How to frame your print

Our prints ship unframed in a protective tube on premium 240gsm lustre photo paper — satin finish, archival pigment inks. We recommend a 2.5cm white archival mat, acid-free backing, and UV-filtering glazing.

Your local framer can replicate the look in the wall preview above. Typical frame and matting cost is A$120–A$200 depending on size.

Up with the drone over Bondi after work, trying to catch that evening light on the wet sand. Just out looking for something, anything, to make an interesting shot. Then these two came strolling along, not a care in the world, leaving these really long shadows stretching out behind them. That’s what did it, really. The way they just walked on, oblivious, while their shadows just did their own thing on the vast, calm beach. Pretty simple, but sometimes those quiet moments, with the turquoise waves just gently breaking, are the best ones to capture.
