Numbering Your Fine Art Print Editions

by

I’ve never really featured print sales as a part of my business model up to this point in my career. For a long time, the type of photography I was doing editorially and commercially just didn’t lend itself to print sales. The kind of image I might sell to a large company like Nike or Red Bull was great for a eye-catching advert, but rarely was it something most people would hang on their wall for an extended period of time.

Upcoming Adventure With A Ton Of Gear To Test

by

Most of you will probably have figured out by now that I enjoy testing out new photography gear and sharing my experiences. One thing that I really wanted to do when I started Shutter Muse was to approach gear reviews in a different way to a lot of other people. I want to make sure that when I’m testing things, I’m out shooting photos in real world situations, not just in or around a studio.
