While thats a bit of an over statement, its more a reference to the every day nature of sunsets and lifeguard towers in LA. To me, it's also more of a statement about becoming jaded with something that is pretty amazing, even if it happens often (but not always to this degree of course).
Every photo print on this site is a limited edition, 1 of 10. These works are only being sold because I believe them to have value, and by choosing not to broadly commoditize them, I won't undercut that worth. When all 10 are sold, prints of that image will never be brought back or re-issued in print form. Any and all of these images, however, may be featured in JW.S® digital products, or publications such as books and editorial features. In the instance an image has been licensed, featured, or has been printed in a different form, I will make an effort to annotate that on this page. (but cannot guarantee it will always be up-to-date)
While this helps each image retain its value, it also substantiates my view that photography is a continual journey forward. I don't want a small set of images, subject-matter, or styles to perpetually define me as a photographer. Maybe for a small time they will, but I hope to keep progressing, and evolving to something new.
Each image is also shot and edited as an individual piece– entirely different from any other on the site. I don’t use presets, or do bulk editing– in many instance, each image will have 1-15 unique edits before the final one is settled upon. Similarly, these images are also likely to also be updated as I continue to refine my editing techniques. If there's a significant change to a purchased image, I'd be happy to replace the previous edit at cost.
* It is important to note, that signatures will temporarily be withheld until I get my own printing up and running.
All paper prints use Epson Hot Press Bright Paper– an acid free, 100% cotton rag media with a bright smooth finish. This paper has an extremely-high color gamut and black density.
Each paper print size includes a ~1/4" white border to allow for easier matting . If you do not want this included, please follow up with an email within 1-2 days of purchase so I can accommodate.
‘Matte Acrylic’ prints are first printed on Fuji Crystal DP II paper, and then placed behind a 1/16” piece of matte acrylic glass that is lightweight, shatter proof, and reduces glare while offering UV protection. Then a silicone seal is used for protection before adhering to an aluminum dibond backing with aluminum rails– making it ready to hang. There are also options to add framing, in which case please send me an email with the exacts of what you’re looking for, and we can make it happen.
If you’re not interested in either of the paper or matte acrylic prints, or want a custom size or arrangement tailored for your space, I’d be more than happy to further discuss those things. I can’t promise I can/will accommodate all requests, but I'm always open to have a dialogue about it to find something that'll work best for what you're looking for– even if it means pointing you to a photographer better suited to your interests.
If you're interested in licensing any photos from this site, please reach out and let me know. At the moment, all of my photos are exclusively licensed through Stills.com– they handle the legal bits, payment.. everything of my photos.
Please allow up to ~10-15 days for your print to ship. While this might seem like a generous window of time, it's to account for the print shop's production time, and any potential travel, or crazy work schedules. I promise, I want to get you the print as quickly as possible, so if I can send the order to the print shop 5 mins after the order is place, I certainly will.
If for any reason you are not satisfied with your order, please contact me so we can sort out a solution. I will be accommodating as I can, but I can only accept returns / exchanges / refunds if there is a defect or some technical issue where I or the printers are at fault– not for a change of heart :/
