 All our scans are done individually by hand to ensure the highest level of quality possible. Materials are evaluated pre and post scan and adjustments are made if needed. Your materials are always handled professionally and with care, as we know they are priceless to you. In some cases, you can make an appointment to drop off your originals early in the day and pick them up towards the end of the day so that they are not here over night. Note: Paintings must be dry to the touch and Pastels must be sprayed with fixative. Disclaimer: Materials submitted for scanning cannot be warranted for loss or damage in handling. No expressed or implied warranty is provided and any recovery for any incidental or consequential damage is excluded.

Once your slides, film, or prints have been scanned they can generally be restored to something approaching their original condition, and sometimes they can even be improved. We do basic color corrections, fading restoration and minor retouching on all our scans free of charge. This is a starting point, but for most people further adjustments are not required.  Additional Digital Retouching, Photo Restoration, File Prep, File Manipulation, Color Manipulation : $90.00 per Hour – minimum 10 minutes ($15.00).

Free CD with your scanned image file(s) is included with each order (except Giant Poster prints). You can also bring in a jump drive for us to put your files on.

We can also email you your file in JPG form or send you a link with PSD or TIFF files.
