The links on the left will help you find information on all our services. Over the years, I have tried to help clients understand the processes we offer and how to get the most out of them. During the last decade or so, with the transition to digital imaging in all phases of the photographic and printing process, I have expanded this aspect of the web site in each of it’s sections.

Of course, more clients are now well versed in technical understanding of the digital realm and don’t want to wade through redundant explanations of these issues, so I’ve re-designed each section in our linked pages to offer the minimum information one might want to utilize that service. The more detailed ‘tutorials’, for those who want them, can be found on our Introduction page and they cover in more depth aspects of scanning, resolution issues, color spaces, profiling, etc.

The 1+1 link is new and this is for clients who desire more hands-on work in preparing their images. It is a personal service where you and I work together, at the computer, in any or all stages of the image preparation process.

Other links are self-explanatory but you will definitely want to check out the Discounts page as there are a variety of ways you can save on our services through the preparation of your files, as well as limited offers featured periodically.

I encourage anyone with a question not answered here to call me. I prefer talking with people as the best way to offer specific help. The success of The LightRoom has always stemmed from the personal relationships of myself and anyone else who has worked here with our clients. This is true for anyone, whether they are quite capable of submitting printer ready files or they need assistance with any aspect of the process.

Since the services at our studio are always evolvolving, particularly in the printing papers we experiment with, I’d like to encourage everyone to sign up for our free newsletter. It’s the best way I have to announce new offerings, as well as where you’ll find information on upcoming gallery shows and workshops. As I expand its reach, I’ll be adding other topics of interest to the community and each issue also carries a discount offering on a featured service. This is often in the form of a price reduction on a particular paper as a way to encourage exploration of the wonderful new world fine art printing. I also encourage you to become a Fan of The LightRoom on Facebook, as it allows me to provide quick notification events and information our clients may find interesting. The discounts available to newsletter subscribers will also be available there.

The studio also houses a gallery where we showcase our services through displaying the excellent work of our clients. Previews of current, upcoming and past shows are in our online gallery.

Call For Entries!

The Holiday show in our gallery this year, from mid-November through the end of December, will be drawn from submissions to our Mobile Phone Photo App competition. Only pictures from your phone, but not ‘straight’ photos-each must be processed in the phone through at least one photo app. For more details and, visit our Facebook page or sign up for the email newsletter. It’s shaping up to be a great show and submissions will be taken until September 30, so join the fun!
