Random FAQ
1. Why the heck are your prints so expensive? I can print a photo for 30 cents somewhere else.
You absolutely can. But it will not be the same thing.
For my photographic work, I use fine art papers and exclusively giclée printing with high-quality pigment inks. It is the only printing method I am happy with when it comes to reproducing the colours, tonal range and details of my photographs the way I intended them. This combination is also designed for longevity. Unlike ordinary consumer prints, high-quality pigment prints on archival fine art papers are much more resistant to fading, yellowing and colour shifts over time when stored and displayed properly.
I also deliberately choose high-quality, more sustainable materials wherever possible instead of turning my work into another disposable plastic-coated object.
I made a conscious decision not to go down the mass-production route. I would rather offer fewer pieces and make them properly than produce a lot of cheaper work just for the sake of selling more.
2. I've spotted another photo of yours that I like. Can I get that as a print?
You absolutely can. If a photograph of mine has caught your eye but isn't available in the shop, just get in touch. Tell me what you have in mind ... the size, where you would like to hang it, or simply the idea you have. I'll get back to you with the options and a price.
2. Will there be a photo "Run" in the calendar?
I am very sorry to disappoint you, but no.
Run is strictly limited to only five fine art prints per size and will stay that way. It remains one of my most valuable and exclusive works, so I do not reproduce it on calendars, postcards or other products.
3. Are there any new products coming?
Most likely.
In this slightly insane era of AI-generated everything, I think it matters more than ever what we choose to put into our homes, where it came from and whether there is an actual person and story behind it.
4. I am short on money. Do you accept any other forms of payment?
Yes!
We can exchange art. Or you can buy me lunch at your restaurant, offer me a hotel stay, a training session or a massage. Or come up with something equally useful .. I'm all ears.
5. How do I frame your photos?
You can always contact me if you need help!
I have one personal rule when it comes to framing my photographs: I usually prefer them without glass. I do not like the feeling of the print being locked away behind an invisible wall. Of course, this also means the photograph needs a little more care and protection.
Every product that is intended to be framed afterwards is prepared in standard dimensions, so you should be able to find a suitable frame quite easily.
If you use a passepartout, I strongly recommend choosing an acid-free one. Acidic materials can cause yellowing and discoloration over time, which can eventually affect both the passepartout and the print itself.
