The Truth About Roses
The Truth About Roses
I had an image in my head for a while before this particular shoot offered an opportunity to finally make it happen. The result is different from what I imagined, but I liked it better (this is often what happens, in photography and life). But the message I first intended remained intact - I wanted to create an image that flips the romantic symbolism of roses on its head, and by doing so issuing a warning to the dangers of over-romanticizing love, as our culture is so wont to do.
Thank you to Megan Guinta for her excellent work in front of the camera!

Prints are developed and crafted to order by the photographer exclusively on top-quality Hahnemuhle Fine Art Pearl paper, 13" x 19". Each photograph is signed, numbered, and limited to 99 printings. Once 99 prints have been sold, that's it. They're done for good.
Matting optional - matted white by hand, using hinging technique with acid-free linen tape to a size of 18" x 24"
Framed modern black with acrylic glazing. (This is a very plain but serviceable framing. While I actually prefer glass, shipping risks prohibit this to be cost-effective so I recommend the buyer frames their photo locally. Still, this acrylic option is made available for those who want delivered a completely finished product.)
Large canvas print - 36" x 48" printed on wrapped canvas. The best option to make a big impression and a centerpiece in any room. Limited edition of 20 prints. Printing done by a off-site vendor, please allow up to 3 weeks for printing and shipping.
