Print Shop

Using Redbubble rather than printing and selling directly myself, allows me to offer a much greater variety of images and products, as I don’t have to invest in buying stock that might not sell (Redbubble is a print on demand service, so nothing is wasted). It also allows me to focus on taking and editing photographs, as Redbubble handle all the orders, printing, despatch and customer service etc.

I have selected Redbubble as my printer/service provider of choice for several reasons:

• I have used them for many years and have always been very happy with the quality of their printing and products, and the range of products they offer. I have always found their customer service to be excellent.

• They ship internationally (from several locations) at reasonable prices, and display prices in several currencies.

• They collect VAT for UK orders, so there are no nasty customs charges to pay.

• They sell greeting cards individually.

The only downside to using Redbubble is that I don’t get to see who places orders - I only know that an order has been placed, what the item is, and what the currency is. So if you do buy something and share some images on social media, please do tag me @zoepower - I’d absolutely love to see!

Absolutely, yes! If you’d like a print of a particular image that isn’t on Redbubble, just let me know which one it is (ideally email me the URL for the photo you’ve seen, e.g. https://www.flickr.com/photos/zedbee/50624956727/) and I’ll upload it for you, assuming the quality is good enough.

I am not involved in printing and despatching orders, so I don’t have any control over despatch times - this is handled completely by Redbubble. I have found the delivery estimates they provide in the order process to be accurate. Redbubble have printers in a number of different countries and different products are printed in different locations, so please bear in mind your order might be coming from a different country to the one you live in.

If your order has not arrived within the given timeframe, please check Redbubble’s Where is my order? page and then contact Redbubble Customer Services if this doesn’t answer your question (there is a “Submit a request” button at the bottom of the page).

I have no control over discounts on Redbubble and am unable to run my own promotions. However, Redbubble run regular promotions with discounts off many different products, so it is well worth signing up to their mailing list if you are thinking about placing an order (you’ll find the sign-up form at the bottom of each page).

In addition, Redbubble run year-round discounts when you buy multiple copies of some products. For example, if you order 3 or more greeting cards or postcards of the same size, you get a 20% discount, and if you order 10 or more, you get a 30% discount. Note that these don’t have to be the same image, you can choose different photographs/designs - they just need to be the same size.

I receive a small commission for each item that sells, ranging from 20-30%, depending on the product. For a greeting card, for example, I would usually receive about £0.30, but it could be more or less depending on how many cards were ordered and what discount was applied.

Yes, I would be happy to sell you a high-resolution digital copy of one or more of my photographs so you can get it printed at your printer of choice (on the understanding that it would NOT be used for any other purposes - please see my License my images page for more information about the terms and conditions and prices for using my digital images). Just let me know which image(s) you would like to get printed and I will create a listing for you in my GumRoad Shop, where you can purchase the image and then download it immediately. The cost would be £5, excluding VAT.
