reflected light zine // volume two (2024)
For the past twelve years, I’ve offered annual books, box sets, and most recently, print portfolios. Last year saw the addition of a well-received printed zine. A zine is a soft-bound magazine-style publication less formal than a book, allowing for a greater sense of experimentation. The final printed size of my zine is (wait for it…) 8 x 10 inches. Big surprise, I’m sure.
Included in volume two of my zine is my favorite work from 2024, spanning my two winter trips, my spring trip, and my fall trip. Each photo is accompanied by text, along with information about image.
The zine is produced on 100% recycled uncoated paper stock, and should be similar length to volume one which was 32 pages in length. The final number of copies based primarily on the number of preorders (Last year was an edition of 350). After the fulfillment of all preorders, only a limited number of copies will be available, and I don’t know if it will be economical for a second print run since the cost is heavily based on quantity.
This year’s volume will take design cues from last year’s, but with a variety of tweaks to improve upon it. The photo on this page is a mock-up of the design. The final design will be submitted to the printer and produced during the month of November. Also shown is the print that’s included with the premium version of this zine.
Note: If you’re interested in both my 2024 print portfolio AND the zine,
special bundle pricing is available when ordering my 2024 print portfolio.
UPDATE: (December 9, 2024) I’ve started shipping zines from the first print run, and although the first print run has sold through the entire edition I will be doing a second print run so I have opened orders once again. I’ll be ordering a second round of the zines in the next week or so, so if you order now I may still be able to deliver the zine for the holidays.
Standard and Premium Edition
The zine is available as both the standard edition, and the premium edition. Both copies will be signed, and the difference is that the premium edition includes a print of “Cactus and Sandstone” on Hahnemühle Photo Rag Baryta at the same specs as the prints offered in my print portfolios. This print will be signed on the back with pencil, and is not otherwise included in my 2024 print portfolio. The paper measures 8” x 10” and the image itself is 7.2” x 9.2”. I personally produce each print on my Epson P7000 using archival pigment ink.
Now Shipping
I have begun shipping zines, and orders placed now will be shipped within several days of placing the order.
International Customers
For international customers, my shipping price of ($16) is a couple dollars less than my actual shipping expense to most countries, and for certain countries, I pay between $22 and $35 for the actual shipping price. I realize $16 is a sizable amount in relation to the price of the zine, but please realize I’m taking a loss on the shipping to help make it more reasonable for you. Ordering the zine bundled with a print portfolio helps a bit with the shipping cost.
