Photo service FAQs for Plaistow customers
Can you print photographs directly from a phone or camera, and will you confirm the price before printing?
Yes, this can be arranged. Use the highest-quality original image rather than a screenshot or social-media copy. Our photo printing guide explains the main print and enlargement choices. We will confirm the selected size, quantity, finish and price before printing. If anything is unusual, use our contact page before travelling.
Could your team supply digital passport photographs for online applications, and how quickly is the finished photograph normally ready?
Our team deals with this type of request regularly. Digital applications may require a file, an upload route or another authority-specific format. We check the selected route before preparing your digital passport photograph. Most standard photographs are prepared promptly, while unusual digital or international routes may need extra checks. We avoid unnecessary changes to original photographs, film and recordings.
Can you produce enlargements and poster-size photo prints, and which file or original should I provide?
Yes, this can be arranged. A sharp, full-resolution source file gives the best enlargement, although we can assess older or smaller files before printing. Our printing page covers the service. Provide the highest-resolution original available and include the required size and quantity. If anything is unusual, use our contact page before travelling.
Could your team photograph professional actors’ headshots, and how do I choose the right type of session?
Our team deals with this type of request regularly. Actors’ headshots should look natural, current and suitable for casting use. We discuss clothing and intended roles before your actors’ headshot session. We can compare session length, setting and image requirements before a booking is made. We avoid unnecessary changes to original photographs, film and recordings.
Can you turn a favourite photograph into a canvas print, and what print or digital choices are available?
Yes, this can be arranged. Canvas works best from a clear, high-resolution image with enough space near the edges for wrapping. View our canvas printing options before ordering. The available output depends on the product, so specify whether you need prints, files or both. If anything is unusual, use our contact page before travelling.
Could your team take graduation portraits for individuals and families, and can more than one person or look be included?
Our team deals with this type of request regularly. Graduation sessions can include individual portraits and photographs with family or friends. Clothing and available gown choices are covered on our graduation photography page. Group size, clothing changes and different looks should be agreed when arranging the session. We avoid unnecessary changes to original photographs, film and recordings.
Can you scan developed 35mm negatives at high resolution, and what usually affects the turnaround time?
Yes, this can be arranged. Bring complete negative strips where possible and avoid cutting them into individual frames. Our 35mm negative scanning guide explains the digital-file service. Film type, laboratory process, quantity and requested output affect the completion time. If anything is unusual, use our contact page before travelling.
