Ordering Prints

Packaging

Your order will be suitably packaged to prevent damage during transit. Photographic print orders will either be wrapped in a solid carboard protective tube, or packaged flat.  Upon receipt of your fine art print, please take great care when opening the print, and ideally get the framer to open it - the surface can be easily scratched, or damaged by moisture, for example from sneezing - please tell the framer this.  

Prints which are bonded onto alumiunium ready to hand will be bubble wrapped, and packaged within protective cardboard.

If you have any questions relating to the packaging of orders, please contact us. 

Processing & Delivery

We endeavour to despatch all print orders within 14 working days of placing an order.  If for any reason there is a delay, we will contact you by email to advise. In practice the majority of our orders are despatched in less than 10 working days.

Delivery is included for all orders worldwide. Photographic Prints are despatched directly from the printers either by Royal Mail or courier, depending on size. Aluminium mounted prints will be despatched via courier.  You will be emailed to advise when your print has been shipped.

We take pride in our customer service both in the quality of our prints and in the efficiency with which we process orders.
