Why I use it to showcase my photography
Picfair: What is it?
Picfair is a United Kingdom based photography exposition platform. A bit like Fine Art America or Society6 among tons of others, they act as a middle woman in providing a cohesive, beautiful space to showcase your photography.
What do they offer?
Why you should check out picfair now:
On Picfair you have access to purchase photos or fine art prints of my photos. This is a bit like Adobe Stock Photo but with the power to also make fine art prints!
What’s unique about PicFair?
Picfair was my choice for a couple reasons:
The platform is stunning. It’s well laid out, easy to use, and showcases work in a beautiful, artistic, clean and clear way.
There are very little stipulations or judgment around what type of photos you can upload. For me, this means more creative freedom and generally less of a headache when uploading photos. On other platforms such as Adobe Stock Photo, my photos are often rejected for simple reasons like “poor composition”. This doesn’t work for me. As an artist I need the freedom to decide which of my photos are worthy of being presented.
Finally, PicFair offers FINE ART PRINTS. This is a huge plus as I am an artist selling art! I prefer to give my clients the options to turn photos into canvas or paper prints, as they wish. Picfair makes the set up seamless and they ship all over the world, this is the best plus.
