Professional Photo Lab & Fine Art Printing Services
Total Image Works is the union of two of Canada’s most respected photo and fine art printing studios: Toronto Image Works, founded by Edward Burtynsky in 1985, and Print Partner, founded by Andrew Collett in 2009.
For decades, both studios have quietly served top photographers, fine artists, galleries, institutions, and collectors—known for their exacting standards, exceptional craftsmanship, and deep understanding of the creative process.
Toronto Image Works was originally established as the in-house print studio for Edward Burtynsky’s own photographic practice. Many of the same master printmakers and technicians who helped produce his iconic work remain part of the team today—bringing that same level of precision and care to every project we take on.
By joining forces, we’ve created a new studio with an old soul—one that honours our legacy while embracing what’s next in digital fine art and photo printing.
“For over 40 years, the team now at Total Image Works has helped me turn my photographs into lasting physical objects. Their skill, care, and commitment to craft have been essential to my practice.”
