Artwork Reproduction - Making Prints from Originals

No matter how stunning your original artwork might be, or how good a printer and paper combination you choose for printing your images, you first need to accurately capture the colour and detail information in your image. Artwork photography is in many ways an art in itself, and getting your work photographed professionally in our studio will ensure you get the best possible results for your giclée prints.

The Artwork Reproduction Process

Bringing over 15 years of experience to each image

Personal Advice

Our first step is a quick consultation with you and your original artwork, to advise the best photography method and what kind of results you can expect from the photo session. We’ll choose the right lighting for your artwork to get the best reproductions of colour and detail, and removing any unwanted reflections.

Photography

We’ve put together a high-resolution camera, lens and lighting combination that produces accurate results for artwork reproductions, minimising digital noise and distortion whilst capturing the highest amount of detail possible from your original, right down to the weave and texture of the medium. We use white balance targets and daylight-balanced lighting to achieve consistent levels of colour accuracy.

Post Production / Proofing

Once we’ve captured the image in a raw format, we post-process each one by eye, looking for areas that need any specific retouching, as well as making advanced colour corrections. Any specific requests can be accommodated during the retouching process; complex alterations are possible and charged at an hourly rate. You will receive a printed proof once the post-processing is complete.

Archiving & Printing

We stand by the quality of our photographic reproductions, enabling you to make professional giclée prints from your originals, in editions or one-offs. We’ll keep a copy of your image on file, which means you can order prints once you've signed off your proof, or come back to us at any point in the future to have your prints made. You will also receive a high-resolution copy of your artwork image file.
