For collectors who prefer a more traditional presentation and wish to frame their prints on their own, many of my photographs are also available as archival paper prints. These prints offer a timeless, understated look while being designed for you to pair with a mat and frame of your own choice. These paper prints are a popular option for smaller spaces, gallery walls, secondary rooms and can be great in offices and studios. They're also great for collectors who enjoy custom framing. They provide a classic fine art feel while still showcasing the same carefully crafted imagery found in my metal and acrylic pieces.

Open Edition Paper Prints

Most archival paper prints are offered as open editions, making them a more accessible way to collect my work. While my acrylic, metal and framed signature pieces are typically produced in limited editions, paper prints focus on flexibility and traditional presentation. As such, most paper prints are offered as open editions, while acrylic, metal, and framed signature pieces are typically produced in limited editions.

This allows collectors to:

  • Choose their own frame and mat
  • Integrate the artwork into existing décor
  • Start or expand a collection at a smaller size
  • Create cohesive gallery walls
  • The emphasis is on simplicity, elegance and versatility.

Which paper should I choose?

Premium matte is the standard option and works well in most spaces thanks to its soft, non-reflective surface. Glossy and Hahnemühle Photo Rag papers are available by request for collectors with specific preferences.

Archival Paper Options

Paper prints are available in three carefully selected archival paper types that I chose specificaly for their color accuracy, longevity and presentation quality.

Premium Matte Paper (Standard Option)

Premium matte paper is the default choice for most paper prints. It offers a soft, non-reflective surface with smooth tonal transitions. These matte paper prints are excellent with color accuracy and provide a classic fine art appearance. Its non-glare surface makes it a versatile option for traditional framing.

Premium Glossy Paper (Available by Request)

Glossy paper offers a brighter, more reflective surface. Many prefer this paper type for increased contrast, deeper blacks and more vivid color saturation. This finish can work beautifully for certain images, especially those with bold colors or dramatic lighting. However, because of its reflective surface, glossy prints are often best paired with non-reflective or museum glass under more controlled lighting conditions. In my experience, many framers prefer a matte paper for framing, but many collectors prefer the contrast and vivid look of glossy, so glossy paper is available by request rather than as the standard option.

Hahnemühle Photo Rag (Premium Upgrade)

For collectors seeking a true museum-grade paper, select images are available on Hahnemühle Photo Rag for an additional cost. This is one of the most respected fine art papers in the world and is known for a soft, slightly textured cotton surface. Photo Rag has exceptional tonal depth with a beautiful, painterly character while being constructed specifically to be archival and museum-quality.

Are paper and canvas prints made by the artist?

Yes. Many paper prints up to 40 inches on the short side are produced personally in my studio. Rolled canvas prints up to the same size are also available by request and printed using the same archival process.

Printed by the Artist

Many of my paper prints are produced personally in my studio, allowing for careful attention to color, tone, and overall presentation. I print most paper photographs up to 40×60 inches in size using these professional archival materials and carefully calibrated equipment. From the paper and ink to the highest quality printer, this hands-on approach allows me to maintain consistent quality and ensure that each print matches the look and feel I intended when capturing the image.

For collectors interested in canvas, I also offer rolled canvas prints up to 44 inches on the short side by special request. These are printed in-house using the same careful process and can be stretched or framed locally to suit your space.

Designed for Custom Framing

Paper prints are shipped rolled and ready to be matted and custom framed. This gives you control over frame style, mat color and overall presentation for custom fitting the artwork in your space.

Do paper prints come framed?

No. Paper prints are shipped unframed so you can choose a mat and frame that best fits your space and style.

Additional Open Edition Options

In select cases, I also offer a few other open edition formats for certain images such as premium plaque mount prints and high-end archival canvas prints. I only use the highest quality canvas when doing this, as not all canvas is created equally. These options are typically offered for specific projects or requests and may not appear directly in the online shopping cart system here on my website. If you’re interested in one of these formats, feel free to reach out to discuss availability. As mentioned above, I also offer rolled canvas prints up to 44 inches on the short side for those that want to take the canvas to a local framer who can stretch it for them.
