How we work

We believe aluminium prints are best suited to reproduce some of our photography. Please enquire directly if you are interested in different sizes and prints on different material.

Aluminium prints don’t need a frame and all costs are for prints without frames. All prints can be ordered with a frame which has to be priced-up individually, but please ask us for variations and we can send a mock-up of various sizes and colours.

All prints come with hanging rails attached to the back so can be wall-hung with two screws.

Brushed Aluminium

With brushed aluminium prints, the white pixels of the image are not printed, so the aluminium surface shines through in those areas, giving the piece an overall muted, metallic sheen and a textured surface. This high-quality print is waterproof and resilient as well as glare-free and can be hung in bathrooms, kitchens or even outdoors. The print is sprayed into the metal and bonded, resulting in fade-proof quality. For cleaning, we use water and a cloth.

Full Aluminium

For a matt, smooth finish, high-quality photo prints are mounted on top of an aluminium slab. This option works well if your chosen image has a lot of white in it or if you prefer a more classic look. Full aluminium prints can be cleaned with a cloth, but only gently. Print quality lasts for many decades.
