Frequently Asked Questions
FAQS
What is included in the Between Signals & Transmissions Collection?
The collection features a curated selection of limited-edition releases inspired by Between Signals and Transmissions: Your Story Matters. These include the Photobook Edition (limited to 50 copies) and the Archive Collector Box Set (limited to 100 copies), together with future releases that form part of the collection.
The Story Behind The Work
Over the years, I have learned that every photograph begins long before the shutter is pressed. It is a negotiation with yourself, with the craft, and with the responsibility of witnessing another person's story. It asks you to keep learning, to unlearn what no longer serves you, and to approach every encounter with honesty, humility, and care.
"I have found that the most meaningful conversations often happen just before, and just after, a photograph is made."
Are the editions limited?
Yes. Every release within the Between Signals & Transmissions Collection is produced as a limited edition. Each edition has its own production quantity, with the Photobook Edition limited to 50 copies and the Archive Collector Box Set limited to 100 copies. Once an edition is sold out, it will not be reproduced.
When will I receive my order?
Each order is carefully prepared before dispatch. Please allow up to four weeks for production, signing (where applicable), quality checks and packaging. We ship throughout South Africa and internationally, with shipping costs calculated at checkout.
