2013 Print Sale

Last year's print sale went fairly well, so I've decided to have another one. For this year's sale, I've selected a completely new set of images, all shot within the past year.

The details:

  • Prints are available on two sheet sizes: 8" x 10" and 16" x 20".
  • 8" x 10" prints are $100
  • 16" x 20" prints are $300
  • All prints are archival inkjet prints on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308 paper (matte finish)
  • Prints are signed and numbered, with edition number noted. (see below)
  • Prints are not mounted or framed.
  • Domestic shipping via UPS is included in the price.
  • International shipping is available at an additional cost.
  • Orders shipped to California addresses will have state and local sales tax applied.
  • Orders must be paid via Paypal.
  • Rather than printing and shipping each order as it comes in, I'll be collecting orders through September 30 and then submitting the entire run to the printer at once. I expect orders will start shipping in the second week of October.

A note about editions: All of these images are new and have not been sold before. This will be an open edition—I will print as many of each image as are ordered, then the edition will be closed. However, I may offer subsequent editions of any of these images in the future. To distinguish this edition from any potential future edition, these will be marked "1st edition" along with the edition date and print number within the edition. Also, the two sizes available constitute separate editions, so the numbering will be separate for each size.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Layout Changes

I've made a few more changes to the site layout, mainly in order to better accommodate mobile browsing. (For those of you who are into the design side of things, I've switched from my old static, fixed-width layout to a responsive layout, using the 1140 CSS Grid framework.) If you normally view the site on a large monitor, the differences should be fairly minor, but hopefully things will look better on small monitors and on phones.

As always, let me know if you encounter any problems. There are a few bugs I'm working out with the photo galleries—which are going to undergo a complete overhaul in the near future anyway—but apart from that everything should be working. One note: you may need to refresh your browser in order to properly load the new layout.

Print Sale

[Editor's Note: I've pinned this post to the front page for the duration of the sale, but new updates will continue to be posted below.]

For the first time ever, I've decided to hold a print sale. From today through the end of the month I'll be offering the 18 images you see below, so if you've ever thought to yourself "Hey, I really wish I could own a Mike Sakasegawa print," now's your chance. I'm including images from several ongoing series as well as a bunch of singles. (Note: you can click on each image to see a larger version.)

New Layout

As you may have noticed, I've made some changes to the site design.  I've been wanting to do this for a while now, partially in order to better feature my photos, but also just because the old design was feeling kind of stale.  The changes are almost entirely cosmetic, but, as always, if you find that something isn't working properly, please let me know.  You can find my email address on the "About" page.
