Good afternoon, hogs,
I want to print some family photos on canvas. Can anyone recommend a good reasonably priced online source?
Thanks in advance for the help.

I get some good results from Sam's Club. They have done several for me.

You say "I want to print..." I am assuming you want to have some printed? Not do it yourself.
Costco, Walmart and Sam's Club offer canvas printing at reasonable prices. Others that do higher quality are also more expensive.
Bay Photo here on the West Coast is highly recommended, I don't know about the Texas area.

I have used Costco and have been very happy with their prices and the quality.

Be very careful because if you do a gallery wrap where the picture is stretched and can be seen on the edges you will loose a couple of inches of your image when they wrap it. If you take a 16x20 image and have them do a 16x20 canvas with a gallery wrap they will actually make it an inch bigger all around so the face of the canvas will be the 16x20 and the extra will wrap around the edges. This will wrap some of the image around to the edge and may wrap the top, bottom, and side of the image around the edge possibly cutting off someones head or feet or maybe eliminate someone from either end of the group by wrapping them around the edge. Make sure you see a preview of what it will look like BEFORE YOU ORDER IT!!!!!

I have used Easy Canvas Prints several times. Prices are good and it gets delivered in about 2 weeks.

Have seen some reviews of photo printers. My notes say MPIX, WHCC, ProDPI, Bay Photo, H&H Color Lab. To stay away from are CG Pro Prints, Adorama Pix, Walmart, Shutterfly.

Canvas on Demand. They are having a sale right now. They have always been very helpful if you have questions. They produced a canvas for my daughter that was supposed to be 16x20 but said it would look better at 19x20 and produced it at the same price as the 16x20 (on sale) for my daughter.

There are two kinds of "wraps" for canvas prints, "mirror" and "image". The samples below are from https://photo-to-canvas.com/mirror-vs-image-wrap/ . Good printers will give you a choice.

Walgreens too. They do 50% sales regularly. I assume others do sales too.
