FAQ

Photography Questions

What kind of camera do you use? Do you use and iphone or camera?

I use a Canon Mark 5D III for all my work. I have a few lenses but my favorite is the Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L

I would love to start playing with a mirrorless camera. That will be my next camera.

I use my iphone for most of my daily pictures of my family, dogs, etc. I really do love the ease of the iphone.

Are these photographs, paintings or just highly edited?

All of the images you see are photographs. I use a technique called intentional camera movement - meaning that I use a longer exposure so that I can actually move the camera while taking the picture. This method enables the images to appear as if "painted".

I edit in Lightroom. I really am trying to learn Photoshop. All of the motion and movement is done in camera but I do adjust and enhance the color.

Product Questions

What kind of frames do you use?

Every frame is custom made to order by our friends at Simply Framed.

  • Wood Gallery Frame in White, Black, Natural, and Walnut - please contact us for special orders 
  • Fine art Epson Premium luster photo paper 
  • Floated mat - art appears to float over the mat and a spacer prevents the image from touching the paper
  • UV-shielding plexiglass, which protects against about 82-85% of UV rays 
  • Hanging hardware
  • Hanging and care instructions

 

What photography paper do you use for prints?

I use Epson Premium Luster 260 Photographic fine art paper. Mid-weight, durable, bright white paper with a luster finish.

Tell me about the metal prints

Metal prints are one of our most popular items!

Our single MetalPrints™ infuse dyes directly into specially coated aluminum sheets. Because the image is infused into the surface and not on it, images take on an almost magical luminescence. The ultra-hard scratch-resistant surface is waterproof/weatherproof for up to 5 years without noticeable fading (if not in direct sunlight) Can be cleaned easily.

  • High Gloss Surface
  • 3/4" Inset Frames for wall hanging. Recessed from the edges of the print, so the print appears to float away from the wall when hung. 
  • Avoid direct sunlight
  • Estimated Production Time: 1 week
Tell me about acrylic prints

Acrylic's clarity and substantial feel is an impressive way to elevate images and artwork. The 3D luminosity of the polished surface brings images to life with vibrant colors and depth.

  • Acrylic: 1/8" Glossy Acrylic, Vivid surface
  • Backing: DiBond 
  • Estimated Production Time: 8-10 Business days
Do you sell digital files of all your work?

The short answer is - I do not. I only sell digital files for specific pieces. For a variety of reasons.

For some of my work, I simply cannot because they are licensed to a gallery or part of an ongoing art exhibition.

I can't let all my files be sold digitally but I will have a few online for people to download and print on their own.

Can you give me exact measurements of your framed prints?

Every frame is custom made to order. Our measurements are fairly consistent but please note that they are individually made and some very slight differences can occur.

Framed Measurements

  • 8 x 12 (1” mat) is 10.875 in. x 14.875 in.
  • 12 x 18 (1.5” mat) is 15.75 in. x 21.75 in.
  • 16 x 24 (1.5” mat) is 19.75 in. x 27 in.
  • 24 x 36 (2”mat) is 29.25 in. x 41.25 in.
  • 30 x 45 (2”mat) is 35.25 in. x 50.25 in.

Metal and Acrylic measurements are the size that you order as there are no frames.

Ordering

Do you do commissioned work?

Absolutely - For example, I have had many clients request photographs from a specific location - ie. they want a horizon photograph from their hometown beach. I will do my best to accommodate if it is somewhat local to me. Otherwise, email me. We can discuss. 

How quick is the turnaround time? I need it soon.

White we try and process quickly, our printers do take a lot of effort in making sure you we give the best quality. With that said our standard time is about 7-12 business days before it can be shipped.

However, if you need it faster please contact me so that I can see if we can get it to you sooner.

Can I cancel my order?

I completely get it, I make mistakes or change my mind too! Most orders are immediately sent to my printer and framer so most times I cannot cancel. However, please contact me immediately if you wish to cancel. While I can't guarantee anything, I will see what I can do.

I saw something you posted on social media and it is not on your website, how can I order it?

My social media is primarily an outlet where I post what i am working on. If there is something you like, please contact me!
