Prints
Every print is made from the original file, on paper heavy enough to feel like an object. The editioned sizes are signed and numbered on the back, in editions of twenty‑five; the smaller sizes are open. Once an edition closes, it stays closed.
No cart, no checkout, just a conversation.
Tell me what you want
Pick a photograph and a size and hit the button. It lands in my inbox with the details already filled in.
I confirm and invoice
You'll hear back within a day or two with a total including shipping, and a payment link. Custom sizes and framing, just ask.
It arrives in about two weeks
Printed to order and rolled in a rigid tube. The lab takes up to a week, the carrier a few days more. Editioned sizes come to me first to be signed, numbered and certificated, then on to you — add a few days. If it arrives damaged, I reprint it — no argument.
Paper heavy enough to feel like an object.
Lustre photo paper, 240 gsm
A satin photographic stock with a subtle pearl texture and a slight sheen under the light, printed giclée with pigment inks. Satin rather than matte for a reason: matte rag is the default for fine art, but it can't hold a night sky. Satin keeps the blacks black and lets the stars stay points of light instead of gray smudges.
Dew Point comes on Hahnemühle Photo Rag instead: 308 gsm, 100% cotton, fully matte. No sheen at all, a soft textured surface, blacks that stay deep, highlights that go a little gentler. Right for the foggy and soft‑edged frames, wrong for anything with stars in it. Available on request for the others.
Pigment, not dye
Rated for a century-plus behind glass, out of direct sun. Every print carries a white border, sized so a framer can mount it without trimming anything off the image.
Through my hands first
Editioned sizes are shipped to me before they're shipped to you. I sign and number them on the back in pencil, add the certificate, and send them on. Two or three extra days, and the reason an edition means anything.
Twenty-five per photograph. Not per size.
Signed, numbered, certificated
Buy the twelfth print of a photograph at one size and the next one sold at the other is thirteen. When it reaches twenty‑five, that photograph comes off the shop and doesn't come back.
Every editioned print ships with a signed certificate: title, place, year, the number, the paper, and the date it was printed.
The picture, not the object
Unsigned and unnumbered, for people who want the photograph on the wall rather than the artefact. They never count against an edition.
Nothing ships in a soft mailer.
Tube, or boards
Flat in a stiff envelope at 8 × 10; rolled in tissue inside a rigid tube for everything larger. Open‑edition prints leave the lab within a week and take a few days more in transit. Editioned prints come to me first — add a few days for signing.
Printed on your side of the ocean
Printed in the US for US orders and in the UK or EU for European ones, so nothing crosses an ocean to reach you. Shipping goes on the quote before you pay anything.
I reprint it
Arrives damaged: photograph it, send me the photograph, and I reprint it. No forms, no argument, no returning the damaged one.
Just don't like it: fourteen days from delivery on open editions — send it back undamaged and I'll refund the print. Editioned prints are made and signed to order, so those are final unless something's wrong with them.
The ones I get asked.
What size should I get?
Measure the wall, then subtract. A 20 × 30 wants about six feet of clear wall to sit in. If you're between two sizes, take the larger one — nobody has ever told me they wished the print were smaller.
Is it framed?
No. Framing doubles the shipping risk and triples the cost, and you'll pick better than I would. The white border is sized so a framer can mount it without trimming anything.
Can I get a size that isn't listed?
Usually. Ask. Some frames crop badly at some ratios and I'll tell you if yours is one of them.
Do you sell digital files?
No.
Will it fade?
Pigment ink on acid-free paper, behind glass, out of direct sunlight — you'll be fine for longer than you'll own it. Direct afternoon sun will kill any print ever made, including this one.
Where are these taken?
Almost all within three hours of Austin. The specific spot is on the print's page, and where it isn't, it's because the thing living there doesn't need the traffic.
