Printing & Framing

Printing

Curated paper selection

We offer a variety of premium fine art papers, including Hahnemühle Baryta, Canson Baryta Prestige, Ilford Smooth Cotton Rag, and Ilford Smooth Pearl. Each paper is thoughtfully selected to complement the colors and mood of the photograph, ensuring the final print authentically reflects the essence of the image.

Print dimensions & image area

Our standard print sizes are A2, A3, and A4, which denote the full paper dimensions. The actual printed image occupies approximately 75% - 85% of the paper size, providing a natural border ideal for framing.

If you're interested in custom sizes beyond those listed (such as A1, A0) or prefer canvas or acrylic prints, please reach out via our Contact page.

Panorama printing

Panorama sizes may vary slightly between prints. As a guide, a 2:1 ratio print measures approximately 860mm x 430mm, while a 3:1 ratio print is around 1200mm x 430mm.

Printing process & archival quality

Prints up to A2 size are produced using the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1000, a 12-color inkjet printer renowned for its expansive color gamut and exceptional detail. This process ensures vibrant, long-lasting prints that capture the depth and nuance of each scene.

Artist's signature

Every print is personally hand-signed by Nirmal Perera, adding a unique touch of authenticity and connection to the artwork.

Framing

Please note: Framed prints can only be shipped within New Zealand. Please allow an extra 3-5 days for framing.

Handmade pine frames

Every frame is handmade from pine. Painted finishes use pH-neutral colours, so the frame remains archival-safe alongside the print.

Colour options

There are three colour options:

  • Titanium white
  • Carbon black
  • Natural pine

Presentation

The print is installed between a backing board and a mat window, so the image sits cleanly within the frame without touching the glass.

Glass

Each framed print is finished with high-quality 20% non-reflective UV glass, helping protect the work while keeping reflections to a minimum.

Ready to hang

D-rings and hanging string are provided so the framed print is ready to hang.
