Money money money

Ok so i have just realised how woefully under-thought-about i have been in terms of dimensions and frames and all that jazz. I just picked this proportional size for the images and thought "oh yea that'll be sweet"...fail...epic fail.
So i have a frame that is 22x28 inches, its cheap (only cost $22USD) but there are several problems. One, using this frame means i am going to have to crop my images down to fit this size, it is smaller proportions than as it is in camera. I like the format of the standard in camera frame, the images were shot and frame to this so it makes sense to keep the standard (i want to say 35mm) dimensions.

The other option would be to crop the images down to the panoramic, 16:9 kind of style of image (reminiscent or Aaron Hobson etc) I think this is the only way i would like to crop them...but then this means making custom frames OR getting them professionally framed...hence the money money money.
