Purchase Prints

The photos displayed in this website can be purchased in print or digital format. Some of them are available in limited printed series only while some of them are not for sale at all.

If you are interested in buying some of my photos please click here to contact me and send me a note asking for a price and the intended usage.

Printing is achieved using photographic chemicals and not through the use of inkjet printers. High quality Fuji or Kodak photo paper is used and the printing is done in a Pro Lab in order to ensure the maximum quality and durability available.

Non-Commercial Use

You may download material from this web site for your personal, non-commercial use only. This includes printing one copy of each photograph on this website for personal use. School projects, household decorations, and gifts are fine.

If you have a personal website, a blog, or a non-commercial web service, you may use my photos but only if you provide a hyperlinked credit on every page on which my photographs appear. An example:

An optional step of sending me an email with the url of your site is appreciated. I like to know who uses my work and for what purposes.

If you’re a non-profit organization you will have to ask for permission prior to republish any content from this site. It’s highly probable that I’ll give you consent to use my photos, but I have to know in advance what type of organization you are.
