For Christmas, I am getting my parents some prints of photographs I took at my brothers wedding (they are of my parents). The problem is, I don't have a printer, I've never order prints off the web (or brick & mortar), and I'm going to be getting a tiny number of prints made (3-4). I need to be ordering these soon, so if you guys could give me some recommendations of where to go, I'd be infinitely grateful.

Oh, and I'm here at work so I can't link to the files, or get many details about sizes, etc. I'll update this with that info once I get home.

Thanks again!

^^^^ I have gotten good results with MPix, and they are usually very fast.

Not sure where you are in the world, but photobox.com or photobox.co.uk have many options on size and finish. Plus they do books, coaster, mousemat etc.

Mpix is good but if you are only getting 3 photos then you will pay more for shipping then the actual prints.

Why don't you go to your local photo store and have them printed. There are only 3-4 pics and the "per pic" savings of doing it online will be minimal. THe local shop will do a great job and you can ask them for pointers and the extra investment in the print price will more than pay for itself

Now - Get back to work........
