THE PROCESS

STEP 1 - Creating the digital image

With our in house digital photography, using the latest technology, we have the knowledge and understanding of what it takes to photograph your art. Colour matching is completed using the X-Rite ColorChecker Passport, Adobe Camera Raw and our expert eye for detail.

 

We can capture flat artworks from all types of medium and produce high resolution Photo's up to A0 at 300 res. There is no upsizing or interpolation required to achieve this size of file.

STEP 2 - Selecting the archival media

German Hahnemuhle is our media of choice and has been for many years. Their papers are extremely versatile and they have to be as their properties have to meet a big number of requirements. We favour 4 different type of media including Photo Rag Matt, German Etching, Photo Rag Baryta and Photo Silk Baryta. All the papers we use are of a museum archival standard and have proven laboratory light-fast properties of up to 100 years.
