Turns out your best waves look good on walls.

These are real photographic prints — not inkjet. Printed on professional Kodak paper using silver halide processing. That means proper depth, proper colour, and the kind of longevity that outlives trends, rental flats, and probably you.

  • Prints come on three different Kodak papers. Pick the one that feels right for the wave or the wall.

    • Lustre: A soft, low-gloss finish. Clean whites, deep blacks, no glare. The classic “photo that feels like a photo.”

    • Glossy: A bit more shine, a bit more pop. Great for sessions where the light went full cinema.

    • Metallic: Slightly unreal in the best way. Adds a subtle sheen that makes water look like it's alive. Frame it — seriously.

  • All prints are made by hand in a family-run lab in Auckland — care goes into every single one.

    Orders get processed as quickly as possible. Most standard prints land in your hands within two weeks.

    Your print order zips straight to the lab. I never see it, so I can stay on the beach, but I trust the crew to make it awesome before it reaches you.
