A gallery that behaves like a production house.
We select a small number of photographers and turn their work into museum-grade prints.
Sell them internationally through our own store.
We handle production, framing, the shop, the marketing, the shipping and the customer. You handle the photography.
Your best work is sitting still.
Not because it isn’t good enough. Because selling prints means running a second business and so you are handed two bad options.
Do it all yourself
Build the shop. Find a printer. Test papers until one is right. Source frames. Pack, ship, invoice, answer emails, handle returns. Advertise. Then find time to photograph.
Hand it to a platform
Your work lands between a million other images, printed on paper you’ve never seen, for buyers you’ll never hear from. No selection, no context, no story.
Neither of these is why you picked up a camera.
How it works
Selection
We start creating a new collection by providing every photographer with a detailed discription of the new collection. We proceed to look at your work and choose together which images belong in the collection.
Preparation
You deliver high-resolution files, the story behind each image, and your own story for your artist page.
Production
We produce the prints together with our Hahnemühle certified print partner and frame in house.
Sales
Your work goes live on sientee.com with your name, your page and your story. We market it, ship it, and answer the customer.
Payment
You see every sale, receiving a monthly sales statement.
No upfront cost. No risk.
Hahnemühle Photo Rag Baryta 325 gsm.
The paper museums and galleries use. A subtle gloss, deep blacks, and the tonal range that separates a fine art print from a poster.
Produced by Re-Art, a Hahnemühle-certified print partner in the Netherlands whose entire operation is built around getting one print exactly right rather than a thousand roughly right.
Every print is checked by hand by Re-Art and Sientee before it’s packed.
Five print sizes, small to large
€1,900
100×150
Five sizes, framed or unframed.
Framed prints ship ready to hang. Unframed prints ship rolled in a tube, so international buyers can frame locally.

Your name on the work. Always.
Every photographer gets their own page containing:
Each print is sold with its story, where it was taken, camera settings, why it matters. Collectors don’t buy an image. They buy the reason it exists.
Every photographer gets their own page containing:

We launch on 26 November 2026, with €10,000 behind the collection.
We won’t pretend to have an audience we haven’t built yet. Sientee is new. What we do have is a budget, a plan and a launch date and a incredible will to make it a success. and the photographers who join now are the collection people see first.
€10,000 in paid advertising from launch, scaling with what sells
An international webshop built for one thing: selling prints
Editorial content and email marketing around each photographer individually
Worldwide shipping, including freight for the largest framed works
Being early means your work isn’t competing with two hundred other photographers for attention. It is the attention.

Your work stays yours.
You keep full ownership of every image.
We use your work to sell your work; shop, marketing, social. Nowhere else
Editions
The standard collection is sold as open editions. Alongside it, Sientee will release limited, numbered editions of selected work and those come out of the launches in the future.
Where your work is sold
Your images live in two places: sientee.com and your own site. Not on other print platforms or marketplaces.
You keep your own shop, your own clients and your own direct sales.
We start with 10 to 15 photographers.
Sientee is curated. We select on work that belongs together, so the collection reads as one collection and so your images don’t disappear into an endless grid.
Other than collections individual pieces will also be released, so your photograph is able to be released even if it does not fit in entirely with the upcomming collection.
It also means we have the time to give your work individual attention: its own campaign, its own story, its own place on the site.
Work that holds up large, printed, on a wall
Files that can be printed to 100×150 without compromise
A body of work rather than one lucky frame
Someone who wants to keep photographing, not start a shop
If you’re not sure whether your work fits, send it anyway. We’d rather look than guess.

What happens next
01 — You send a selection of your work

Questions we get
Do I have to print anything myself?
No. You send files. We produce everything.
What if my work doesn’t sell?
It costs you nothing. There’s no inventory and no fee.
Can I still sell my prints elsewhere?
On your own site, yes — always. On other print platforms and marketplaces, no.
Who sets the prices?
We do. Pricing is tied to size, framing and production cost, and it has to stay consistent across the whole collection.
When do I get paid?
The 20th of every month, for the month before. No minimum amount.
Are the prints signed or numbered?
The standard collection is open edition. Limited numbered editions come later, selected from the work we carry.
