20x16 Framed Canvas Printing

Hello Folks! I'm trying to figure out how to shoot my landscapes so that they will fit on the canvas the way I want them to. I got one done for free and am getting another done so I want this one to be right.
The image I got done is below. The image would not fit properly in that only the bridge is shown on the front of the canvas. Top and bottom edges, where the canvas wraps the frame, show a small portion of the unprinted canvas.
So how do I shoot it? Or how do I resize it? Or do I just need to do a custom size frame?
TIA,
Zain

It's the one with the bridge.

This is a question of print aspect ratio matching photo aspect ratio. In this case the print ratio is 4:5 and your photo is 2:3. Resizing can distort the image (tho some editing programs can handle this without doing so). So the easiest way to make sure that the whole image prints is to choose a print size with the same aspect ratio. In this case, 15x10, 18x12, 30x20, etc.
#4 from our printing tips help page talks about this in more detail.
