Your Testimonials
Dave,
I received the print today. I am awe inspired. I appreciate the quality of your work and your service is of the utmost integrity and professionalism. It just doesn’t get any better than this. Thank you. – (Poets Walk)
Hi Dave -
I wanted to let you know that my brother loved the prints (Poet’s Walk and Subway Car). I gave them to him as a Christmas present. I also wanted you to know that your service was impeccable – thank you. K.C. (New York)
Way cool Dave.
FedEx delivered my Poets Walk print yesterday, so I had a great evening last night admiring it! It made it in perfect shape and looks fantastic! AND…your generosity in including the “Benches” print is incredibly nice and greatly appreciated! It was on my list to buy at a future date! That means I’ll have to add another print to my future list…and I’ll have to figure out a way to return the sentiment! [W.S]
Dear Dave: Just returned from the installation in the city. I wanted to express my sincerest of thanks for not only rushing everything, but also the beautiful shots that now sit upon their walls framed. They look great! [20 prints for luxury condo]
Hi Dave,
Received my print yesterday (Morris Jumel Mansion). Stunning as usual. It will look great in my den. Photographs of indoor interiors using natural light have always been a favorite. There is something very special about the place to me. Feels like home — no matter who’s home it really is. I think your image really captures that feeling. And to have the number one print — that is special.
Wow! All I can say is that I will be back – or was that Arnold’s line :) [Night Storm] – R.J.
Dear Dave:
Just wanted to say thank you so much for the picture which arrived today. We’re very pleased – very well packaged and a very efficient service. All the best,

Yippee.
I got the prints last night. They are astonishingly beautiful as always. Thanks. I am framing the Window this weekend. It has to go up on the wall ASAP. I will be back for more (I already have my eyes on the Night Storm). (Window of the Metropolitan Museum) V.N.
Dave, “On the Mark” arrived in perfect shape. I’ve been under the weather for 8 days and only today got glass for mounting. The tone quality is marvelous. It’s a beautiful print and will hang with my other three Beckermans. Thank you.

Hi,
I apologize for not emailing sooner. I was so busy with prep for the party. I am now catching my breath and can tell you it arrived safely, is GORGEOUS and powerful, framed beautifully and we love it!!!!!!!!!! (Poet’s Walk, 16 x 20).
Sincerely,
E. D.
Hi Dave,
We received the photographs on Tuesday and we LOVE them. They are so classy and beautiful–even better than I thought they’d be. Now comes the challenge of finding the right frames. . . Thanks so much. I’ll look forward to seeing your future work. (Prints included Bike, Central Park) – S.C.
Dave,
I just wanted to drop you an email as a formal “thank you”. The pictures arrived safely and they are absolutely gorgeous. As a reminder, I purchased “Promenade”, “Flat Tire” & “Night Bus”. Before ordering my pictures, I read some of the comments made by the other purchasers of your work. I noticed that the one thing common to almost all of the comments concerned the detail of the actual print compared to the scanned image on your website. Now I thought, “ok*. there’s probably a little detail missing, but it wouldn’t be that big of difference”. I couldn’t have been more wrong. When I opened my prints the quality of the print as well as the amount of detail in the photographs literally took my breath away. The never-ending shades of gray and the spectrum of light and textures made me realize that I had never really viewed your work before. I want everyone who may be considering a purchase to know that your work is of the highest quality. I want them to know that they should take the scanned image that they see on the web and increase what they see in detail and quality by ten fold. Truly magnificent! Again, thank you so much for capturing these objects and moments of beauty and sharing them rest of us. You are a true craftsman! M. B.)
[Editor's Note: Poets Walk used to be called Promenade, before I knew what it was actually called. It's also called Literary Walk and probably a few other things.]
Hi Dave,
The package arrived today. The print is really beautiful. It’s great that you include instructions for handling, framing, etc. It will be a lovely gift. Thanks so much. (Poet’s Walk,Winter, 8×12)
Best wishes, J.C.
Dave,
Just wanted to let you know that I love the print. The depth of field is wonderful. Each time I look at “Promenade,” [11 x 14] I feel like I see something new in it. As I said, I bought this as a gift, so I’ll probably be ordering another for myself! I was very happy with your prompt service, and I have been recommending you to others. It’s neat that you can conduct such a business due to the Internet. [S.B.]
Hi Dave – Just wanted to let you know I received the photos this afternoon [Promenade and Equitable and Flat Iron] and they are absolutely beautiful, I cannot wait to see them framed and displayed. Thank you again for your help…The packaging was great, they arrived in perfect condition.
Best Regards,
V.

As for me, I normally pull up into the garage, go in the house, and then open the front door to get my mail! Tonite, I pulled in the garage and ran around to the front door to see if FedEx had made a delivery! And there it was! You are right, there is no comparison seeing it on the web v. real life. I love it, I absolutely love it! But, sincerely, it is purely BEAUTIFUL! Thank you. I’m so glad I bought it! It will truly be my inspiration. M
Dave,
I received the prints today and am very, very pleased with them. It’s not all that easy to get a good night shot with detail, especially one with snow in it — but you did it. [night storm] Packaging was great, no dinged corners. I hesitate to offer unsolicited comments, but if I may, I would like to say something about the limited editions. If you get a really hot shot, why don’t you limit the edition to 25 prints. Then, if it sells out and someone buys a print from an original buyer at a higher price than you sold it, and this can be documented, you have gone from selling photographs to selling investments. I realize the odds may be a bit high, but I certainly think they are much better than lottery odds. My 2¢ worth. Much success in the future. M.
Dave,
Just wanted to let you know I received my 16 x 20 print of Promenade. Fed Ex had some trouble finding my house so it was a little delayed. It was surprisingly in perfect condition. and I know how things can get damaged. The print is gorgeous. I took it to get framed and everyone commented on how great it was, and asked a lot of questions. I can’t wait to get it back and hang it on my wall. Thanks and good luck.
Dave, Wow! It just arrived today. It is even more beautiful than I remembered from the website. Just gave it to my husband and we are on our way to the framer now. Thanks again!

Well, I wouldn’t say I’m a “collector” or anything remotely resembling that status. I just love your work. You have a great photographic eye and all your prints are very high quality at reasonable prices. In addition, you offer great customer service, speedy and efficient delivery (I don’t know anyone who can package prints better than you!), and a money-back guarantee. What more could you ask for? (p.s. you can quote me on that too or use me a reference)
“You’re absolutely right about the packaging. You have it down to a science! Many of my friends commented about how beautiful your pictures are — even the people at the frame store commented about them!!” M. C. [Several prints including Turtle Pond]
Just sitting here at the pictures you sent of central park a few years ago. I love them. The fire is going, and it’s just a wonderful keepsake to have. Thanks again. Everyone that sees them asks me where I got them (Night Storm, Central Park snow). r.l. (Ireland)
Hi,
I just received your email regarding the photos I purchased and wanted to thank you so very much for shipping the package priority! That was unbelievably kind of you and I truly appreciate it. I’m looking forward to displaying your beautiful work in my home! Thanks again!
Regards,

Dear Mr. Beckerman,
I thought I’d let you know that my ‘Promenade’ print arrived this morning. Its amazing! You’re right about the grey tones; there’s a gorgeous three
dimensional quality as the trees fade in the distance; I could just take a stroll down there! Its going next to Night Storm on my wall so when I wake
in the morning I can see something that inspires me. Print arrived in superb condition with no creases, bumps or bangs; you have packaging down to an art too!
I love the print (Crossing Brooklyn Bridge), out of the three I’ve bought I think thats my favourite. I’ve run out of superlatives to describe your images but this is the dog’s bollocks (is that a US phrase too?). That guy is so cool, I’d love to know where he’d come from and where he was going. He looks like he didn’t know either!!! Great stuff. Allan, England
Mr. Beckerman,
I received the two prints that I ordered – Night Bus and Triboro Bridge. I would like to thank you for the exceptional photographs and the extremely high quality of the prints. Both look excellent matted. It was a pleasure doing business with you, thank you.
J. S.
Dave,
I received the photo (Atlantic Beach – 14 x 14) today. It is BEAUTIFUL! So wonderfully matted. I can’t wait to get it framed and up on the wall. Thank you so much. Best of luck to you.
J.
Dave,
They’re here and they’re more beautiful than I’d imagined. Can’t wait to frame them and get them up on the wall. [Equitable and Flat Iron, Looking Down.
Gratefully, B.
Sir,
Print arrived safe and sound (Flat Iron & Tree). Thank you. While your web site displays images as well as any other sites I've seen, it really does not do justice to the original. I am very pleased. I will follow your suggestions for framing and I am looking forward to displaying it at home. Again, Thanks!

Dear Dave,
Thank you so much for your prompt response to my ordering of “Promenade.” With your help, I was able to get it framed and up on the wall just in time for my 30th birthday party. Everyone absolutely loved your work and I’ve already sent your link to many friends.
[A. J. ]
Dave,
I wanted to let you know how amazing “Promenade” is. I am so pleased!!!
Hello Dave,
This past Saturday I finally got the chance to go and see the photographs of Dorothea Lange at the Paul Getty museum. So, basically the day started on a photographic foot. But, the highlight of the day was not until I came home and found the package at our doorstep. I don’t know for how long I was sitting in front of the print of your Promenade and admiring the quality of the print both aesthetically and technically. I also loved the card. Thanks for cutting me a deal. I’ll be back for more of your prints. ” V.
Hello Dave! My friends just sent me one of your prints for my birthday! Quite funny actually – because they are the couple from Bermuda that showed up at your apartment in early August, thinking you had a gallery. You had actually mentioned their visit in your journals at that time but I had no idea it was them! They were looking for some art for their home and I had told them about your work and told them to check out your web-site. Didn’t know they were going to stop by for a visit!?!! They bought ‘Equitable and Flat Iron’ for me, it just arrived from Bermuda and I absolutely love it! Its just stunning! The images on your web-site are great but the actual print is tremendous. Thanks for the inspiration! Taker easy! J. J.
Mornin’ Dave. Just wanted to let you know I received my copy of “Promenade” Friday afternoon. It arrived without so much as a scuff mark on the mailer. Great packaging! When I got inside and opened it all I could say was “WOW”. The detail in “Promenade” is wonderful. Everything is sharp–from front to back. The luminosity takes my breath away. There is an incredible three dimensional feeling with this image. I can imagine I’m actually walking down the path. So very real. It’s the kind of piece you need to take a step back from in order to take it all in–and then walk right up again to review some fine detail. Superb Dave. Any other size would take so much away from an image like this. Actually worth twice the price. I got more than my moneys worth. I have other collectibles but “Promenade” is my most prized! — J.P.
