A waterfall in Yellowstone National Park, worked in black and white so the falling water reads as a single continuous shape against the dark canyon

Yellowstone National Park

Flow State

I stood above the Upper Falls of the Yellowstone River as the river thundered through the canyon at full flow. Light filtered through the lodgepole pines, catching portions of the water and leaving others in deep shadow. Farther downstream, the arched bridge added a quiet human element to an otherwise wild scene.

I processed the photograph in black and white to strip away the distractions of color and emphasize the contrast between the rushing river, the dark forest, and the textured rock of the canyon. To me, it felt like a quintessential piece of Americana—a place where our infrastructure exists alongside something that remains stubbornly untamed.

Limited Edition Print

Available as a limited edition fine art print, produced on demand in four finishes. Full sizing and materials are on the prints page.

Editions & certificates

Each image is released as a limited edition of 50 — that's 50 pieces total, across every size and every finish combined, not 50 of each. When an edition closes, that image is retired and never offered as a print again. A few signature images are released in smaller editions.

Outside that count, I keep one Artist's Proof of each image for myself. It's occasionally available by private request, at a premium.

Every piece is numbered and comes with a matching signed and numbered Certificate of Authenticity. Paper prints are signed by hand before they ship; the face-mounted pieces travel straight from the lab to you, so the certificate carries the signature rather than the panel.

As an edition sells down, the price steps up. The earliest pieces of an edition carry the lowest price.

Which finish should I choose?

Lumachrome Face-mounted to TruLife acrylic

The deepest, most luminous finish I offer. It's especially suited to backlit scenes, where the glow comes about as close to the real light as a print can get. Arrives ready to hang.

Best for: Deep color, dramatic light, anything you want to stop people in their tracks.

Chromaluxe Dye-sublimation on aluminum

The most durable finish, with color that reaches beyond what standard prints can show, so bright scenes, water, and big skies come off the panel. Arrives ready to hang.

Best for: Bright scenes, water, snow, big skies. Also the most durable option.

Supralume High-gloss canvas on aluminum composite

Canvas texture with the fine detail and deep blacks of a gloss print. Arrives ready to hang.

Best for: Texture and detail — rock, bark, forest, anything intricate.

Fine Art Paper Canson Infinity Rag Photographique, 310 gsm cotton

100% cotton rag, hand-signed, and shipped unframed for your own framer.

Best for: Quieter work, black and white, and anyone with a framer they trust.
