Yellow Lab Imaging makes it easy to order wallet size photo prints online with the care and craftsmanship of a real photo lab. Wallet prints have been a fixture of portrait sessions for as long as photography has been accessible — a few for you, a few for grandparents, one tucked behind a driver's license. That tradition hasn't gone away. It's just moved online, and we print a lot of them, especially during graduation season and around weddings.
We focus on craftsmanship, speed, and personal care. That means your images are printed with real attention to detail — not simply pushed through an automated system. We’re not local — we’re national — and we ship premium photo printing delivered across the U.S.
What Size Is a Wallet Print?
Our wallet prints measure 2.375" x 3.375" — a step up from a bare 2x3, with a bit more breathing room around the image. They come on a 7x10 sheet of eight prints, die-cut with rounded corners for a finished, professional look straight off the press. No trimming, no sharp corners.
Wallets are ordered by the sheet, and each sheet contains eight identical prints of the same image — you can't mix different photos on one sheet. Want wallets from two different photos? That's two sheet orders, sixteen prints total.
Looking for something even smaller, sized to fit behind a credit card? Our 2x3 mini print is one size down. The wallet print is the step up — more image area, a polished die-cut finish, and that classic portrait-studio look.
How Many Should I Order?
Since wallets ship by the sheet — eight prints per sheet, all from the same image — your order quantity will always be a multiple of eight. One sheet is a good starting point for a modest list: a set of grandparents, a couple of aunts and uncles, a close friend or two. Two sheets covers a wider circle — extended family, teachers, coaches, coworkers. For graduation announcements or wedding thank-you cards, where the list runs long, three or more sheets isn't unusual — and it gets cheaper per sheet the more you order from one photo:
- 1 sheet (8 wallets): $8.50
- 3 sheets (24 wallets): $21.95 — $7.32/sheet
- 6 sheets (48 wallets): $39.95 — $6.66/sheet
- 12 sheets (96 wallets): $69.95 — $5.83/sheet
If you're printing a large graduation announcement list from a single senior photo, the volume tiers above are built for exactly that.
Our honest advice: order a few more than you think you need. Wallet prints are affordable, and running short is more frustrating than having extras on hand.
Who Are Wallet Prints Best For?
- Graduation announcements: our busiest wallet season. The announcement goes out, the wallet print goes with it, and it gets kept long after the card is recycled.
- Wedding thank-you cards: a favorite portrait from the wedding day, printed and tucked into the thank-you note — a small gesture that carries real weight.
- School and portrait photos: the classic use case, for teachers, coaches, grandparents, and friends.
- Family and keepsakes: a wallet print of a new grandchild or family milestone, carried around for years.
- Military and first responder families: a uniform portrait or family photo in wallet size, close at hand.
- Scrapbooks and memory projects: compact, shareable, and easy to work into a layout.

File Requirements for Wallet Prints
Small prints still need good files. Here's what to check before you order:
- Minimum resolution: at 300 dpi, our 2.375"x3.375" wallet size needs at least 713x1013 pixels — a bar that virtually any photo from the last decade will clear easily. Heavily cropped images are where people run into trouble; check pixel dimensions before ordering if you've cropped in tight.
- Aspect ratio: wallet prints are roughly a 2:3 ratio. Most smartphone and DSLR photos shoot at 3:4 or 4:5, so a small amount of the image gets cropped when sized to fit. Review the crop position in the ordering tool before submitting — the default centers the image, which isn't always where the important part of your photo is.
- JPEG format: what our ordering system expects, and what virtually every camera and phone produces by default. Export a JPEG from RAW or TIFF files before uploading.
- sRGB color space: the standard for most cameras and phones. Files processed in a wide-gamut space like Adobe RGB or ProPhoto RGB should be converted to sRGB first, or they'll print with muted, flat color.
Paper & Finish
Our standard Lustre paper is the right choice for wallet prints. The semi-matte surface resists fingerprints — important for prints that get handled and passed around — and holds up well in card slots and billfolds where a glossy print might stick or scuff over time. We print on professional-grade archival materials with inks rated to last 100 years or more under normal display conditions.
A Better Alternative to Mass-Market Printing
If you’re looking for a Shutterfly alternative for wallet prints, Yellow Lab Imaging offers the convenience of online ordering with the quality standards of a real photo lab. We don’t treat your photos like anonymous files in a queue. Every order gets personal attention.
