  • DIGITAL FILES:

    No, I do not offer digital files.

    AI:

    There is all this talk about AI, do you use this in your work?

    All of my work is from my own photography in the field or painted in my studio. All of my work is authentic and not AI Generated. One of my photographic goals is to leave an accurate record of the world around us.

    I might remove a branch or a vehicle to help with the overall appearance, but it is all original and not a false image. I use Lightroom, Photoshop, and Topaz to help with processing. The processing edits I do are the same edits I would have done in a dark room in film days. 

  • Do I handle shipping?

    Yes, with some exceptions. Shipping fee is built in for a print without a frame.

    When you purchase an art piece, you are asked for your address. Please fill it in precisely. I use local businesses to do all of my shipping and framing.

    Typically, images will be ready to be shipped via UPS within five days of placing your order, weekends excluded.  

    Exceptions: larger pieces, canvas, metal, and oil paintings - the shipping price will be added on to the listed cost.

    CAN YOU HELP ME SELECT THE CORRECT IMAGE AND LOCATION IN MY HOME?

    Coming Soon. Yes, I am in the process of working out the details of this service. It would be offered to Salt Lake County residents.

I would require 48 hours of notice to reschedule locally, and a month if travel is involved.
