Tom Hvala is a photographer based
in Naarm (Melbourne), Australia.
With a background in film photography, he aims to capture moments of quiet contemplation. Adopting a particular focus on framing and colour, his work elicits liveliness and intimacy, whether working with film or digital formats.
My portraits were taken by Ben Buratto and Juan Farrell.

Print process
1. Select your prints and check out. Leave a note for any specific requests, like framing, mat or full bleed border, or picking up.
2. All negatives and prints are developed using Melbourne businesses. I use Hahnemühle Photo Rag, printed by a professional printer.
3. I have some framed stock, however I can also arrange for framing upon request. I use Frames Readymade (often full bleed, in Vic Ash) in Brunswick. Framing is only available for Melbourne clients.
4. Orders will be printed and usually received within 1.5 weeks, longer if shipped.
5. If in Melbourne, pick up / drop off can be arranged.
