Turning Photographs Into Heirlooms

Whether captured during a commissioned session or a rare TFP collaboration, your images deserve to be preserved and displayed beautifully. My commissioned work is priced using an hourly rate combined with project-specific considerations, and printed artwork may be added to any session.

Every project — whether a TFP collaboration or a paid session — is crafted with precision and attention to detail from capture to final delivery. Each photograph is carefully edited for balance, color, and composition, and personally reviewed before printing to ensure accuracy, sharpness, and tonal depth. Paid session work is prepared at a high-resolution level suitable for professional printing, while TFP images are typically optimized in a 2048-pixel, web-friendly format — but sometimes those digital photographs deserve to live beyond the screen. That’s where high-resolution prints, albums, and wall art come in.

Prints, albums, and wall art are available as optional add-ons for both TFP collaborations and paid sessions. They are not included with any project by default but can be purchased separately by those who wish to hold their memories in hand or display them proudly on a wall.

I offer a variety of professional, high-resolution printing options — from gallery-quality fine art papers to more budget-friendly prints. Whether you’re investing in heirloom wall art or simply want something beautiful for your home, there’s an option for every vision and budget.

Fine Art Prints

For those who want the highest quality, I can create prints on archival papers designed to last for decades. Options include:

• Matte & Cotton Rag Papers — soft, painterly finishes.

• Glossy & Luster Papers — crisp, vibrant, and bold.

• Everyday Prints — affordable, quality photo paper perfect for casual sharing and gifts.

Sometimes simple is perfect. Standard photo prints or budget-friendly poster-style enlargements are available if you’d like something casual and easy to share.

For collectors and clients who want museum-level quality, I use archival fine art papers with rich texture, deep tonal range, and exceptional longevity. Options include:

• Giclée Prints on Cotton Rag Paper – soft texture, matte finish, archival quality (up to 100+ years).
• Hahnemühle Fine Art Papers – velvet matte, textured watercolor, and smooth matte surfaces.

• Metal & Acrylic Prints – bold, luminous finishes for a modern feel.

Canvas Prints

Canvas adds depth and texture, available in gallery wraps or float frames. Gallery-wrapped, ready to hang wall pieces.

Albums & Books

There’s something timeless about flipping through pages:

• Hardcover Albums — beautifully bound with custom layouts.

• Photo Books — lighter and more affordable, but still a meaningful way to preserve memories.

Wall Art & Framing

If you’d like your images as display pieces:

• Canvas Wraps — ready-to-hang gallery style.

• Metal Prints — sleek, modern, and bold.

• Framed Prints — classic presentation, with frame options we can select together.

Printing Companies I Trust

When you choose heirlooms, I work with labs that produce professional-grade results:

• White House Custom Colour (WHCC) — fine art papers, albums, wall art.

• Mixam — photo books with excellent print quality.

• Mpix — high-quality prints and wall art with fast turnaround.

• Vistaprint — simple and budget-friendly options.

Every print order is fully customizable, so we’ll work together to create the right paper, size, and finish for your vision and budget.
