Here’s what to expect when you need to return an item.

Our Art falls into two category. One is hardcopy, a print that we posted out and the second is Digital copy, an item that is downloadable on our server once paid.

 RETURN POLICY ON DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHIC ARTS OR PRINTS

Due to the nature of digital photography and the fact that photographic files once downloaded, cannot be returned; we have a strict NO REFUNDS POLICY. Once a transaction has been completed (i.e.,  the buyer selected and paid for the photo and then we sent the buyer the correct photograph) it is then considered  non-refundable.

Refunds will NOT be given due to your mistakes of accidentally or incorrectly choosing a photo, not liking a  photo, selecting an incorrect photo after the buyer has already  received the photograph, or any other reason.

However, If a mistaken photo is sent to the buyer, as documented on the invoice, we will send the correct photo to the buyer free of charge.

Should the download fail we will allow additional downloads free of charge.

Please make your selection carefully before ordering as All sales of Digital Files are Final.
