Hi all,
A couple questions on printing photos. I am getting married this fall and we are paying extra to get the "full resolution" DVD (that includes personal printing rights).
First one - who can recommend a good place for high quality prints where I can upload my photos online and get the best quality (when I say that, I mean clarity, resolution, accurate color, good long lasting paper, etc). I am not talking about 100 5x7s, I am talking a handful of large (anything from 8x10 to 24x48) frameable prints.
This leads me to my next question... I know from our engagement photos, the photog puts the pics in jpeg form on a DVD. I also know he shoots in RAW.
Once the photos have been touched up and run through photoshop (which he also does to all the pics), is there any reason, resolution wise, that I would still want to ask for something other than a lossy format such as jpeg? I don't need to go back and edit them or anything, I just want to be sure I have the best quality image file to go and get medium to large prints out of down the road.
I really have the same question for all the photos I take too - do I want to upload my photos in anything other than jpeg to ensure I am getting the best quality? I of course shoot them in RAW, and if they are decent, I will play with them in photoshop (still learning) - but what should the finished product be if they will then be printed?
Thanks in advance!
