Questions

What galleries and collectors usually ask.

How accurate is the colour?

Artworks are photographed with a colour reference target and calibrated lighting, and delivered as colour-managed files, so reproductions match the work as closely as print and screen allow.

Can you photograph glazed, varnished or reflective works?

Yes. Lighting is set for each surface, including glass, varnish, polished metal and gemstones, to remove reflections without flattening texture.

Can you photograph works at a collector’s home or in storage?

Yes. We bring a portable set and work wherever the collection is, including private residences and free-zone storage, under your NDA if required.

Who holds the rights to photographs of artworks?

The artist keeps the copyright of the work itself. We license the photographs to the gallery, collector or artist for the uses agreed, such as press, catalogues, insurance and online sales.

How are files delivered?

Through a private online gallery, as high-resolution files for print and web versions for press and social media, named to your inventory references if you provide them.
