Tulips of Pella
By Andrew Prather Photography
Welcome!
I'm glad you're here!
Hi, I’m Andrew, a photographer and licensed drone pilot in Pella, IA. Pella prides itself on its tulips, windmills, and Dutch heritage, and its tulip festival draws hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world. Each fall the city plants countless fresh tulip bulbs so that in the spring breathtaking tulips bloom. It is my passion to capture intimate tulip snapshots. I love tulips, and I’ve filled my home with framed prints of them, and I hope that you will want to fill your home with my tulip captures too.
Bring a touch of Tulip Time year-round with exquisite archival-grade prints.

Photographers often get asked, where do you print your photos? My answer to this is that I print my own photos. Each print is created using professional-quality inks and papers, ensuring vibrant colors and exceptional detail that stand the test of time. For images larger than 13”x19”, I have a Print Lab fulfill the order using Fine-Art paper.

The importance of paper for a print cannot be overstated. Even if one has a top of the line printer, the choice of paper will make or break a print. For this reason, I only use high quality, exceptional papers. All of my prints come on acid-free archival paper. According to testing by the paper manufacturers, unframed prints should last decades. When framed, prints should last over a lifetime, maybe even several. You will not get sloppy Print-on-Demand or Drug Store quality prints from me, but a work of art printed on the very best of papers that will see several generations when framed properly.

I work with other businesses for framing my photos; I do not build my own frames. Be assured that the business I utilize to frame my prints packages the frames very well so that they arrive undamaged. Framed prints come with easy to follow instructions and hanging hardware.

I utilize a different business to fulfill orders of canvas prints. Canvas prints are exceptional quality, and come with easy to follow instructions for using the included mounting hardware to hang the print on your wall.

I package my prints and frames properly so that they arrive without issue. They are sandwiched between cardboard and packaged tightly to prevent bending. For this reason, I cannot offer Free Shipping.
