Every print is made to order. Nothing sits in a warehouse waiting, and nothing is mass-produced.
The paper
All prints are made on lustre photo paper. It has a fine surface texture that cuts reflections without going flat, and it holds shadow detail and colour separation better than a gloss finish.
For this work that matters. The frost images live in a narrow band of pale blue where a lesser paper would band or posterise, and the alpenglow frames depend on holding warm highlight detail right up to the edge of clipping.
Framing
Framed prints ship ready to hang, in a slim classic wood profile with acrylic glazing rather than glass. Acrylic is lighter, safer, and won't shatter in transit — which is why large framed pieces are practical to ship at all.
Three finishes:
- Black — recessive and neutral. The safest choice, and the strongest for the winter and Iceland work.
- White — disappears against a pale wall and keeps high-key images feeling open.
- Natural wood — warm and grained. Suits the plains, Florida and Lisbon frames.
Hanging hardware is included. Frames are supplied without a mat, so the image runs to the edge of the moulding.
Sizes follow the photograph, not a template
Most print shops crop your image to fit whatever sizes they stock. This one doesn't.
Each photograph is offered in the sizes that match its own proportions — so a 3:2 frame is offered at 8×12, 12×18, 16×24, 20×30 and 24×36, while a 4:5 composition is offered at 8×10, 11×14, 16×20, 20×24 and 24×30. Wider frames get their own ladder again.
It means the print you receive is the photograph as it was composed, with nothing trimmed off the edges to make it fit a standard frame.
Buying a set
Several of the collections are built as matched sets — Windswept Ridge is three frames of one ridge made minutes apart, and Hoarfrost shares a single palette across five images.
Additional unframed prints in the same order ship at no extra cost, so a three-panel wall costs the same to deliver as a single print.
Care
Keep prints out of direct sunlight. Handle unframed prints by the edges, and if you're framing one yourself, ask for UV-filtering glazing and acid-free materials — it costs a little more and adds decades.
