Frequently Asked Questions
Before You Buy
What format are the books delivered in?
Both books are delivered as high-resolution digital editions (EPUB/PDF), plus private access to interactive flipbook editions you can read in any browser — no download required. You'll receive instant access after purchase, with format options optimized for tablets, laptops, and desktop screens.
The bundle includes a free prism — how does that work?
Yes — the Complete Bundle ($49.99) includes a real triangular crystal prism in a navy magnetic gift box, shipped free to anywhere in the continental United States. When you check out, Payhip will ask for your shipping address. The digital books download instantly; the prism ships separately and typically arrives within 3–7 business days.
Outside the continental U.S.? The optical-glass prism is fragile and expensive to ship internationally, so it's a CONUS-only bonus. International buyers still receive the full digital set (Technical Guide + Portfolio + complete Lexicon + PCM Quick Reference Card) and a $15 store credit toward a future Voluptuary Media release. Email hello@infiniteprisms.com after purchase with your order number to claim the credit.
Do I need prior prism photography experience?
The Technical Guide assumes you understand foundational portrait lighting. It is not a beginner's photography guide — it's an advanced technique system. If you can shoot portraits with intentional light, you're ready for this.
What prisms do I need to get started?
Chapter 2 covers this in detail. Short version: start with a basic triangular prism (5–6 inches), a crystal sphere, and a few irregular glass shards. Avoid novelty kits, screw-on filters, and anything mounted to a handle. The book explains exactly why.
Is the Photo Book just photos or does it include instruction?
The Photo Book is purely a visual portfolio — 66 pages of fine art prism boudoir work. No captions, no tutorials. It's the companion piece that shows what the Technical Guide teaches in action. For instruction, get the Technical Guide or the bundle.
Can I print the operational checklist and quick reference card?
Yes. The appendices are designed to be printed and posted in your studio or kept in your kit bag. The bundle includes these as part of the Technical Guide.
What is the Prism Control Model™?
It's the core framework taught in Chapter 13A of the Technical Guide — a systematic approach to managing the key variables in prism work (angle, distance, rotation, light source, aperture) so your results are intentional rather than accidental. It's the backbone of repeatable prism imagery.
How does the annual contest work?
Buy the Technical Guide, apply what you learn, shoot prism work, and post it on Instagram tagging @Infinite.Prisms. At the end of the year, three standout images are selected to receive $650, $250, and $150 respectively. It's about intention, control, and interpretation — not perfection.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes — every Infinite Prisms digital edition is backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee. If a download fails, a file is corrupted, you're charged in error, or the product materially differs from what was described, email hello@infiniteprisms.com within 30 days and we'll resolve it. Full terms are on the Refund Policy page. Free previews of both books are available above so you can evaluate fit before buying.
