Stupid question re: engagement pictures

So I had my engagement pictures taken in March and when I went to pick them up they were all on two sheets....I wanted to frame one of the pictures for my mom and FMIL for Mother's Day so do I need to go to the photographer and ask for the original or can I somehow enlarge the picture from the contact sheet. Very stupid question I know, but I am clueless! LOL

Thanks ladies!!

Also, you should try to contact your photographer to see if they can give you reprints in the size that you want for those pics. That will be better quality than using the enlargement machines (they scan the pics).

Ask your photographer for a cd with all the photos-this is what mine gave me. Then you just have to print them.

Ask if you can have the digital negatives on a cd, so you can reprint them. They may charge you for it, but they may not. The reprint machines at CVS, Walmart, etc, only scan in the photo, so you may not get the best quality shot out of doing it that way. GL!
