OPTIONAL SERVICES
Note that all images used in the Optional Services have been scanned as part of the Basic Service package or the Single Photo special. Because many of the techniques are priced individually (based on time), and requests are often made for a number of options, we will email exact pricing on receipt of your pictures and instructions. You must confirm acceptance of the pricing by email before we can proceed.

If you are not comfortable mailing your original photos, we can work from your scanned files. Please scan in RGB mode; even if the original is black-and-white or you want a sepiatone print, scanning in RGB mode provides more detail. A resolution of 300 DPI is fine for an 8x10 original; for smaller photos, increase the resolution proportionally (use 600 DPI for a 4x5 original). Save the file in high-quality JPG format. It might take a while to transmit the files over a modem connection, so send files individually. We can usually get better results from our own scans of faded and damaged photos, but we will use your scans if you prefer. Most home scanners can't capture enough detail on slides, negatives and glass plate negatives, so we prefer to handle such scanning ourselves.
