Hey guys I have my class final photo project coming up here soon and im going to be printing 8x12 prints but I want them in a 11x14 frame. Does anyone know where I could get pre cut matte with the 8x12 cutouts?

Thanks
BA

I've never seen a off-the-shelf 8 x 12 print to fit a 11 x 17....but maybe they do. I would suggest getting them special ordered. I order my frames/mats from www.documounts.com (external link).

Do 8x10 prints instead. Just because your camera's image sensor is 3:2 ratio, doesn't mean you have to use every photo from it as such. I often use a 4:5 ratio overlay to strengthen compositions based upon the subject matter.

I thought I could find some on line for you, but no luck. You'll need to use a 12 x 16 or a 16 x 20 frame for an 8 x 12 photo if you use this supplier: http://www.framedestin​ation.com/ (external link)
There are many others on-line, but none that I found had the combination you desired. Of course, there are always custom cut mats.
