What you are buying
Every print is made by hand in a darkroom, one sheet at a time. Silver gelatin on fiber-based paper, 8×10 inches, glossy, with the image at 6×9 (full 35mm frame, printed uncropped). Each is signed and numbered in pen on the back including process notes.Each photograph in this particular release is an edition of three. The three come from the same negative but not from a machine. Small differences in tone, density and surface between them are how the process works.
Fiber paper dries with a slight curl. This is normal and settles under even weight over a few weeks.
Prints are sent unmounted and unmatted.
Handling and framing
Handle the print by its edges. If you frame it, archival mat board keeps the glass off the surface, which is what matters most.Making and dispatch
Prints are posted within a week of your order.Each print goes out flat between mat boards, packed in a box. You will get a tracking number when it ships.
Shipping
As of now, orders ship from North Carolina, USA. Shipping is $10 within the United States, charged at checkout.Delivery times belong to the carrier.
Ordering from outside the United States
Checkout currently offers shipping within the United States only.If you are somewhere else, email me at Gabemorivera@gmail.com with the print you want and the city and country it would travel to. I will work out what the postage actually costs and write back, usually within a day or two, and set the order up from there.
I would rather do it this way than guess. The cost of sending one flat print varies a great deal between countries, and a single worldwide rate would overcharge some buyers to cover others.
Customs duties and import taxes are set by your country, not by me. They are not included in the price or in the postage, and are yours to pay when the parcel arrives.
If it arrives damaged, or does not arrive
Photograph the parcel and the print before unpacking any further, and write to me within 14 days. If another print from the edition is available I will replace it. If not, I will refund you in full.If tracking stops moving, or the parcel has not reached you three weeks after it shipped, write to me. I will open a claim with the carrier. If the print cannot be found I will replace it from the edition, or refund you in full.
If a parcel comes back to me because the address was wrong or nobody collected it, I will send it out again once the postage is covered.
Returns
If a print is not what you hoped for, write to me within 14 days of its arrival and send it back in the condition and packaging it came in. I will refund the price of the print once it reaches me undamaged. Return postage is yours unless the print arrived damaged or I sent the wrong one.Prints that have been mounted, framed, trimmed or written on cannot be returned.
Payment
Prices are in US dollars. Payment is handled by Stripe for safe and secure transactions, and I never see your card details. Sales tax is added at checkout where I am required to collect it.Your email address is used for your order and nothing else. I will not add you to the Log or pass your details to anyone.
