Faq’s
I’m based in Tauranga, in the beautiful Bay of Plenty, New Zealand – just across the harbour from Mount Maunganui. An awesome beach town with great walks and amazing views. It’s the perfect place to call home.
I don’t have a gallery at the moment, but it’s definitely on my future goals list! 😊
I personally edit all the images in-studio, then they’re sent to one of the most trusted photographic imaging houses in New Zealand, with over 51 years of experience. Once printed, they come back to me for a final quality check, signed, and packaged, ready to be sent your way.
All artwork is printed on Ilford 310gsm Smooth Cotton Rag paper. It’s a matte, 100% cotton rag stock made for fine art printing, and it brings out every detail in the images I create.
The print size refers to the finished size of the print, which includes the image along with a 3” white border.
Print Size
Mini: 330 mm x 420 mm (13” x 16.5”)
Small: 457 mm x 610 mm (18” x 24”)
Medium: 660 mm x 914 mm (26” x 36”)
Large: 914mm x 1295 mm (36” x 51”)
Extra Large: 1066 mm x 1524 mm (42” x 60”)
NOTE: Extra Large size is not available for all prints. See individual listings for available sizes.
All prints come with a 3″ white border. I love how it frames the image, adding a sense of simplicity and balance that really enhances the visual experience. Plus, it gives you some flexibility when it comes to framing your favourite artwork.
Yes, all prints are limited edition. This means only a set number of copies are made for each print in my online store, no matter the size.
Yes, all prints come personally signed by me.
I don’t sell digital copies. All my work is only available as physical prints to preserve the quality and true nature of the artwork.
I’m not offering custom sizes or commissioned work at the moment, but it may be something I look at adding in the future.
Choosing the best print size for your wall depends on a few factors such as the size of your space, where you want to display it, and how much impact you want the artwork to have. A good rule of thumb is to go for a print that’s about 2/3 the size of the wall or space where it’ll hang.
I personally love big prints that create a statement.
If you have a really large wall, you could consider hanging two or three prints side-by-side to fill a really large wall.
Right now, I offer prints only, but I’m working on adding framing options in the near future.
When framing your prints, I recommend using non-reflective, artglass with UV protection to keep them looking their best. Your framer will be able to guide you on the best options.
I highly recommend

As tempting as it may be to open it right away, I recommend waiting until you’re ready to frame it. If you’re not framing it yourself, keep the print inside the packaging until you take it to a professional framer. This will help reduce the risk of any damage or marks, keeping your print in perfect condition.

At the moment, in-person collection isn’t an option, as I don’t currently have a gallery for pick-up.
