theres something really soothing about the way you talk during this video. maybe its because i really like how much thought and care you put into the presentation and delivery of your art.
Really great information there. Thanks. Certainly shows that a print isn't just hitting the print button, but a work of art in itself that requires time and thought.
That's a lot of work for one print . Photographers really have to jump through hoops now to sell prints . Nice to see someone still take pride in their work and deliver a premium product .
I didn't know that you could get a personalized profile from the manufacturer, that was a very valuable information to me, thanks ! I loved how your video was structured and clear.
I know I've said this before but I am totally inspired by your videos! I'm a hobbyist who dreams of being more. When I watch your videos I'm torn between my inadequacy and my desire to be better. Thank you for the great content!
Was kind of "ho-hum" about watching this video because I do enjoy your on location videos so much. However, I must say that this was one of the most enjoyable of your videos I have watched (have watched pretty much all of them). Attention to detail, caring for your customer and passion are a heady and powerful mix. Wishing you every success.
Hi. I bought one of your prints about a year ago now. Pride of place on one of my walls. I did not appreciate until now how much work went into it. Which now makes it all the more special. So a big thank you to you, for the print and your inspiration.
The best explanation on printing I've found. Forwarded this to a friend who fell in love with your photos too. Not only calibrating the monitor but using the icc profile to make sure the paper matches your edit is that tricky bit that only makes sense once you think about it. Closest analog is treating a room to remove sound reflections so you can edit music without the room contributing its character.
This video prompted me to purchase a few prints. We are decorating our living spaces. That I enjoy all of these videos, can watch the process of capturing the images I love, get comments on the process of developing and printing, know that tons of care goes into the prints... makes me compelled to buy prints of those images that I truly love. Great video. Thank you for showing how much care you take in sharing your work.
My prints arrived safely in Austin right during the mail bomb scare. I’m taking them to the gallery on Monday to decide how they will hang on the wall. I’m so excited! The prints look great!
Ye you made it look luxurious by showing the whole process, I like the story behind the photo thats included, it makes you to look at the picture again and it brings up different feelings... Lovely
Absolutely smashing video. As someone who never really wanted to sell my work but is now rethinking that notion, it really helps to see how you have chosen to do so. Thank you for continuing to provide inspirational and valuable content.
Thanks, Tom, wonderful video! I learned a great deal and it encourages me to do more printing, though I do quite a bit already. I don't sell my work, but I do give prints to people who admire my work and I think they really value it. What I like about this video is that you show all the steps and I think many people don't realize that a lot of work goes into getting a good print. Thanks again. Cheers, Bob
Great presentation and info Thomas - I personally find that red is the most challenging colour to print accurately. Agree with another viewer who said smaller proofs are the best way to see how the colour is traveling. Your back story for each image is a nice touch.
I'm just starting my journey into professional photography and your tips and videos are priceless resources of knowledge. Thank you for giving us this channel.
Thank you for your professional presentation. I had hoped to discover some photoshop settings tips for making great prints. I loved seeing how beautifully you package your art. Thank you.
Thanks a few years later for this helpful video. Your thoughts about test prints reminded me of the hours I spent in the darkroom making small changes to dodging and burning a print.
Having watched you channel (subscribed) for some months, it's quite evident the passion, care, diligence, and attention you invest in your creative works. This video displays your unique approach. Were that more of us captured and replicated this comprehensive approach in the areas of our creative works; indeed, maybe other aspects of life. Thank you for sharing your gift! Looking forward to seeing more!
I have had a look at your site (again). The images are great, and seeing in this video, the care you take to print, prepare and ship them, I think your prices are totally fine. Thanks for showing us in all honesty what you are doing, down to the smallest detail.
UA-cam pointed me in the direction of your video (I had read about your work as a photographer previously) after spotting that I’d been browsing other videos on printers and printing. After years of struggling, and having moved from troublesome Epson to a Canon Pro, using a calibrated monitor I finally got to where images on screen came out pretty much like the screen except for some extra brightening. Yet I still found your video very useful, as well as interesting, particularly the paper manufacturers’ printer profiling service (hadn’t heard of that) and the presentation pre sale. So, thank you!
A great vlog for me Thomas, thanks. As someone navigating this path (on a much smaller scale and barely there demand) it was interesting to see you have a similar view...I think the idea of direct communication with the customer through the embossed cards and letters is a key part of the sale. Cheers!
Just bought my first dedicated photo printer, Canon Pixma Pro 100, so this video was very helpful. Surprisingly noticeable difference between the stock paper color profile and the unique profile, will definitely be following your advice as a way to print the best quality images. Thanks for your help!
Great Video Thomas, and it shows you really care about the quality of prints, it inspires me to take printing more seriously and adding those little elements shows you care and you got some great ideas to elevate the experience for the person buying the print. also they will be looking at the print everyday of their lives so it has to be perfect and they must have to love it to hang it on their wall, they probably should love it more than you do, because they are purchasing it. Cheers and thanks for sharing.
What a great inspirational video, thx Thomas! You are doing lots of effort to your prints, your customers can expect great quality, not only from its arts.
Hi Tom, another very calm, clear straightforward video, I just don't know how you do it!, maybe you could do another one outlining the logistical and strategic process , how you decide what to do and how you organise the time and resources to film and edit this sort of output?. The finished product seems so neat and effortless but I'm sure it isn't! I can't help wondering just how long it must take!. Well done anyway, Cheers, Richard.
THIS IS AWESOME information.. Are you also printing the larger prints that you have on your site; 60 x20, 23x9?? a third party printer?? Where do you get your supplies from for packaging?? ( box for flat prints, tubes, etc) Many many thanks!!
Isn't it funny, photography has come such a very long way what with digital and how we view them, but still for some reason the print contains the the originality and honesty unlike any other view. Thank you Thomas.
Thanks for the video Thomas, you can see how much hard work, love and care goes into your prints, very impressive set up. Your customers are definitely getting their moneys worth.
Wonderful and informative videos Thomas. You put so much work and care went into not only the actual shooting of the image, but the packaging and sending of them. The little information card and thank you card are indeed very nice touches and special to all who have them.
Incredible work, Thomas. Keep going, loving your craft, and inspiring all of us. You just taught me so many things that I didn't know I didn't know. It's really wonderful to see someone take so much time and pride in their work, and seeing the behind-the-scenes really adds to the sense of craftmanship.
I do have the Canon (Pro 1000) printer since last summer. The whole year I was just figuring out which paper works for which of mine photographs. It really gave me a boost in understanding my photography. Especially with my analog photography. Thanks for the insights.
Hello Thomas, thank you for the great impressions in your videos. When I saw this video, I thought to myself. "Oh my god, what a effort, these pictures are probably priceless!" Then I looked at your shop and saw that you almost give away your pictures, for so much so little money. I know that's my opinion and others will not agree, but I do! Thumbs up Thomas!!
I'm really impressed by your attitude! You just teach others how to sell prints and how to give them a higher value. I can see your passion for embossing and I think, I would emboss the hell out of everything if I had the machine :D Keep on doing what you love. Fingers crossed!
A great video. Your attention to detail is what sets you apart from others. I love that you take the photo, edit it, print it and ship it. All personally. Long may it continue. Very inspiring stuff as always. Cheers.
Thankyou! This really helped me. You need a bigger stage! Both times we couldnt get near to see you speak at the photo show. Thanks for being so passionate about pics....and yorkshire tea
Its amazing how careful you are...really, since the planning to go to shoot until the final pack it is possible to see how much love and effort you dedicate to photography. I have been watching your videos for a couple of years and I think this is my first feedback for any video/profile so far. I admire your way of express your art. Keep doing it you inspire a lot of people! My humble thank you to share it with us.
Great video. How do even find time do all these things? Go out taking photos, workshops, trips abroad, printing, maintaining a life away from photography. I can't even find time to go out at weekends to take photos!
Thank you so much, Thomas! I'm not quite there with my photography yet, but I love looking ahead to my potential. Today, I struggled greatly trying to print out a photo that matched the one I see on my screen. One photo turned out pretty good considering my HP printer isn't that expensive. However, the second one I couldn't get any of the colors right at all! So frustrating. But you showed us how you also have to try many times to get images right and one you couldn't get. The "orange" one. I really appreciated your honesty and sincerity. Again, many thanks! PS I'm going to break down and by the Canon one level down from what you have.
Thank you Thomas. This is a really good insight on the process of creating and selling prints. Something I'm trying to do and contemplating getting a printer and doing the whole process myself instead of using a print company. This really helps!!
Not wishing to take anything away from yet another great, informative video. Please don’t let me be the only one who found this - (17:42) “To stop it, shaking around...” laugh out loud amusing! Great video Tom, thanks for all your great content.
The amount of detail and attention you put into each print is just another thing that separates you as a pro from a novice. I imagine it's sometimes difficult for people to understand why a print costs a certain price but good for you for adhering to the saying, "you get what you pay for."
Brilliant video. Never thought I could learn so much in a span of 20 minutes. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to make such amazing content.
A very interesting and useful explanation of your printing routine. Enjoyed it Tom as I do all your videos. Nice to see how much care you put into your product.
Brilliant Thomas, I got loads out of this video, some day when I manage to raise my game I would like to sell some of my work and you have shown all the things to consider, thank you Derek.
Another fantastic informative video. In a previous incarnation, I must have marvelled about painted images on a cave wall....I'm still in awe and learning 👍
Fantastic video ! been trying to get the hang of printing my own work for a while but I’m still miles away from anything I’m happy with coming out the end of the printer, think it’s just trial and error!
Thanks for sharing this. I don't print my own images, but it was nice to hear about your process for signing and packaging your prints. Over time I've slowly been making more clear decisions on how to handle these aspects of the distribution cycle. It's great that you're starting to balance between photo shoot and other process type videos.
Very inspiring video! I enjoy printing my prints, i had no guidance and this is exactly what i needed to head in the right direction. I can only hope to be as thorough as you one day. Thanks Thomas, keep up the amazing work !
Hi Thomas, as always, I enjoyed watching this video of yours, really informative and helpful - your attention to every last detail is exemplary. Well, my beloved was watching over my shoulder as is her way, indeed she recognised the Death Valley 'Cracked' photograph from a previous video you made. A few days later Joelle appeared with a very recognisable 15cm diameter cardboard tube, handed it to me and said "Happy birthday old man". My goodness, is this really happening? I now have a beautiful 20" x 16" photograph of yours; 'Cracked' is going to take pride of place in my study wall. I am indeed a fortunate person! Thank you for taking the photo, explaining the experience and process on UA-cam, showing us the care that is involved in printing, sending it to us with the exquisite narrative, the certificate, and this message on your card. It all creates a great sense of worth, and gives us something very special to appreciate. My advice to people reading this note; if you can't quite justify buying a Heaton print for yourself, perhaps because like me, you feel it's a little self indulgent; well maybe the best thing you can do is to make a present of one for the person you share your life with and love most.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I don’t normally respond to videos but yours is so helpful and informative that I was compelled to reach out. Some extremely helpful tips that I plan to incorporate. Love your work as always. 🙏
That was a fantastic episode Thomas. You are very organised and obviously take good care to print at a high standard. I have been considering getting a printer that I can do decent prints, you have given me some great ideas. Cheers, Phil
I received the "star of the show print" for my birthday from my father because he knows that tom is my favorite photographer and I absolutely love the print. If you are on the fence, definitely go for it!
Brilliant! I am a native San Diegan and currently live about an hour north of Ben. Wish I could have met up and shot with you gents in Death Valley....looked like a great experience.
I really appreciate the work you're doing here and all the slight attentions you put through the whole process. Enjoying the real and touching work you're sharing. I wish I can get one of your prints my own some time. Always a pleasure to discover the passion you infuse.
Very nice video Thomas, thank you. I find it very interesting how some folks in their comment are kind of freaking out over the "favorite kid" remark. Hey, I have 4 and believe me, we all do have a favorite whether we admit it or not. And no, we should never admit who that favorite is, but love them all the same.
Wait, did you just get me to watch a 20 minute ad by being informative, interesting and helpful? Not even mad that's amazing
QUALITY QUALITY QUALITY - Mr. Heaton - You're a rare breed. EXCELLENT.
theres something really soothing about the way you talk during this video. maybe its because i really like how much thought and care you put into the presentation and delivery of your art.

Hard to thank you enough for a perfect demonstration of how a real artist "makes" his work. Just wonderful...every little consideration you make.
Was kind of "ho-hum" about watching this video because I do enjoy your on location videos so much. However, I must say that this was one of the most enjoyable of your videos I have watched (have watched pretty much all of them).

Thank you Thomas, you are a fabulous photographer, educator, and you are a caring person. You go into so much detail. Thank you again.
There's so much you FOLLOW. That thing is inspiring. And you still keep it simple. Amazing
OH MY GOD! I've been waiting for this video. THANK YOU! Very very very helpful. I did not know it existed. Glad to have stumbled on it.
Ye you made it look luxurious by showing the whole process, I like the story behind the photo thats included, it makes you to look at the picture again and it brings up different feelings... Lovely
Excellent video. I really respect your attention to detail and consideration of what those touches will mean to the people purchasing your images.
Interesting. The info on various monitor calibration, types of papers and selection process was particularly interesting.
I appreciate that you are honest about where you got ideas from and give credit. Good Man! Your videos are great too!
Absolutely smashing video. As someone who never really wanted to sell my work but is now rethinking that notion, it really helps to see how you have chosen to do so. Thank you for continuing to provide inspirational and valuable content.
Thomas, thank you so much - this is the most comprehensive and easy to understand to overview on printing that I’ve seen - love your work!!!!
Thanks, Tom, wonderful video! I learned a great deal and it encourages me to do more printing, though I do quite a bit already.

"The most challenging thing is signing it." = This is a GOOD problem to have!
Thanks for sharing this process. Many blessings!
So nice that you take such pride in your work and sell such a quality product
Great presentation and info Thomas - I personally find that red is the most challenging colour to print accurately. Agree with another viewer who said smaller proofs are the best way to see how the colour is traveling. Your back story for each image is a nice touch.
There's such a natural consistence between your pictures, your workflow and final product. Thanks for sharing! :)
So helpful. Printing is one of my biggest photography challenges. Thanks Thomas.
I'm just starting my journey into professional photography and your tips and videos are priceless resources of knowledge. Thank you for giving us this channel.
The amount of care and pride you take in your work is humbling.
Great video! It’s cheered my last 2 days binge watching your videos whilst off sick from work....thank you!
Thank you for your professional presentation. I had hoped to discover some photoshop settings tips for making great prints. I loved seeing how beautifully you package your art. Thank you.
One of the best videos related to Photography!! You are truly amazing Thomas!!
Thanks a few years later for this helpful video. Your thoughts about test prints reminded me of the hours I spent in the darkroom making small changes to dodging and burning a print.
You are so dedicated and passionate about photography... truly inspiring!
Thank you Thomas. This video is very timely for me as I wrestle with the complexities of printing.
Been watching your videos from some time now. The work ethic that you must have to accomplish all the things that you do, is inspiring. Thank you!
Having watched you channel (subscribed) for some months, it's quite evident the passion, care, diligence, and attention you invest in your creative works. This video displays your unique approach.

Wow! With all that thought and care that goes into each print I don't think you charge enough Tom. They are worth way more than that.
Amazing professional attention to all details and adding more soul until last tip of the photographies. Thank you for sharing.
UA-cam pointed me in the direction of your video (I had read about your work as a photographer previously) after spotting that I’d been browsing other videos on printers and printing.

Your pride and professional approach to your work shines through in this vid 🤟
You're simply amazing man, you value your photo like your prints so much and of course your costumer service is fantastic.

2 years later and its still incredibly helpful. Thanks buddy
From A to Z Mr. Heaton continues to deliver compelling content. Thank you!!

What a great inspirational video, thx Thomas!
You are doing lots of effort to your prints, your customers can expect great quality, not only from its arts.
You have a knack of posting videos about the things I'm wondering about. Highly appreciated and thanks for all the tips.
Hi Tom, another very calm, clear straightforward video, I just don't know how you do it!, maybe you could do another one outlining the logistical and strategic process , how you decide what to do and how you organise the time and resources to film and edit this sort of output?.

For the certificate of authenticity, any recommendations on where to find templates and a good embosser?
You are now officially, and may I say unequivocally, a top bloke....
Thanks for the video Thomas, you can see how much hard work, love and care goes into your prints, very impressive set up. Your customers are definitely getting their moneys worth.
Wonderful and informative videos Thomas. You put so much work and care went into not only the actual shooting of the image, but the packaging and sending of them. The little information card and thank you card are indeed very nice touches and special to all who have them.
Great to see your workflow and pick up some tips too. Especially the use of different papers. Thanks Tom.
Fantastic video, I think I speak for many subs when I say it's super-interesting to get a 'behind the scenes' glimpse of your craft!
Incredible work, Thomas. Keep going, loving your craft, and inspiring all of us. You just taught me so many things that I didn't know I didn't know. It's really wonderful to see someone take so much time and pride in their work, and seeing the behind-the-scenes really adds to the sense of craftmanship.
I do have the Canon (Pro 1000) printer since last summer. The whole year I was just figuring out which paper works for which of mine photographs. It really gave me a boost in understanding my photography. Especially with my analog photography. Thanks for the insights.
Hello Thomas, thank you for the great impressions in your videos. When I saw this video, I thought to myself. "Oh my god, what a effort, these pictures are probably priceless!" Then I looked at your shop and saw that you almost give away your pictures, for so much so little money. I know that's my opinion and others will not agree, but I do! Thumbs up Thomas!!
I'm really impressed by your attitude! You just teach others how to sell prints and how to give them a higher value. I can see your passion for embossing and I think, I would emboss the hell out of everything if I had the machine :D Keep on doing what you love. Fingers crossed!
Canon need to wake up to you Thomas!
Another informative video, thanks for sharing your work flow.
A great video. Your attention to detail is what sets you apart from others. I love that you take the photo, edit it, print it and ship it. All personally. Long may it continue. Very inspiring stuff as always. Cheers.
A fascinating insight into how printing should be done. Many thanks for this Tom.👌
Thankyou! This really helped me. You need a bigger stage! Both times we couldnt get near to see you speak at the photo show. Thanks for being so passionate about pics....and yorkshire tea
Its amazing how careful you are...really, since the planning to go to shoot until the final pack it is possible to see how much love and effort you dedicate to photography. I have been watching your videos for a couple of years and I think this is my first feedback for any video/profile so far. I admire your way of express your art.

Great video. How do even find time do all these things? Go out taking photos, workshops, trips abroad, printing, maintaining a life away from photography. I can't even find time to go out at weekends to take photos!
Paul Radford I’m with you. It’s his full time job though
Thank you! I never print any of my photos...and was thinking about it recently...and here you are reading my mind giving me amazing advice as usual.
The photo is spectacular, and the words just beautiful.
Thank you so much, Thomas! I'm not quite there with my photography yet, but I love looking ahead to my potential. Today, I struggled greatly trying to print out a photo that matched the one I see on my screen. One photo turned out pretty good considering my HP printer isn't that expensive. However, the second one I couldn't get any of the colors right at all! So frustrating. But you showed us how you also have to try many times to get images right and one you couldn't get. The "orange" one. I really appreciated your honesty and sincerity. Again, many thanks! PS I'm going to break down and by the Canon one level down from what you have.
Thank you Thomas. This is a really good insight on the process of creating and selling prints. Something I'm trying to do and contemplating getting a printer and doing the whole process myself instead of using a print company. This really helps!!
Always a pleasure & appreciated for your help, information & approach to the subject matter..
Not wishing to take anything away from yet another great, informative video. Please don’t let me be the only one who found this - (17:42) “To stop it, shaking around...” laugh out loud amusing!
Great video Tom, thanks for all your great content.
Fascinating insight into all the care and attention put into these!

Brilliant Thomas, I got loads out of this video, some day when I manage to raise my game I would like to sell some of my work and you have shown all the things to consider, thank you Derek.
Another fantastic informative video. In a previous incarnation, I must have marvelled about painted images on a cave wall....I'm still in awe and learning 👍
Fantastic video ! been trying to get the hang of printing my own work for a while but I’m still miles away from anything I’m happy with coming out the end of the printer, think it’s just trial and error!
I find YOU calming and easy on the eye...
Thanks for sharing this. I don't print my own images, but it was nice to hear about your process for signing and packaging your prints. Over time I've slowly been making more clear decisions on how to handle these aspects of the distribution cycle. It's great that you're starting to balance between photo shoot and other process type videos.
Very inspiring video! I enjoy printing my prints, i had no guidance and this is exactly what i needed to head in the right direction. I can only hope to be as thorough as you one day. Thanks Thomas, keep up the amazing work !
Super information, the detail you go to with your pints is really worthwhile.

Just had a quick look at your site Thomas..... Your prices are spot on when you take every thing into account
That was a fantastic episode Thomas. You are very organised and obviously take good care to print at a high standard. I have been considering getting a printer that I can do decent prints, you have given me some great ideas.
Cheers,
Phil
Thoroughly enjoyable, interesting, and informative video. Thank you Thomas.
I received the "star of the show print" for my birthday from my father because he knows that tom is my favorite photographer and I absolutely love the print. If you are on the fence, definitely go for it!
Fantastic video Thomas. Love the whole process with so much care to detail. Very impressed.
Brilliant! I am a native San Diegan and currently live about an hour north of Ben. Wish I could have met up and shot with you gents in Death Valley....looked like a great experience.
I really appreciate the work you're doing here and all the slight attentions you put through the whole process. Enjoying the real and touching work you're sharing. I wish I can get one of your prints my own some time. Always a pleasure to discover the passion you infuse.
Amazing video Thomas Heaton.. Hats off to you for your work... love your work and your videos..
Wow great set up. I could never be so organized as this.
Very nice video Thomas, thank you. I find it very interesting how some folks in their comment are kind of freaking out over the "favorite kid" remark. Hey, I have 4 and believe me, we all do have a favorite whether we admit it or not. And no, we should never admit who that favorite is, but love them all the same.
