Question
Which finish is better for business cards with photographs?
Answer
Glossy is the stronger choice for photo-driven cards. Its reflective coating boosts color saturation and sharpness, so headshots, product shots, and property photos look vivid and detailed.
- Gloss amplifies saturation and fine detail.
- Matte absorbs light, which can mute photographic images.
- Use gloss for cards built around a headshot or product image.
- Design with high-resolution photos so the finish has detail to enhance.
