Frequently Asked Questions

What types of art can you shoot?

Paintings (gloss and glare can usually be filtered out) , sculpture (in-situ and on seamless), installations and install shots. Please note that works behind glass and some works that include metallics may require multiple shots and retouching which can increase costs.

What do I need to do to prepare for a shoot on-site?

Provide as much room as possible on either side of the work for the lights. Most small works can be photographed in sealed frames without removing them. A 54" white or black scrim as a seamless backdrop can be provided for sculptures.

What kinds of images do I receive:

Three folders of files are provided: Full size 50 Megapixel TIFF files in the full AdobeRGB 1998 color space around 8688 x 5792 pixels or around 19" x 29" at 300dpi ). Full sized high quality JPEG files (around 10 megs). Scaled down JPEGs at 1800 pixels for email and websites. The RAW and Photoshop files can also be delivered. Images of almost any size and format can be exported.

When do I receive the images?

You receive your images at the end of the shoot or via secure weblink or by transfer to a portable drive. If additional retouching work is needed, images can be sent via download link within three business days.
