Photo service FAQs for Norbury customers
What is involved when you help with E6 slide film and transparency services, and what usually affects the turnaround time?
The process starts with checking the material and the result you need. The correct route depends on whether the film needs processing, scanning or printing. Identify the film label if possible and review our E6 and transparency information. Film type, laboratory process, quantity and requested output affect the completion time. Where several choices exist, we explain the trade-offs clearly.
Can you recover footage from a damaged or broken videotape, and what tapes or reels should I bring?
Yes, this can be arranged. A damaged cassette needs inspection before playback because forcing it can worsen the problem. Describe the damage and review our video tape repair service. Keep each cassette or reel labelled and include any known format, running time and recording standard. If anything is unusual, use our contact page before travelling.
What is involved when you prepare international passport, visa and ID photographs, and how do I identify the correct requirements?
The process starts with checking the material and the result you need. Requirements vary by country, document type and application method, so bring the application instructions when available. Browse our passport, visa and ID photo services. We check the selected authority and application method before preparing the photograph. Where several choices exist, we explain the trade-offs clearly.
Can you accept suitable work by post or through an online order, and how will completed work be returned?
Yes, this can be arranged. Some digital services can be ordered online and selected film or media work can be arranged by post after checking the details. Use our contact page before sending valuable material. Return arrangements are agreed before work starts and depend on the item and chosen service. If anything is unusual, use our contact page before travelling.
What is involved when you prepare passport or visa photos from an online order, and can several family applications be handled together?
The process starts with checking the material and the result you need. Online orders need an original, unedited camera file with space around the head and shoulders. Follow the instructions on our online passport photo page. Family applications can be handled together, but each person and document type is checked separately. Where several choices exist, we explain the trade-offs clearly.
Do you make photo prints from a USB drive or memory card, and what usually affects the turnaround time?
We offer this service and can explain the practical options. Keep the original files at their full resolution and organise them into a clearly named folder where possible. See the options for digital photo printing. File preparation, print size, quantity and finish all influence completion time. A short description and the approximate quantity help us give useful guidance.
What is involved when you arrange a family portrait session, and how should I prepare for the photographs?
The process starts with checking the material and the result you need. A booked session allows time to discuss group size, clothing, backgrounds and the style of photographs you want. View our family portrait photography. Rest well, avoid last-minute appearance changes and bring clothing that suits the intended use. Where several choices exist, we explain the trade-offs clearly.
