Guided Setup Option
The Guided Setup Option is a practical service for collectors who have acquired a limited edition print and want to display it properly. It is not about decoration advice in a general sense — it is about the specific decisions that come with owning a gelatin silver photograph on fibre-based paper.
Most prints in this catalogue are unmounted and unframed when they leave the studio. That is deliberate: it keeps shipping safe and lets you choose the framing that suits your space. But it also means you have to think about glazing, mounting boards, and whether to use a mat at all. This option walks you through those choices with someone who knows the work.
The session covers three things. First, we look at the paper stock and its response to light — fibre-based prints need UV-protective glazing, and we will explain why standard glass is not enough. Second, we discuss mounting: hinging versus dry-mounting, and what each does to the print's longevity. Third, we talk about placement — not in a decorative sense, but in terms of light exposure, humidity, and how the image reads from different distances.
You will receive a written summary after the session, with recommendations specific to the print you own. There is no obligation to use a particular framer, and the advice is practical rather than prescriptive. If you already have a frame in mind, bring the measurements — we can work with what you have.
This option is available for any print in the current catalogue, including the industrial heritage series and the urban landscape studies. It is a one-time session, usually forty-five minutes, conducted over a video call or by phone if you prefer. The goal is straightforward: to help you hang the work with confidence, without guesswork.
To arrange a session, contact the studio directly. Please have your print's edition number and title ready — that helps us pull the correct technical notes before we talk.
