How to choose a print size

The most common question I get is a good one: what size should I actually order? The honest answer is that it depends less on the photograph and more on the wall — and on how much you want the piece to run the room. Here's how I think about the three sizes.

A quick rule of thumb: a piece usually looks best filling roughly two-thirds to three-quarters of the furniture it hangs above. When in doubt, size up — almost no one wishes their print were smaller.

You don't have to guess, either. Open any photograph on the gallery and tap "See it on the wall" — you can switch between all three sizes and watch the framed print resize, to scale, against a room for reference.

Made to last: paper, ink, and a signature

A photograph you love should outlast the wall it hangs on. Every print is made to order on museum-grade archival paper — the kind built to hold its color for decades without fading or yellowing, rather than the glossy stock that goes flat and brittle in a few years.

Because each one is printed only when it's ordered, nothing sits in a warehouse and nothing is mass-run. The Medium and Large sizes are signed and numbered, and the Large is a limited run — so the biggest pieces stay genuinely scarce.

Prints ship unframed and ready to frame, so you can choose a frame that fits your space. Want it on canvas or metal instead, or in a size that isn't listed? That's what special inquiries are for.

The collection: the Front Range to Aruba

Most of these photographs are made from a few hundred feet up. I'm based in Longmont, Colorado, and I fly the Front Range — the peaks, the small mountain towns, the reservoirs that turn to glass at dusk. What I'm really after is the few minutes of light that make a place look the way it feels.

When I travel, the drone comes with me. That's how the turquoise coastlines and limestone headlands of Aruba ended up hanging beside the Rockies in the same collection — two very different kinds of light, chased the same way.

Every image you see is available as a print. If one speaks to you but you're picturing it a little differently — a different crop, a different size, a licence to use it — the door's always open.
