I think I recall from Mark's videos that enlarged photos should be printed in glossy. But I called Office Depot and they told me that when laminated, glossy prints oftentimes ripple. Could I work from a photo in matte finish just as well? I'd appreciate any thoughts on this.

On each occasion I am warned about the risk of wrinkles in the laminate. None, so far, show any wrinkling.

The main reason why glossy paper is better than matte is because the glossy surface can provide darker blacks since less light is scattered from the surface of the paper. I would assume (but this might be wrong) that a subsequent lamination, since it renders a new surface, with a new plastic to air interface, causes the initial matte or glossy paper surface to have much less of an effect if any.
