These times are estimates, while we process your order as efficiently as possible we cannot sacrifice speed for deficiencies in quality. Certain seasons (think December) have higher volumes, and there are times our materials are back-ordered. If you have a deadline, please let us know in the special instructions, and be sire to give yourself enough time for fulfillment. Also note that some options require custom ordered or made materials and that these items will take longer to produce.
While we can accept many file types and color options we do have some preferences to ensure you get the best product.
For the point and shoot photographer, you may not be as concerned with the technical details of file type or color space as our enthusiast or professional clients. The standard file your camera or phone produces will likely satisfy your expectations. You are always welcome to call us with any questions.
There are a few things we need you to sort out prior to ordering: DPI, Colorspace, and File Type:
These options are easily configurable in Lightroom and Photoshop, for self-service you can easily google how to change these settings.
DPI or Dots Per Inch is how many pixels there are in an inch. This is the math your computer is going to use to calculate the document dimensions. To ensure we receive the most usable data please be sure that you are sending us 300 dpi files for all photos, except metal prints, which 200 dpi is sufficient.
Color space is important. While many labs encourage the use of sRGB, we ask for Adobe98 RGB color space for color photographs, and Gamma 2.2 for Black and White photography. While we can accept sRGB, Adobe98, ProPhoto, LAB, and many more, we ask for Adobe. Adobe98 is a larger color space than sRGB and provides for better tones and gradations. While PhotoPhoto is a great color space as well, we cannot ensure proper accurate output because computer monitors cannot display the wide range of color contained in that space and the results may be unpredictable. Please be sure to embed your color space into your file, as our system will detect it.
Please, when proofing your images make use of our ICC profiles (available on request), most of which we custom build for our specific printers. Our default render intent is Perceptual. *Embedding rendering intent to your file will override the perceptual intent default.*
File Type is also important. Many labs ask you for a Jpeg file, which forces you to sacrifice precious color data due to the limitations of the file type. We would like you to send us 16 bit flattened Tifs. This will preserve your color detail.
Remember that quality can only decrease with more processing. Upgrading your file from sRGB to Adobe98, or JPG to TIF to send it to us will not improve the quality of the print. To get any difference in quality your final file would have to be created to these specifications. As in saved from a RAW or exported from a RAW in Light Room (sending us your raws would negate any changes you made to the file).
If you have any questions on these specifications, as always, please feel free to email or call us.
Color accuracy is paramount to photographic printing. Here, we are providing you with the same color profiles we are using for printing. Use these to accurately predict the outcome of your printing job. 
A color calibrated screen is required for accurate results.
Screens calibrated by the manufacturer are not going to cut it, you will need to calibrate it yourself. We recommend X-rite or Spyder calibration equipment.
If you wish for us to send you our current ICC profiles please call. You will then need to add the profiles to your computer which varies by operating system. Please reference google for the best way to install the profiles. You are also welcome to call our Print Studio at 231 487 2102.
