I produce each individually signed
"Gallery Print" from select images in my
stock. For images that are less than 16" x 24" (16" x
whatever length for panoramas), I produce the
prints myself. My printing process starts with acquiring a
digital file e shoot both Film and Digital. For images that
begin life on film I start with scanning the
original film on a Nikon film scanner or sending the film out to a
quality film service. Next only normal cropping, exposure and
color corrections are made digitally. If it is not on the original
frame, it does not come out on my prints. Each image is then printed
using
Epson Pigmented ink technology. I am currently using an Epson
4800pro These printer use both archival papers and
pigmented inks that can last several times longer than even a normal color
photo without fading.
When I do have to produce prints that are
larger than the 16 x 24"" size I select
printers that use the same high quality and archival processes to
produce my prints. While not offered on this site, I do show
framed images at gallery shows. These are professionally
dry-mounted on foam core board and then matted and framed using the best
archival materials. |
