As the name suggests, Limited Edition prints are printed in a limited, pre-determined quantity.

Although the specifics of Limited Edition prints are determined by the artist and can vary dramatically between artists, here is how I structure my Limited Edition prints.

When I designate an image as a Limited Edition, it is available in three sizes and each size has a different edition size (or quantity):

• Small: Limited Edition of 50
• Medium: Limited Edition of 30
• Large: Limited Edition of 20

This means that all images offered as Limited Edition prints have a total edition of 100 across all size options. After all 100 prints of any given Limited Edition have been sold, no other prints of that image will ever be produced again (with the exception of artist’s proofs which never exceed 10% of the total edition size).

NOTE: The exact dimensions of Small, Medium, and Large depend on the image, but will always be disclosed prior to purchase.

Simply put, the reason can be found in your nearest Econ 101 textbook. The supply of limited edition prints is lower than open edition prints (because only a certain amount can be produced) and the demand for limited edition prints in the art market tends to be higher than open edition prints since they have a greater chance of maintaining or appreciating their value.

Decreased supply + increased demand = increased price.

Additionally — and this is a more subjective reason — my limited edition prints are the images that I’m most proud of as an artist and the ones that I believe represent the highest caliber of my portfolio.

First and foremost, the most important part of buying photography prints is finding an image that you love. It should be an image that you would enjoy looking at every day.

These are the pro’s and con’s of buying limited edition prints.

Pro’s:

• Limited editions are exclusive. You will be one of very few people in the world to have that image in your home or business.
• They are an investment. Like other investments, they have the potential of appreciating in value over time.
• They are printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308, an archival quality, acid free, 100% cotton, 308gsm fine art paper.
• They are a great conversation starter, as they establish a more intimate relationship between the buyer and the photographer.

Con’s:

• Cost. Limited edition prints cost more than open edition prints.

Taking these pro’s and con’s into consideration, it’s up to you, the buyer, to determine what’s right for you.

Open Edition prints have no limit to the quantity that can be produced. They also come in many more size options. As a result, they do not possess the same exclusivity as Limited Edition prints.

Open Edition prints cost less than Limited Edition prints because they have an unlimited supply and do not carry the same level of exclusivity. Additionally, they are printed on slightly lower quality (but still high quality) paper; therefore, they cost less to produce.

First and foremost, the most important part of buying photography prints is finding an image that you love. It should be an image that you would enjoy looking at every day.

If your budget does not allow for the purchase of a limited edition print, open edition prints can be a great entry point into the world of art collecting.

Unfortunately, due to the complex nature of matting and framing options, it’s not feasible at this time to order your print(s) in a frame via the online ordering process. If you’d like to discuss custom presentation options, please Contact Me before placing your order.

In order to extend the life of your print(s), matting and framing is highly recommended; however, of course, it is entirely up to you as the buyer. Framing your print will protect it from damage and also limit its exposure to airborne vectors that can cause deterioration (e.g., moisture, smoke, chemical irritants, and sunlight).

The options are limitless. If you are interested in custom presentation for your print(s), please Contact Me before placing your order and I will work with you to determine the best presentation for your home or office.

Yes, there is an additional cost for custom presentation and it varies based on the size of your print, the materials used, and the complexity of the presentation. There is also a variable fee for my consultation, which depends on the nature of the project. I will work with you to determine custom presentation options that work for your budget.

This really depends on your unique needs. It can be a rewarding process, but it does take time and effort. Some people enjoy the process of matting and framing prints themselves, while others prefer to have the entire process handled by someone else so that all they have to do is pick the spot where the art will be hung.

Great! All you have to do is Contact Me before placing your order and I will walk you through the entire process.

A certificate of authenticity (COA) is a signed document that establishes the legitimacy and provenance of an artwork. It contains details about the artwork for the collector’s reference.

In order to reduce my carbon footprint, I use digital COAs by Verisart. Verisart applies blockchain technology to combine transparency, anonymity and security to protect records of creation and ownership.

After you purchase one of my limited edition prints, you will receive an email from Verisart containing a transfer request. By accepting the transfer request, the COA related to your specific print will be transferred from me to you and the details of the transfer will be permanently bound to the artwork’s provenance data.

Isn’t technology cool?

Serious art collectors will require any work they purchase to include a certificate of authenticity in order to prove provenance should they choose to sell the work or donate it in the future.

You will have access to your digital Verisart certificate of authenticity (COA) forever. All you have to do is log into your Verisart account and view your certificates.

If you would like, you can choose to print your COA at any time and non-permanently adhere it to the back of the frame in which the print is located.

That’s one of the benefits of digital COAs—they can’t be lost. If you chose to print your digital COA and ended up losing it, simply log back into your Verisart account and re-print it if you’d like. The provenance data will remain unaffected.

Who better to ask about the proper care of photographs than the Library of Congress? They’ve put together a great article which you can view here.

To sum it up:

• Handle with clean hands or gloves
• Do not expose to high humidity, high temperature, or other environmental extremes
• Reduce exposure to direct or intense light
• Keep away from radiators and/or vents

Yes, absolutely! All of my prints are printed on archival-quality, acid-free paper.

Yes, if you are not 100% satisfied with your print, please Contact Me to arrange a return.

If are you not 100% satisfied with your print(s), I will refund 100% of your purchase minus shipping.

After a return is initiated, I must first receive and inspect the print to verify its authenticity and condition before processing the refund. Please allow 7-10 business days for shipping and inspection. If the print passes inspection, a refund will be issued to the original payment method. Depending on your financial institution, it may take an additional 5-7 business days for the funds to settle.
