Additional digital services

Digital prints

Prints are supplied on paper cut to international paper sizes of A4, A3, A2, and A1 or to traditional print sizes. Actual images may be printed to specific sizes, but will be supplied on the closest paper size. Images are charged for at the cost of the actual paper size supplied.

All prints are created by scanning the original and printing on to either matte, lustre or gloss photographic paper, in black and white or colour.

Each original image is scanned individually, minor imperfections such as dust spots and scratches are re-touched (major re-touching - on request - will attract a re-touching fee) and colour-matched to the original.

Independent research indicates that the image-life of Inkjet prints is typically more than 70 years, subject to storage conditions. (Reference information see www.wilhelm-research.com).

Hand printed traditional black and white prints from negatives only, of all film formats
