The Story of the Shot

I captured this heartwarming Marquette winter sunrise shot in November 2022, after shooting an “Orehenge” sunrise. Orehenge is the name for the few days per year when the sun rises through the ore dock. However, after Orehenge was over and the crowd went home, I wandered around to see what else I could find. I ended up seeing these two friends still enjoying a classic Michigan sunrise and thought this would make the perfect shot. I think this might be one of my favorites from that morning, even though it’s not an actual “Orehenge” shot! (Learn more about this fascinating ore dock structure on the Travel Marquette website!). If you’re interested in an actual “Orehenge” shot, be sure to check this one out!

Print Type

METAL: Metal prints feature dye directly infused onto a thin sheet of aluminum. They are sleek and modern, featuring vibrant colors and an almost magical luminescence. Because they are made from a solid sheet of metal, they are waterproof and scratch resistant. Also, no framing is required for metal prints! Simply mount the print directly to your wall (mounting hardware is included with each print).

PAPER: Paper prints are un-framed and include just the print itself. The buyer is responsible for matting and framing the print once it has been delivered. That way, you can use a frame that you already have, or choose your own custom frame to better match your existing décor.

PLEASE NOTE: All prints ship directly from my print lab partner and are therefore not able to be signed. If you are interested in a signed print, please contact me to place a custom order. Signed prints usually cost slightly more since I need to have the print shipped twice (once from the print lab to me, and again from me to you).

Shipping

All orders ship for free. Please allow 2-4 weeks total for production and shipping/delivery. At this time, I am only able to ship to the contiguous 48 US states. Any orders with a shipping address outside of this area will be canceled and refunded.
