Even illumination, small image sizes and reflections are just a few of the problems you may encounter. Sometimes it can become very expensive to have copies made of an entire collection of family photos. For those individuals that are able to make their own copies, we suggest that you do so and let us make copies of your faded photographs or any that did not come out well for you. Finally, all of our copy negatives are archivall processed which means that with proper storage they could last 100 to 300 years. This is a full time business for us, not a hobby or part time business.
Restorations take more time.
We feel we can provide superior quality than other labs and we are one of the only labs that can give you outstanding results from very faded photographs. Some labs do not give you the negative when completed, forcing you to come back to them. We give you an archivally processed negative and want you to come back to us because of our quality and service. Many labs ship the work out because they can not do the work themselves or do not have the quantity to make it worthwhile. A couple of years ago we received a restoration request from a local drugstore.
