found Shoebox! Sam finds an individual approach to each print and makes the whole process professional and quality-oriented.

It is very obvious to see the high level of expertise Sam can implement on a huge range of graphics. His appreciation of highest quality materials and execution is matched with a super friendly delivery of service. Always a pleasure to do business with, plenty more visits to come! Highest recommendation.

I cannot say enough good things about Sam and Shoebox Studio. He is an absolute delight to work with and produces such high quality work. He's the only person I trust with photographing my art (not an easy thing) and he does it beautifully. I've also ordered prints from him and the quality is superb. He undertakes everything he does with care and attention and you can tell that he's really passionate about what he does. Whether you're looking for someone to print your photography or photograph your artwork or restore damaged photos, Sam is the best choice in Ottawa, hands down.

I brought a painting in to Shoebox Studio be professionally photographed and printed. Initially, I went in to meet with Sam to talk about the printing process and what I could expect, and Sam was very welcoming, knowledgable, and responsive. I could not be happier with the final result. Sam captured all of the little details and colour nuances and the accuracy of the reproduction is amazing and really special. I highly recommend.

One of my biggest fears as a photographer is relinquishing my creative control over my art. Sam has been absolutely amazing at making sure I am involved and my prints are to my liking down to the smallest detail. He is very knowledgable about papers, printing processes and more, and can give you detailed insight into how your photos are going to turn out. I have been looking for a printer on and off for almost a year and I can confidently say that, even though I'm a relatively new customer, Sam and Shoebox Studio are my #1 choice! Thanks Sam!

I went to Sam to reproduce/enlarge a wedding photo of my grandparents from many years ago.

Sam did a fantastic job, informing me along the way and explaining in depth the options we had.

Not only did the photo turn out great, but the whole experience was enhanced by his genuine interest and enthusiasm in my project. Sam is a knowledgeable and authentic guy - an absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him!

Thanks Sam!

Sam has always been professional, kind, and best of all, amazing in his talent and passion for fine art printing. My prints from several years ago have passed the test of time and still look as good as they did on day one. He was able to take relatively small files and turn them into gorgeous, large prints. I've also had Sam touch up and enlarge some of my baby photos - my mom cried when she received them. Sam's respectful nature and humble attitude really make a trip to the studio more of a visit to a friend's than a shopping excursion.
