Basically any framing place can handle that. You're deciding based on the artistic style of the framer. I have had good experience with Framed on 5th recently.

I had some prints from some favourite golf courses framed for my office last year. It was expensive. Around $200 each. Looks great but be prepared to spend if you want an upgraded look.

I cant reccomend anywhere in Calgary, but I had a print that was an odd shape. Took it to a local camera/framing shop. Paid for a new frame with matting, and they cut the matting to properly fit the picture. It was like $5 or something.
I'd walk into your local framing shop and ask.

The new goggles also do nothing.

Michaels will do custom framing as well, I've had one frame made from there and it was fine for the price.

For 3 difference sized pieces under the same piece of glass I would bet it will be a good deal more expensive than a single piece. I would be surprised if it's under $300.

When my father in law passed away many years ago we had his service picture and badge from when he served on the Bowness Police Force.
I used Avenida Framing and they did an amazing Job.
They are part of Webster Galleries now I guess.

You could also buy three frames and hang them side by side, for a less complicated alternative. Or you can arrange them in a triangle and hang them from a ceiling fan for a more active display.

Costco used to do this and it's too bad because they were way cheaper than others and did a good job but they eliminated this when they got rid of the photo centers

Uh, there is a number you can call for questions like this. It starts 91 but I can't remember the last number.

Funny thing, that...you don't need that last number. If you just press 9 and 1, then wait...you'll still get 'that number'. ;P

So the whole trope of dialling 9-1 and then hovering over the one will get you the dispatch? Good to know!
