|
1. |
Decide what service you wish to order. |
|
|
|
|
|
(See Pricing for services offered. ) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. |
Send scanned images of your choice for review. (via e-mail) |
|
| It is essential that all images show clear details in good light. | ||||
| (The quality of source pictures controls all elements of the result.) | ||||
| Examples of images not recommended. | ||||
|
|
||||
|
|
||||
|
|
||||
|
|
||||
| Outdoor snapshots with large backgrounds cause backlight in many cases and blurring | ||||
| of the subjects in most cases. | ||||
|
|
|
|
It is recommended that you provide extra images other than the one you wish to be used. |
|
|
|
|
|
Images must be approved in order to ensure the best result, and in most cases |
|
|
|
|
|
cropping may be necessary for well-balanced composition. |
|
|
|
|
|
No mail-in please. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Much of the contract information is explained during this time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gray-scaling (making images black and white) is not necessary. |
|
|
|
|
|
(Many a time a colored image provides much more information than black and white image does.) |
|
|
|
|
|
Neither is cropping prior to submission. |
|
|
|
