I offer open edition prints for every photograph. For a long time I believed limited edition printing was the right way to sell prints. I now realize that digital photography is unlike other forms of art: you will always have the digital file, and therefore, always have the option of printing more. With painting and film photography, for example, it is demanding work to create a line of limited edition prints. With digital photography, exact replicas will always be effortless.

Every print is shipped with a signed certificate of authenticity and includes the specific print number of the image. All prints sold are then added to a registry, tracking how many prints of each image have been produced.

Mounting Options

Single Weight Matboard - Mounting your print to a matboard gives it extra support, thus lengthening the expected lifespan. I strongly recommend spending a little more to take advantage of this option. Matting and framing will be necessary to showcase the print.

Canvas on Matboard - This mounting option is used frequently to display work in art galleries. The image is printed on canvas and bonded to matboard to increase support, thus lengthening the expected lifespan. Matting and framing will be necessary to showcase the print.

Gallery Wrap – Gallery wraps are quickly becoming the most popular way to showcase prints. Canvas is stretched taught over a wooden frame to create stunning works that are ready to be displayed, no matting or framing necessary. These prints are more expensive than their traditional counterparts, but the costs associated with matting and framing traditional photographs can make these gallery wraps a great investment.

Unmounted Print - I also offer unmounted prints. Image quality remains exactly the same, but the print will lack the support found in the other three options. Matting and framing will be necessary to showcase the print.

Paper

Fujicolor Crystal Archive Professional Paper (via Mpix) is used for all traditional printing. With a rated archival value of 100 years in home display settings and 200 years in dark storage, this is the most trusted paper in the industry. It renders near perfect color and saturation when compared to the digital negative.

​Gallery wrap options are printed on professional 20.5 mil poly/cotton canvas at Artistic Photo Canvas in Venice, Florida. They specialize in canvas and panoramic printing, and their quality control is second-to-none. Every print is seen through printing, construction and shipment by a dedicated professional.

Inks

The printing process at Mpix doesn't actually involve the use of inks. Their aforementioned papers are coated with silver halide and exposed to RGB lasers, a process that is as archival (and beautiful) as they come.
​
Epson Ultrachrome HDR Ink is used for canvas printing. Epson inks set the standard by which others professional inks are measured. With two additional cartridge colors (green and orange), prints made with these inks are nothing short of amazing. Colors are vivid and accurate, and canvas images printed with this ink will control conversation in any room.

Matting and Framing

Due to the near infinite selection of mats and frames available today (not to mention personal preferences of the buyer) I offer traditional prints mat-less and frame-less. I suggest white or black mats within black frames, though this is simply a personal preference. If you don't feel comfortable matting and framing an image, please contact me. I'd be happy to do this work for you if it would make you more comfortable.
