About our prints
We are very pleased to be able to offer some of Andy’s favourite photographs for sale.
All prints larger than 29cm x 21cm (A4) are printed to leave a 2cm margin on the left, top, right-hand sides and a 3cm margin at the bottom. Smaller prints have a 1cm margin on the left, top, right-hand sides and a 2cm margin at the bottom.
Just below the photograph on the left is printed the name of the photograph. For example ‘Severn Gold’. To the lower right, ‘Andy Gawthrope Photography’ is printed just below the photograph.
The dimentions of each print specify the size of the printed image excluding any margin and are rounded to the nearest whole centimetre thus the final print may vary by a few millimetres from the size specified.
All prints are made using our Canon Prograf Pro-1000 or Pro-2100 inkjet printers with genuine Canon ink here at Andy Gawthrope Photography. Once printed, each print is inspected for defects and left to dry for at least 6hrs. Prints are then carefully covered with soft tissue paper, rolled and placed inside a medium or large diameter cardboard postal tube to ensure they arrive in perfect condition.
For most prints we use one of the following papers by UK company, Fotospeed.

If you would like a framed print, we offer a custom-made framing service to meet your need whether that be for a domestic wall or a commercial location. We offer a wide selection of frames, mount boards, glass and fixings each of which can be selected individually to provide a custom and stunning picture. Due to the difficulty/cost of shipping framed prints so that they arrive in perfect condition, framed prints should be either collected or delivered in-person.
If you require a framed print, larger print, borderless print or have other special requirements please contact us as we are happy to help.
