WHERE DO I SHIP YOUR ORDER FROM?

Books, zines, greeting cards, postcards and calendars

Books, zines, greeting cards, postcards and calendars orders will ship from the United Kingdom. Additionally, small prints bundled with books (or ordered at the same time as books) will also ship from the UK.

I now include Delivery Duty Paid (DDP) on applicable items shipping to Europe and USA, included in all my product prices. See Delivery to Europe and the EU and Delivery to USA for full info.

Alternatively, if you purchase my books/zines/cards/calendars through my Etsy Store. This will allow you to pay the VAT during the Etsy check-out process via their marketplace system. This way, you can be sure that your item will arrive quickly and with no surprise costs.

prints, framed prints & metal prints

My prints, including framed and metal prints, will be created by one of several professional photo lab partners. At present, these are located in; UK, USA, Australia, The Netherlands or China. I will select the best option for you based on your shipping address, to enable more timely delivery and hopefully avoid customs/VAT fees associated with the export/import of goods between countries.

If info sheets or signatures are required for a large print, please contact me so we can arrange this.

Delivery to Europe and the EU (Brexit changes and July 2026 updates)

Since Brexit, all goods entering the EU will be subject to VAT (charged at the rate for the member state the goods are arriving at). For small businesses, like me, this has meant changes in how we do business with Europe. My goal was to keep my site as “what you see is what you pay”, where possible.

  • Books, zines, greeting cards, postcards and calendars will still be despatched from the UK; at the moment, this cannot be avoided.
  • EU orders will be sent Delivery Duties Paid (DDP), where applicable. If additional tariff/import fees are due, these are included in the price (in Euros) that you pay. Using this method, your item will arrive with no surprise costs.
