Materials That Hold Your Story

“Because the paper is the first place your story learns to breathe.”

  • Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308 Photo Rag has a quiet, velvety presence — a matte surface that holds detail with softness and truth. It lets the artwork breathe without distraction.

    Technically, it’s a 100% cotton, 308gsm, smooth matte paper with a slightly open surface that absorbs pigment beautifully. Its high D‑Max gives blacks surprising depth for a matte stock, while colours settle into the fibres with a natural, tactile richness.

    Choose Photo Rag when your story lives in nuance — portraits, illustrations, and photographs that rely on subtle tone, softness, and emotional clarity.

  • Canson Baryta Prestige II Baryta Prestige II carries the quiet electricity of a darkroom print — a luminous, confident gloss that catches light the way memory catches breath. It feels both modern and timeless, holding your image with a cinematic presence.

    Technically, it’s a 340gsm alpha‑cellulose and cotton blend with a true baryta (barium sulphate) coating, echoing traditional fibre‑based silver‑gelatin papers. This gives it an exceptional D‑Max, crisp micro‑contrast, and a refined gloss that deepens blacks and lets highlights glow without harsh shine.

    Choose Baryta Prestige II when your work needs presence — portraits with gravity, landscapes with atmosphere, photographs meant to be seen, not just viewed.

  • Hahnemühle Bamboo Bamboo brings a natural warmth — a calm, grounded surface that gives artwork a gentle, organic presence. Its smooth matte texture softens tones just enough to feel human and intimate.

    Technically, it’s a 290gsm paper made from 90% bamboo fibres and 10% cotton, offering a sustainable choice with full archival quality. Colours take on a warm, honest character, while shadows roll off softly across the slightly fibrous surface.

    Choose Bamboo for work rooted in nature, warmth, or emotional subtlety — prints that feel lived‑in, quiet, and deeply connected to the earth.

Frequently Printing Asked Questions

  • Pigment inks contain tiny solid particles suspended in liquid; dye inks dissolve completely. Pigment inks sit on the paper surface, reducing smudging and water damage. Dye inks are cheaper but less durable. Modern pigment inks now match dye inks in colour vibrancy.

  • Pigment inks offer smoother tonal gradations, making them ideal for black‑and‑white prints.

  • Dye inks typically fade within 50 years. Pigment inks can last 200+ years when printed on suitable papers and stored correctly.

  • We check all files before printing and will notify you if quality may be affected. As a guide: higher print sizes require higher resolution. For example, a 20MB file at 400 dpi prints excellently at A5, very well at 10×8" (300 dpi), and well at 16×12" (200 dpi).

  • Pricing includes one‑to‑one time reviewing your files on a colour‑calibrated monitor, plus help with colour management, borders, cropping, and minor edits.
