About Us

I was born in Darley Dale in 1968 and lived in Stoney Middleton untill moving to Sheffield to complete an Engineering Physics Degree. Jobs in Research, Quality Assurence, Heavy Industry, Piano Restoration, Milk Delivery, Outdoor Equipment retail, GIS computerised mapping followed before my current Pre-Press job with a Sheffield Printing Company.

A lifelong interest in photography along with walking and climbing has led me to take more and more landscape shots around the Peak District area in which I live, more recently with an SLR film camera and Scanner and for the last 2 years more and more with a Digital SLR camera.

Encouraged by my wife Laura (also the accountant!) we have begun to print some of these as cards and larger mounted and framed prints and sell these via several local shops and via stalls in craft tents at events around Derbyshire and South Yorkshire. It has all gone from there with a few more good (and a lot of bad) shots since.

Everything you see here is made by us. Andy takes most pictures,Laura the rest.We process them and design, print and construct the cards,bookmarks,big mounted pictures,we only buy in the frames,Laura cleans the frame glass more often as Andy is usually ready to fling them after about 30 minutes! We only so far sub contract out the canvasses.

The Larger mounted and framed prints and canvasses are Giclee quality, which means they are made with longlife Pigment ink on a large format Ink Jet printer onto heavyweight fine art paper, and, if treated with reasonable care (would you hang an oil painting in direct sunlight?) will last for many years without fading.
