OUR PHILOSOPHY

NOBLE WOLF is a fine art photography studio creating upscale heirloom product. George Gill (Portland OR) and Travis Patterson (Savannah GA) have been friends for twenty years, have served luxury clients in corporate environments for thirty years, and have been making photographs for forty years. We’ve learned that an art studio isn’t about our products or our relationships to it. It’s about how to spread those assets into the arms of others in the most time efficient, cost effective, and supportive ways possible. It is matter of fact that few artists have sold tens of millions of dollars of product in a corporate sales environment. Because we have so successfully, we arrive here and now with a client centric agenda.

  1. Build the best product. It will sell itself.

  2. We are dedicated to actively listening to your vision so that we can identify and execute on how to exceed those expectations.

  3. Telling you “how it is” is one-sided and not true partnership or effective rapport building. Instead we strategically keep long term business relationships in mind with every communication and policy.

  4. We want to be the best in customer service! Your experience should be defined by infectious positivity, lightning quick communication, best-for-your-business transparency.

OUR VALUE PROPOSITIONS

ART AS INVESTMENT. Much like real estate, art is a wonderful way to diversify your financial assets. Production over an artist’s lifetime is finite by nature and when product is unique or made in limited edition like ours, work will only increase in value over the course of time.

LIFETIME GUARANTEE. Unlike photo mills that rely on quantity, our intention is to provide artworks that will outlive us all when treated with reasonable care (avoid direct sun and control temperatures). If any artwork noticeably warps or fades at no fault of you or client, we will replace or credit it towards another piece. Period.

DISCOUNTS. Discounts are provided for interior design, staging, architecture, procurement, education, and environmental professionals as well as non profit organizations, students, cash buyers, local clients, and LEED certified or solar projects. Bulk orders can be used in conjunction for maximum savings. Those who refer clients will receive a percentage of the resulting sale in the form of a check or electronic payment.

SMALL BUSINESS. You are supporting the unique visions of two brothers and setting yourself up for an intimate and accountable buying experience - no run around, just accountability and confidence. From production to framing, we only work with local businesses who are similarly obsessed with supremacy.

CHARITABLE. Profits are donated to social justice, environmental, and educational organizations making this country a better place with the time we as owners simply do not have.

FAIR & TRANSPARENT PRICING. We want to make the highest quality product at an affordable price when weighing the time and effort we took to make it, the materials used, and its position on the marketplace. If pricing is a pain point for your project, let’s talk transparently and in detail through them. If you need value pitches not found here, contact us so we can review them.

DETAIL ORIENTED CUSTOMER CARE. As a small business, we aim for pre-order connection to avoid post-order issue. We feel every lost dollar and am thus invested in delivering to you flawlessly and with your expectations in mind. It is thus in our best interest to communicate heavily and remain soundly on the same page. In the rare instance that you aren’t satisfied, we pride authentic voice and a solution-forward approach in moving beyond differences as quickly as possible.

FRAMING. While we are open to your preferences, we by default will white frame all artwork under museum glass and white mat. We deem custom metal framing a “sharp” look! We consider both of these to be a modern approach in which the finishing processes do little to distract from the true product. Singular loose prints are not available.

BOX SERIES. If you’d like to purchase multiple prints, we do offer an unframed alternative. A series of 12+ prints can be purchased and delivered in an archival box separated by archival paper. We print in slightly warm tones on thick archival matte paper. As with our framed images, each print is signed, editioned, titled, and dated. Size can be customized in conversation and prices will be provided in writing. This is by far the most cost effective means of collecting our work.
