Pretty much any place that can make prints can do any size you need. In some cases they print it on 11x13 paper though.

I love my guillotine cutter. I was all set to buy an expensive paper trimmed and my fiance brought home an old but great condition guillotine paper cutter that they were going to throw away. Works perfectly on all my stuff that is up to 12 inches. I do need to upgrade to a larger one though. But they are cheaper than the paper trimmers and do a fine job.

No it isnt. Get it printed at 9x12, they will probably print it on 13x19 paper, find a paper cutter somewhere, the old school slot machine arm kind(guillotine) and trim it up.

My problem is, I can't find a place to get anything printed that size..i was asking for suggestions on where to print...no one that I've looked up prints that size, the closest is 8x10 or 11x14

If you have a Costco warehouse near you, and have basic photoshop skills,
you can gang print 2 9x12's on a 12x18 sheet (for $2.99) and, if you are lucky,
Costco will let you use their Rotatrim to cut the print down the center.  Assuming
you don't have a rotary trimmer that is...

my lab, mpix, offers 10x15 paper... you could just create a 10x15 canvas in photoshop, and drag the 9x12 image onto it, then have it printed on 10x15 paper. just my .02

Costo also prints 9 x 12 for 1/2 the price of a 12 x 18 w/o the cutting. Why waste time in PS and put 2 images on one sheet and then have to cut it?

Some Costco's do an outstanding job and others not so good. Make sure to go to www.drycreekphoto.com and download the Costco profile for your store. Convet your photos to the Costco color profile and the prints should look outstanding.

Its an off size..
Some agencies use 9 X 12. Is your book 9 x 12?? I f not you may consider changing to 11 x 14., because is a more "standard" size, and they will cost the same... Because they are printed on 11 x 14 paper, not 13 x 19.  If you get them printed at a professional lab, then they will cut them for you....

Models do not use 11x14 books.  Haven't in the last 20 years.  9x12 is the standard for almost all agencies (except in some very small cities where 8x10 is still used.)

Most professional labs will print 9x12 - No problem. Even Costco will print them and will build a template if there is enough call for them.   You can put 4 9x12s on a 18x24 too.

Really?  Then I'm in trouble.  Should have thought of that first.  Damn.  Good thing I only ordered two pics in 11x14.
