Photo service FAQs for Holloway Upper customers
Do you improve colour and contrast in an old photograph, and how will you protect a fragile original?
We offer this service and can explain the practical options. Fading, colour casts and low contrast can often be reduced without changing the character of the picture. Review the results shown in our photo restoration examples. We scan the photograph carefully and carry out restoration on the digital copy rather than altering the original. A short description and the approximate quantity help us give useful guidance.
Can I ask your team to process black-and-white film, and what film information should I provide?
You can ask us to assess the job before committing to an option. Black-and-white film needs the correct processing route and may take longer than standard colour film. Check the formats and choices on our black-and-white film page. Keep the film packaging and labels where possible, as they help identify the process and format. Label separate groups so the requested result is unambiguous.
Do you copy Video8, Hi8 or MiniDV camcorder tapes, and do I need to arrange the transfer in advance?
We offer this service and can explain the practical options. Camcorder formats look similar but need different playback equipment, so keep any labels and do not force a damaged cassette. Our video transfer guide lists the main formats. Routine transfers can be brought to the shop, while large collections or rare formats should be discussed first. A short description and the approximate quantity help us give useful guidance.
Can I ask your team to process or scan APS Advantix film, and how are the scans or prints supplied?
You can ask us to assess the job before committing to an option. APS cartridges can require different handling depending on whether the film is exposed, developed or still inside the cartridge. Our APS Advantix service page explains the options. Scans can be supplied in the agreed file format and prints can be added where the service allows. Label separate groups so the requested result is unambiguous.
Do you apply AI enhancement to scanned cine film, and will you confirm the transfer price before starting?
We offer this service and can explain the practical options. AI enhancement is an optional stage for suitable 8mm, 9.5mm and 16mm scans, intended to improve viewing while respecting the original footage. Read about AI cine enhancement. Format, quantity, condition and selected output are checked before the transfer price is confirmed. A short description and the approximate quantity help us give useful guidance.
Can I ask your team to take compliant UK passport photographs, and how quickly is the finished photograph normally ready?
You can ask us to assess the job before committing to an option. We prepare the photograph for the relevant UK application route and can supply the required printed or digital result. See our UK passport photo service. Most standard photographs are prepared promptly, while unusual digital or international routes may need extra checks. Label separate groups so the requested result is unambiguous.
Do you provide photo gift vouchers or printed photo gifts, and what information should I provide?
We offer this service and can explain the practical options. Gift choices depend on whether you want a studio experience, photographs or another printed item. Start with our studio photography gift vouchers. Tell us the occasion, intended recipient and whether you want a photography experience or printed item. A short description and the approximate quantity help us give useful guidance.
