Preferred Graphics is by far and away the best picture framing company around. After visiting a few other shops, I chose Preferred Graphics to frame a really nice nautical poster for a friend of mine. Working with Paul Iverson over there was so easy. He has such huge selection of frames that made it a really fantastic experience. If you need anything framed. Take it to Preferred Graphics. You'll thank me for saving you the time of driving around to other shops. read more

Paul was able to recommend the best way to mat and frame a painted NYC map that we had for years. By the time we got it framed there was a rip in it. I asked Paul to keep the tear visible when framed but the wife vetoed that idea. Paul was able to adjust the framing to hide the tear with no questions asked...that is awesome customer service! read more

Preferred Graphics Art & Framing - This piece was NYC street art painted on a subway map. We finally got it matted & framed and we couldn't be happier! - Art Galleries Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Paul rules! I recently brought a Keane litho to get framed. I have had it for a while now and just have never brought it in.... I brought it in and told Paul (owner) that my collection of "Big Eyed Pop-Art" are all distressed vintage framing. I explained that I wanted this piece to be framed in something similar. A week latter I get my beautiful "The Stray" back. He uses quality materials. It was framed in wood from Italy that had this amazing distressed look to it.. I am so happy. He does a lot of the framing for big companies like Quicksilver and tons of artist use him for his skills! Anyhoo, he is reasonable and is also prompt! If you are looking for a person who does good framing this is where one should come! read more

Preferred Graphics Art & Framing - My new vintage Canvas mid century piece framed by Paul.. I wanted vintage inspired and he delivered! - Art Galleries Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I had a painting that I recently purchased at an art auction and I wanted to make sure I took it to a quality framing store, since it was a very valuable and meaningful piece of art. I found Paul here on Yelp and I'm so glad I went to his shop. He was very helpful and he has some many beautiful frames to chose from! I had a very specific way that I wanted this painting displayed. He made some suggestions but I felt very strongly about how I wanted it presented. He was very gracious to work with my requests, and I really appreciated that! My painting is now hanging in my living room and looks quite lovely. And I think Paul's quality craftsmenship is the reason why! Oh, and mention that you found him on Yelp...you'll be glad you did! read more

This was my first time ever needing anything professionally framed. I live nearby and saw good reviews on yelp. My grandfather sent me a fragile piece of canvas / a part of a painting he had had for 30+ years from Ireland. I needed to have it framed for my brothers college graduation. The guy here was helpful and nice and I had chosen a mat and frame within like 10 minutes! He suggested an archival uv protected glass which I would have never thought of (and chose) They framed it up and it looked great! If I ever need anything framed again Ill come back :). read more

We just moved here and had various pieces of sentimental art ranging from hand crafted paper bought in fiji to a poem hand written on a thank you card by my best friend to japanese fish rubbings we picked up a store closing-- things that were very sentimental but not necessarily expensive. I went in with no real vision and Paul Iverson helped me pick out frames and mattes for each one of them in a helpful, relaxed way, always with alternatives for different price points. I never felt pressured in any way, and there was no upsell. I could tell right away that he knew what he was doing and more importantly, he cared very much about the final result. He gave a 20% discount since my husband and I chose the place based on the yelp reviews too! The pieces all came back in a week and they are stunning. Every piece has been totally elevated. We can't wait to put them up. Oh, and he also gave some great advice for framing pieces for our nursery (plexiglass so if they fall in an earthquake it won't shatter). We will be bringing back work to have the glass swapped out. read more

I found Paul the owner through another artist friend of mine. Now I take all my art and photography to get framed. Super reasonable prices. Highly recommended. read more

The owner is an expert, and his prices are fair. No need to go anywhere else! He framed by child's art beautifully.... I was hesitant to have something professionally framed for the first time but now I'm hooked, will def be framing more of my kids drawings for years to come. Thank you Paul! read more

I've used Paul now several different times to get things framed for my house. He's great, easy to work with in figuring out the right framing and matting, his work is very high quality, and his prices are very reasonable. Recently my wife and I had a 'deadline' of sorts since we were having a big party, and he was able to finish our 5 pieces on time so everything looked great for the party. read more

These guys are awesome!!! We brought a couple of things to be framed: My husbands beloved Joy Division poster and a couple of baby pictures of my son. I took a picture of a frame that had another picture in, I wanted to get matching ones to do a collage of baby pictures on the wall. They matched it perfectly and even saved me money!! Bottom line check them out, I highly recommend PG read more

I came here after seeing the positive reviews on Yelp and I am glad I did. I had four 17x11" surf photographs that I needed framed. Preferred Graphics did a great job and produced exactly what I was looking for. Paul (the owner) and the staff were very professional and great to work with. I highly recommend them! read more

I have taken many pieces of art here to get framed and I am always happy with the the job they do and the customer service. I have taken all ranges of sizes and types of art here. Great prices and speedy service. I have even bought some art from their archives. Recently had some art framed for a nursery and it turned out amazing. Aaron Bro. quoted 10x the amount I paid here to frame 2 medium size pieces of art. I will only take my framing business here for now on! read more

I found this place on yelp and thought I'd give them a try since they seemed pretty cheap and there is no clear yelp winner in framing...at least not that I could find. I had a 20 x 18 inch diploma that I actually framed myself to match a second diploma, except when I hung it on my wall I could see all sorts of wrinkles and it was pissing me off. I tried ironing it and pressing it under books for days and it would look wrinkle free until I hung it and then I saw them again. So I called these guys and they sounded really nice and willing to work with me so I took in the framed diploma and they worked their magic. I cant remember the terms he used, but they pretty much adhered the diploma to a piece of foam board and then put it back in the frame I already had...so it looks the exact same from the front but with no stupid wrinkles :) Had I actually gotten it professionally framed in the first place it probably would have been easier & less time consuming...next time I'll just take my stuff here. As for the stop/staff, the place was small but it worked. And the guy that helped me was super nice and 1) didn't make me feel stupid for attempting to frame it myself and failing, 2) didn't try to push me to buy a whole new frame since it was a matching set and 3) was fast, professional, and very experienced and knowledgeable about what my options were. The service definitely made me want to bring them my business again. read more

The owners and employees are very personable. Their work has always been of the highest standards. I have never been unhappy with their work. read more

My daughter and I are both artists and we take everything to Preferred Graphics to be framed. Paul is always helpful with creative input to highlight our artwork and pieces that we purchase. I wouldn't get anything framed anywhere else for any price. read more

I cannot tell you how many times or how many things I've had framed at Preferred in the last ten years, but I can tell you that I've never been disappointed or treated as if my framing job wasn't as important to them as it was to me. My brother's company had a lot of work done at Preferred, and I saw what was going into their shop and how it was coming out (it all looked like high-end art). When I asked if he could get me a price on framing, he said "go down there, they're cool." When I went in I didn't know what to expect--or what to ask--and they knew that and didn't make me feel dumb about it. They took the time to explain things about framing and matting and design even though they were busy; Paul and Mike still do this--and I still appreciate it. They are hands-on, they treat you nicely, and they understand that what you're bringing in is important to you. These guys are always busy, but they've never treated me like a number on an invoice, they've never treated me or anyone I've sent down like they'd never see us again, and they've never done any framing that I wasn't happy with. The guys at Preferred are craftsman--that's the difference. And the work they do, without question, is done the right way. If you want a good deal on professional framing that is done with high-quality materials, go to Preferred. The work they do will not disappoint you. read more

Found Paul on Yelp, walked in and he was able to help me right away with maintenance on an old print in a frame. Back not long later same afternoon and it was all beautifully done at a reasonable cost! Very glad I found Paul, will be back for all framing and display jobs. read more
