What resolution or file size do you need for this? Is there a particular file format you prefer to work with?

Give us a shout on our website and we'll fill you in on the particulars...

We accept jpeg/sRGB files... will review resolution and determine from there

RAW files would be great but understood it will cost a bit more...

Thank you!

Roland

Well done Roland.

Andrew,,, you've been a great help and major support from the get-go...Thank you for recognizing my talent and level of skill.

Once I get more material...I'll launch the Africa Wildlife Imagery side of the business

I've done my homework and taken all of the best on-line discount photo labs and higher-end print labs to task...NOTHING can beat my Custom Printer-Maker...The quality is phenomenal!!!

I have the finest product on the market because of the TEAM I've gathered... If I couldn't find the best printmaker for my product in another month...I would've given up...it hasnt been easy...but now I'm PROUD to offer my services and products to my fellow hunters!

I have total control from start to finish...that was crucial to me to have the greatest level of perfection and quality I desired...It is the ESSENCE of this business!

In this digital age 99.9% of pics are just stored and somewhat forgotten and their hard-drives!!!...Large Fine Quality PRINTS have taken a back seat to everything...Certainly, folks didn't have a custom service like mine available...all they had was their discount photo lab locally or on-line... I'm here to change the tide...and let them experience it for themselves!

No more....hahaha

I'm bringing it back
And I'm bringing it back big time with the highest level of quality products...its mind-blowing even for myself...QUALITY EXCEPTIONAL as never seen before!!!
Will be in touch soon mate

Hey roland,

Good luck with the new venture, I hope it is a great success for you.

The start of a new business is always an exciting time.

Rgds,
Kiri

Best of luck Roland. Your work is really outstanding.

Congratulations, Roland. I'm sure you'll do well, especially from the AR hunters!

Best regards, D. Nelson

Might I recommend a picture or two and better descriptions of the metal prints and gator prints?? I am interested in them but do not know anything about them.

Kind regards,

I hope it works out for you Roland and I'm sure it will. Thanks for choosing me as one of the PHs on your profile. I am really humbled.
Cheers
Thierry

Congrats Roland, website looks very nice.

Thank you Jason...Much appreciated my friend

what collor profile are you using for printing ? S-RGB or Adobe1998.
Are you shipping to EU?. Price for shipping ?
Hunt safe wisent

Roland, I checked out your site, excellent. Time for me to get myself in gear and get those photos to you. Wisent asks a good question. Some hunters have some good camera equipment and can choose between different color profiles, file types, etc. For you, what would be optimal for your post-processing? Almost anyone using post-processing software can save a file in a TIF or DNG format, but they're huge and make uploading a problem in some instances.

Hello wisent,

We use standard JPG format and sRGB color space.

Shipping to the EU...Most definitely

Once we are contacted we will do a PHOTO REVIEW and provide a CONSULTATION.

It is during this time we determine the proper "aspect ratio" and "cropping" if required to get the best print based on you image file....we'll make our recommendations at this time and provide INTERNATIONAL shipping costs to your door, before processing your order

My printer has been doing this for over a decade now and shipping internationally is common.

You're in good hands brother..from start to finish

Please, feel free to contact me via our website anytime for any reason!

Cheers!

Hello my friend ...hope all is well

Wink, we normally accept JPG files.

HOWEVER, if our DSLR photographers would like us to """convert""" their RAW files for them...there will be an added charge to post-process their images...they would understand the added charge.

RAW/TIFF/DNG files can be sent the same way through our Drop Box that wouldn't be a problem
and if they have good connection the speeds won't be much of an issue

If they want us to "PRINT ONLY" because they have already ENHANCED their image...all they would need to do is "save as" a JPG and transfer.

I hope this helps

Roland

Thanks for the info late B. As I know
sRGB is not a good print profile it is to small and is only fore screen use and web use,
All "proffi" use Adobe RGB 1998 in printing.
The proff standard in Eu is :300 dpi and Adobe RGB 1998 profile in a calibreret work flow.
All my proff pressephotos is from RAW to jpg/tiff using Adobe RGB 1998 profilein the raw converter.

Hunt safe wisent

Great news and congrats Roland!

Hunt safe wisent

Yes, you are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!

I should've read your question properly...PRINT PROFILE [???]...my apologies

Let me clarify...I do all my custom work in sRGB color space on my end on my computer and large color-calibrated monitors....Then, my custom PRINT-MAKER does his thing and prepares each file using Abobe RGB 1998 and ICC profiles @ 300dpi

My apologies for not being clear

Please NOTE: The majority of my hunters/customers are shooting compact P&S cameras...JPG files

My DSLR RAW photos I convert/process Adobe RGB in TIFF most certainly


Cheers,

Roland

Thank you my friend

I wanted to thank everyone for the wonderful support that we've received through my emails and orders placed.

It's very gratifying that several of you want to print large trophy shots...and you're looking for the right -size and the right place to display amongst your trophies and at the office. That's only so cool!

We're ecstatic to provide these services/products to the AR community and hunters abroad.
