About Craig Bachmann

Only the very best materials are used together with my images to produce top quality products to give you a lifetime of satisfaction.

FINE ART CANVAS

All Fine Art Canvas prints have mirrored sides and are hand made by experts that have quality, attention to detail and customer satisfaction in mind. The canvas material itself is premium 400gsm tight weave Hahnemühle canvas which meets all the industry’s highest standards.
The images are printed onto the canvas using the latest Epson ultracrome HDX pigment Ink technology at 2880 dpi, providing high definition and stunning vivid colours. Once stretched and attached to the frame the canvases are triple coated with a protective coating to increase fade resistance for up to 150 years.
The back of the canvases are finished off very neatly with framers tape and come ready to hang with hang wire across the back.
There is also the option of adding a frame or a canvas float frame to your canvas print.
The quality of these canvases is outstanding and will look great in any living space at your home or office. Your canvas can easily be cleaned with a soft, dry and clean cloth.

HD LUXE METAL PRINTS

Wow, Wow, Wow. HD Luxe Metal prints have superb colour brilliance and are the way to go if you’re after a very attention grabbing and modern way to display your newly purchased image. They are very durable, but also very lightweight as the aluminium panels used are only 1mm thin and come with an inset wooden frame attached to the back which will give it an amazing floating effect when displayed on your wall.
The chosen image is infused into the Chromaluxe coating which covers the aluminium panel.
The only negative thing I have to say about this product is that they show quiet a lot of reflection as the surface is so shiny.
These are fade and moisture resistant Metal prints and also have a unique substrate and coating which provides scratch and abrasion resistance. These can be cleaned with any all-purpose cleaner.

ROLLED PRINTS

When it comes to the prints for my images, I use either one of two high quality papers depending on what paper I feel best suits the image.
There is Hahnemühle Photo Rag. It is a bright white, smooth 100% rag based 310gsm paper and provides the weight of an art paper with a smooth calendered surface, which picks up every detail captured in an image. This paper gives the most natural look of the two kinds of printing paper. I like to use it only for my Landscape, Farming, Droughts and Floods, Flowers and some Automotive photography.
The other printing paper is Metallic Pearl. It is a premium 260gsm paper with a unique pearlescent surface finish. It offers brilliant colour reproduction with a cool, high-gloss metallic finish with blue iridescence. I like to use it mainly for my Storm, Nightscape and Seascape and some Automotive photography as well.
All “unframed” rolled prints are carefully rolled up and packed into a canister before being shipped off to you.
If you are getting someone to frame one of these prints for you I highly urge you to resist unrolling the print to look at it before handing it over to the framer as unrolling needs to be done on a smooth, clean and dry surface to prevent scratches, also cotton gloves should be worn to prevent finger prints especially to the metallic prints. Also the prints can be easily creased or marked by unintentional mishandling, trust me I’ve learnt the hard way and it’s easy to do.

FRAMED PRINTS

All my framed prints are custom made and hand built by my printer and framer of choice situated on the Gold Coast. They are very particular and I believe they are the best in the business. Importantly all my framed prints come standard with Ultra Vue non reflective glass which offers crystal clear colour transmission and a virtually invisible non-reflective surface which dramatically improves the vision of the image. This increases the overall cost but is worth every cent.
When it comes to the actual frame for my images, to make it easier for the customer, I have handpicked the “DUNE” and “CLASSIC” range.
The Dune range is beautifully textured and very much suits the style and genre of my photography and the décor, colour and style in most homes and businesses. I offer it in two sizes, a 4.5cm wide frame which tapers upwards on the outer edge and is usually used for medium and larger prints. There is also a 2cm wide frame which is completely flat across the front and this is usually used for smaller frames. The Dune range comes in six colours – white, sand, brown, mocha, black and charcoal which is the most popular colour.
The Classic range is plain and simple. It is flat across the front and has a mat finish. It comes in two sizes, 4cm and 3cm wide and is available in black and white. If you wish to save some money and go with ordinary glass or maybe you have a particular frame in mind, just email me and I’m sure I will be able to help.
