FinerWorks offers FREE order fulfillment in the form of white label (drop shipping) for artists and photographers who want prints shipped under their name or brand.
This brief guide is meant to highlight those features we offer at FinerWorks for artists and photographers who use us as their order fulfillment service. At FinerWorks, we believe providing reliable order fulfillment must be simple. In addition, we want artists and photographers to be confident that their customers will receive the prints exactly as intended. There is no application process, and it does not take any special knowledge or technical expertise. If you know how to access photos or image files off your computer and use the Internet, your basic requirements have been met. If you have used FinerWorks before for online ordering, this guide will help you make sure you have not overlooked some of the tools we offer.
What is Drop Shipping?
One of the first things we did when we built our initial ordering system over a decade ago was provide an automatic drop shipping option. Drop shipping simply means you do not need to carry any inventory or worry about packaging and shipping. You commission the drop shipper (which would be FinerWorks) to send the order to your customers, but branded under your name, so it looks like you or your company shipped it.
Many big online companies rely on this method either solely or to let them ship products that they normally would not be able to inventory. Amazon.com uses this method for some of the items sold, and at the individual level, eBay and Etsy sellers use this method all the time.
How it Works
At checkout in the area where you select your “Shipping Method,” there will be a check box you can click to indicate you want it drop-shipped. If you provide a valid address in your account’s business profile, we will automatically check this for you. The order is then shipped and made to look like you are the sender. No information about us will be included. Prices will also be removed from the packing slip.
Some Examples
Photo Prints
The following items can be ordered ready to hang or will have hanging options available for ordering:
- Framed Prints (Canvas or Paper)
- Stretched & Mounted Canvas
- Wood Prints
- Acrylic Glass Prints
- Acrylic Prints – Floating Framed
- Metal Prints
- Dibond Prints
We have built in volume & bulk discounts that will cover most scenarios; however, if the scope and size of the order is not listed when checking pricing, please contact us with the details of what you want to order and the time frame so that we can work out the fulfillment and pricing of the order.
Most people order online via our website’s Print Online Setup Tool. Using this method, you will upload your image file(s), select the product type, styles, and size of print you want, then add the item to your shopping cart.
Some businesses that use us may have their websites connected to us, either through our Order Fulfillment App or one of our legacy integrations, which allow for batch order submissions.
FinerWorks is unable to accept orders by phone or email.
Home printers and many local shops can’t match the precision, quality, and archival-grade materials we use. Plus, we offer scalable solutions, professional packaging, and integration options for online sellers—saving you time and helping you grow your business.
FinerWorks uses professional lab-quality printers with archival-grade inks and photo papers to deliver stunning color accuracy and detail. We specialize in high-end photo printing for artists, photographers, and creative professionals—making us a trusted choice for gallery-quality results.
Yes! Many of our customers are artists and photographers who sell prints through platforms like Etsy or at art shows. Our photo prints are made to be displayed, framed, and sold, with consistent color quality and professional finishes.
Yes. FinerWorks offers drop shipping with optional branding customization, such as branded packing slips. This allows you to fulfill customer orders directly and professionally, without ever having to handle the prints yourself.
We offer a wide range of standard sizes such as 4×6, 5×7, 8×10, and 11×14, along with larger formats like 16×20 and 20×30. For some medias, you can also enter custom dimensions for more unique or panoramic prints.
Most photo prints are produced and ready to ship within 1–3 business days. Multiple shipping options are available, including expedited and international delivery. Our fulfillment process is fast and reliable.
You can preview them online. For a physical proof, we encourage you to order a single print as a test proof, especially for large orders or high-value images. This ensures the photo prints match your expectations before committing to volume production.
Smaller prints are typically shipped flat in sturdy mailers, while larger sizes are rolled in tubes for protection. All orders are carefully packaged to avoid damage during transit.
While standard photo prints are unmounted, FinerWorks offers framing and mounting options for some of the non-Kodak photo papers. If you’re looking for a ready-to-hang or gallery presentation, we recommend exploring those services.
Unlike consumer-grade labs, FinerWorks offers professional output tailored for artists and photographers. We provide better color accuracy, superior papers, and packaging options for resellers. Plus, our print-on-demand and drop shipping services make it easy to scale your business.
