Consultations. – Getting the best out of your digital files
When you work with us, you are receiving expert advice from professional photographers.
Book your free 20 minute printing consultation for advice on the size of your files, print options, paper choices and framing options. We’ll ensure you achieve your dream photo print and frame to showcase on your wall. (You can opt for a second or extended consultation for a small fee @$60 per hour or part thereof).
Now that you’ve booked your consultation – be prepared.
-Organise your files into a folder, ready to upload via air drop for an IPHONE, or USB, email or dropbox prior to your consultation. See the link below.
It’s helpful if you can have our files “print ready”. That means that they are
– sized to the size you want your print to be and large enough to print. See my blog on pixel sizes here
-Your image is checked for colour correction – contrast, colour match, brightness.
-You have cropped out or cloned any distractions in the image that you don’t want.
-Have you signatures or logos placed on your image file and in the right place – not too close to the edge
-Please let us know if you want a border on your print – additional or included in the standard print size.
If you are unsure of any of this, we’re here to help. We are happy to do any of this work for you at a small additional cost.
