Blacklist Prints is proudly owned and operated by Scott & Kylie. When the mining downturn happened in Mackay, we had to start looking for another option as we knew we wanted to start our family soon.

When we were looking for new business opportunities we were searching for something that excited both of us. We looked at many different ventures including lawn mowing, solar panel cleaning, gelato, an educational toy shop… the list goes on. At one stage we were close to buying a food franchise. But serving hotdogs all day? Not really riveting stuff.

We wanted something creative that we could express our selves.

It was during a long drive to visit family members that we were discussing local businesses. Scott, who is a professional photographer, mentioned that canvas printing would definitely be a viable idea. I’m not sure why it took us so long to think of it. It seems so obvious now.

Blacklist Prints was born and we stated making Canvas Prints.

We researched everything from types of canvas, designs of stretcher bars, wide format printers, hanging wire options, even the best type of staples… everything.

Soon after, Scott’s newest toy arrived weighing in at 111kg plus stand and being 2m in length.

Scott’s not only a photographer. He is a perfectionist with an eye for minute detail. We didn’t want Blacklist Prints to be another company offering poor quality workmanship. It is our mission to provide each of our customers with stunning prints of high quality at reasonable prices.
