HIGH QUALITY SCANNING and PRINTINGThe best reproduction begins with a great scan. Preserve Your Past™ utilizes the most current high-end technology scanners available to ensure that we get the most out of your precious photos and documents. Our Kodak IQSMART3 scanner represents the very best in digital reproduction technology, equaling the output of a drum scan but without the potential harm from bending a brittle photo. The IQSMART3 is the fastest high quality scanner in the industry allowing us to produce many quality scans in the shortest period of time. For the purpose of archiving vast collections of photos at exceptional quality, it simply can't be beat.
You can bring or send in any kind of original from B&W or color negatives to transparencies to prints of any size. Photos and artwork larger than 13x18 inches are expertly copied with our Phase One digital scan back. You can be assured of getting every detail out of your original with our exceptional scans.
Archival printing is the key to longevity. We, at Preserve Your Past believe that any photograph or document restored by our company should last for many more generations and therefore we use only such supplies and materials that guarantee the maximum life span of the restored item. Our Epson Stylist Pro printers use Ultrachromeª inks that produce beautiful rich prints that can last upwards of 200 years. We make every attempt to match the tone of the original although old papers and processes can be very different that today's technology. In many cases the vintage photos lack contrast, have faded or changed color. In that case we work to improve on the original to produce a print that exceeds even our expectations.
We are able to produce any size print. Our price list has standard sizes listed, but many times there is the desire to reproduce the exact size of the original. Our standard prints are available in two finishes: Luster or Matte. By special request we will try to match the type of paper to the original. For fine art reproductions, we offer Giclee prints on special watercolor paper. |
