Maine Photo Works

This shot from Jared Lank was a real dream to print on the Hahnemuhle Photo Rag. + www.jaredlank.com Created for an upcoming exhibition at the Portland Museum of Art featuring indigenous artists in Maine--details on that TBA. In the meantime, you absolutely can go to the PMA and see Jared's film Bay of Herons which is on view until November 1st!

We are so happy to be working with new client Lisa DiFranza! + www.lisadifranza.com Lisa came to us to help her in producing prints for Art in the Park and we quickly fell in love her with imaginative and fun painting style. Find Lisa and so many other amazing Maine artists at Art in the Park tomorrow! 9 am to 4 pm at Mill Creek Park in South Portland (rain or shine!).

Just over a month until Nina Fuller's ( + www.ninafullerphotography.com) next opening at the Portland Art Gallery! Nina and I have been absolutely giddy looking over her images in preparation. It's always such a pleasure to see how excited Nina gets about new work. 💜 ✨ 🐑 Photography is a magical thing, y'all. You can join in on the excitement at the opening: September 3rd at 5 pm at the Portland Art Gallery.

A recent reproduction for a client featuring his parents and grandparents in the reflection of his father's Buick hub cap. Not sure of the exact age of the original print, but the image itself made for a great feature print at 24 x 30" for this client's dining room. 👌

Two truly 💥strong💥 feature images for Heather Boody Wasklewicz's upcoming show 'Strange Roots'. 🙌 This was my second time printing a full body of work for Heather and it was so satisfying to see what a powerful group of images she was able to make (again!). 'Strange Roots' will be hanging at Edison Studio on Monhegan Island July 22nd thru August 9th. If you happen to be planning a trip to Monhegan or feel like making an excuse to, I highly recommend checking it out!

Some recent pieces out of the studio for new client Carey Gustanski (). I loved these images of Peggy's Cove in Nova Scotia! They really made for great finished pieces printed on canvas and gallery wrapped here in the studio. 👌

A recent print for new client John Zecca on the Hahnemuhle Photo Rag paper. You might recognize the gentleman in the photo as Bill Monroe--the famous bluegrass musician. John photographed Bill at his home while he was working sound on the documentary High Lonesome. We took the slide and scanned it in at a high resolution, did some retouching, and printed it on the Photo Rag paper. A very satisfying process working with a wonderful image.

Just wanted to pop on here and share about one of the new stocks I have available! This is the Photo Rag Satin paper from Hahnemuhle. A truly gorgeoussss paper for dreamy golden hour shots like this one by . The surface of the paper has a very subtle sheen along with a slight tooth in the cotton base which gives prints a truly unique character. I am continually amazed with the results on this paper for photographs. I'd highly recommend giving it a try for some of your favorite photographs!
