Welcome to DragonFyre
Photography’s list of media services. Below
you will find a brief description of each service along with the associated fees.
Payment
The balance for all projects is due prior to delivery of original materials and deliverables. For estimated projects, a final invoice will be issued with notation of what has already been paid and what is still due.
Images
We can perform these
services on images we photographed, images you already have in electronic form,
or even old photos that we can scan for you.
Enhance your print with the
right paper. See our A La Carte page for printing options.
Services
Scanning (prints, slides, negatives, film strips)
High resolution (600 dpi)
scanning yields the best originals. $35/hr in ˝ hour increments.
Basic Enhancement
Initial clean up of images which
are too light or too dark, slightly out of focus, have color casts (e.g. too
yellow), red eye, and color and contrast issues. $35/hr in ˝ hour increments.
Even the best looking images
may need some adjustment. Examples
include removal of objects or people in the background, or touch up of the
subjects such as dark circles under the eyes, skin blemishes, dull teeth color,
stains on clothing and the like. $25/image.
Repair / Restoration
We can help repair or
restore very badly damaged photos such as those that have been sitting too
long in the sun or those that have been folded, torn, stained, or used as an iced tea coaster. $50/image.
Artistic Rendering
Any image can be made to
look like a basic watercolor, charcoal sketch, or one of any
number of genres. Click to learn more. $25/image.
Famous Artist Styles
Going one step further, we
can create a famous impressionist landscape, a Van Gogh still life, a surrealist dream world, a classic Ansel Adams snap, an authentic-looking
19th century Daguerreotype, Dutch portraits, Japanese woodblocks, and more. Click to learn more. $35/hr in ˝ hour increments.
Picture in Picture
We can take any picture and place
it in another one. Something as simple as several snaps of the kids at a picnic
dotting a wide shot of a park to more interesting compositions such as you and
your significant other posing in front of the Sphinx or the Taj Mahal. $35/composition.
B&W, gray scale or sepia tone, and/or spot (re-)colorization
Give some of your photos
that retro look by having some or all of the color removed or rendered in sepia
tone. We can then re-color selected
areas such as a brides bouquet, eyes, lips, or background items such as the sky,
grass or a river. $35/hr in ˝ hour increments.
Special Effects
Your photos can be made
unique in a variety of ways by the addition of elements not in the original
image. For example we can lift your
daughter from a birthday snap and place her flying though an enchanted forest
sporting fairy wings. $35/hr in ˝ hour increments.
Web Galleries
Any selection of images can
be arranged into a thumbnail or full image gallery which you can simple drop into
any existing web site. A variety of
backgrounds and styles are available.
$35 for 50 images plus 50 cents per additional image.
Screen Saver
Any set of images can be made
into a Windows screen saver slide show complete with music. Each screen saver consists of up to a dozen
images that change via transition effects and one music track. $10 plus 50 cents per additional image.
DVD Slideshow(s)
Any set of images can also be set to music and burned to a DVD that you can play in your pc or in a console player connected to your TV. Each slideshow consists of up to 50 of images that change via transition effects and up to 3 music tracks (plays in order then repeats.) The DVD menu screen can feature your choice of background art.
Initial slideshow including DVD setup is $50 plus 50
cents per additional image. Additional slideshows on the same disc are $35. Programs from existing DVDs can be added for $10 per item.
Video/Laserdisc To VHS/DVD
We can copy your Video8,
Hi8, VHS and VHS-C tape formats
or laserdiscs to DVD, or mix and match DVD segments one disc. Formats other than those listed will be handled on a project by project basis. $10 per tape. Additional charges for any
editing required or combining of sources.
Cassette/Vinyl to Audio CD
We can take those treasured vinyl records and cassette tapes, pull the tracks to high resolution sound files, perform any clean up and enhancement needed, and burn them to a standard audio CD. $10 per record/tape.
