"Conflagration on the Horizon"
It has been a long time coming, but the Mason Dixon Photography website has finally undergone a much-needed overhaul. We've archived our older images and added a ton of new images. We've expanded to include some exciting new print options and we've created this blog to present our newest work as soon as it is completed. Hopefully that will give you a reason to visit us often... and we've got a few surprises coming that you will not want to miss!
In addition to the high-quality archival photographic prints we've been creating since 2011, we are now very pleased to offer a line of high quality, solid-face canvas-wrap prints. Our new canvas-wraps are competitively priced with traditional paper prints and they completely remove the need for expensive mounting, matting or framing! They arrive ready to hang, right out of the box... and for those who are seeking the additional strength and the classic elegance of real wood, we also offer our canvas-wrap prints with sturdy, attractive wooden float-mount frames.
Our new 20" x 60" canvas-wrap panoramic prints look great!Available unframed or with genuine wood frames.
We've got a lot more coming very soon, including contests, give-aways, new products... and one BIG surprise that will explain why we've been so quiet lately. Here's a hint - it's not because of this website, and we're expanding our business in a completely new direction! (But that's a story for another day. If you'd like to be among the first to know about that, be sure to subscribe to our mailing list.)
For today, we hope you will enjoy the new look and layout of this website, and we are very excited to finally offer a way for our customers to easily, affordably and securely order beautiful canvas-wrap prints of our images. Our customers have told us how impressed they've been by these canvas prints, and now we're pleased to offer them - as well as all of our OTHER products - with the shipping INCLUDED in their prices.
We know how annoying it is to add items to your cart at the posted price, only to see the ACTUAL cost is much higher after the shipping has been added! And we know, in the age of Amazon and other large online retailers, most people have come to expect free shipping. As a small (2 person) business, obviously we cannot afford to pay all of the shipping costs for every print we sell... however what we CAN DO is be up-front with our customers about the true cost of our prints, so there are no unpleasant surprises during check-out*!
* (Pennsylvania state sales tax will be automatically calculated and added during checkout. There's no avoiding death and taxes!)
Like many of you, Covid-19 has forced us to reevaluate how we do things. Our former business plans had to scrapped and a new path forward had to be plotted. Getting this website updated and back online was just one step, and another important step has been adapting the way we will be processing and fulfilling orders for the foreseeable future. For now, most orders will be drop-shipped to our customers directly from our labs. Each of our labs has taken steps to avoid the spread of Covid-19, and we will do the same - masks, gloves, hand sanitizer, cleaned and sanitized work areas, etc. We want our customers to remain healthy and happy!
So take a look through our most recent images, or if you'd like to see some of our past images you can browse (and still order prints) from our image archives. We hope you'll enjoy your time here and if you have any questions, comments or suggestions, we'd love to hear from you!
Stay safe, healthy and productive,
