the tempestuous heavens
Mono Lake, California
your handcrafted limited edition print
about this limited edition photograph:
There’s a fine line between getting a shot of the perfect storm, and getting very wet while taking photos – luckily, I just about managed to stay on the right side of it for this shot!
Mono Lake, in California, is a favourite place of mine to photograph at any time of year. The unearthly ‘Tufa’ that project up from the water’s edge add an ethereal feel to the entire scene, and it was these I’d intended to shoot.
On arrival, however, the weather seemed to have other plans. A huge storm was heading down from the Sierra Nevada mountain range in a way that seemed to be a warning to photographers to stay away. Nonetheless, I trekked down to the water’s edge and set up. With a long exposure, I figured the cloud formation would add something to the rocks in the scene below.

framing options
timeless, classic
Our solid wood traditional frames are handmade in London, by some of the best craftsmen in the world. With a range of certified sustainable woods and mount boards to match every style, along with ultra-clear museum glazing options, your framed limited edition print will be a true showpiece in any space.
Your solid wood frame arrives ready to hang with traditional rear fixings. For larger pieces, these are reinforced for added strength where required.
contemporary, fresh
For the ultimate in clean, crisp looks, with the illusion of your print floating from the wall, our gallery acrylic frames are the perfect addition to your contemporary space. Using the highest quality aluminium base and graded UV-resistant acrylic, your face-mounted print will become a bold and vivid addition to your room.
Your gallery acrylic frame features a hidden “floating” subframe for easy wall fixing either directly to each attachment or with reinforced picture wire.
modern, elegant
The perfect combination of our vivid gallery acrylic prints, built inside a traditional wooden structure, our floating tray frames deliver a modern look with an elegant finish to wow in any setting. With a subtle space between the face-mounted print edge and handcrafted wooden frame, your image appears to float in place, while surrounded by natural wood tones.
Your floating tray frame houses a special sunken structure behind the print, allowing for direct-to-wall mounting from two attachment points.
vibrant, bold
If absolute flexibility is what you’re looking for, our rolled limited edition fine art prints are the perfect option. We’re certain we can frame your artwork better than anyone else, but we get it – sometimes you just want the freedom to do your own thing. Printed in ultra-high gallery definition, your print is ready to be displayed with your own unique style.
Your limited edition print is delivered in a safely padded, secure art tube to ensure it arrives with you just as perfect as it when it left our studio.
it’s the details that matter
We know that how your image is displayed is just as important as what it represents and after years of working with framers from all around the world, we found the best people in the industry.
We don’t mass-produce your fine art print using automated computer programs – we still make our solid wood frames by hand, with the same equipment and techniques that have been used for the past century.
Our framers are perfectionists, who take pride in what they create.
Tray Frame Wood Selections
Your custom-made floating tray frame comes in a selection of painted or stained wood finishes, from classic black and white, through to walnut, oak, cherry and ash.
We’ll work with you to find the perfect combination for your space.
Traditional Frame Wood Selections
For our traditional solid wood framing options, we offer a range of standard wood finishes, along with custom-built dimensions to fit your exact needs.
Our base frames are formed from sustainable Oak or Ash, and can be finished in your choice of gallery-grade wood stain to perfectly suit your style.
Mount Styles
All our traditional framed prints feature premium grade, FSC certified, conservation mountboard, designed to complement your choice of print and frame.
We offer single and double mount apertures in a choice of soft white or ebony black to match your own unique setting.

taking care of our planet
Paul has spent his life exploring the planet to bring together a collection of moments that will be with you forever.
But throughout those journeys, he’s also one of the few people to have seen first-hand the levels of dramatic change that our planet is undergoing, and the devastating effects that short-term thinking has on our only home.
We want to share those incredible moments with you, in the most responsible way possible, but while we can’t fix the planet’s problems on our own, we know we can do our bit to help…
– Our travels are carbon offset with initiatives around the world.
– Our print deliveries are shipped with Carbon Neutral couriers who ensure they treat our planet well.
– Our frames are made from FSC and PEFC certified wood, found in ethically managed, sustainable forests.
– Our mount boards are from traceable, certified, FSC sources, sent to us locally to our studio.
– Our acrylic gallery prints are mounted on recycled aluminium subframes.
– Our rolled prints are always sent in recycled, and recyclable, shipping tubes.
Plus, with every print purchase, we plant trees in your name to help build new woodland areas in partnership with Creating Tomorrow’s Forests.
Of course, the biggest way to help our planet stay healthy is to simply use less. Not only are our fine art prints guaranteed for a lifetime, they’re engineered to last that long from the very beginning.
We want you to enjoy your print forever, and that’s why we’ve built it to last.
this is not about putting a picture on your wall
We live in a world where billions of photographs are taken every day, never to be seen again.
A print makes an image come to life.
