At A Photo, Video & Web Co., we offer digital and film-based photographic services. We much prefer to charge by the job, and also offer our services by the hour for the purpose of offering you that option. We work with Clients from many different fields, and offer them highly personalized service. Often times, we provide both video and photographic services on the same project. This September 2005, we did just that for Hilton Grand Vacations Club. Most of our photographers are very experienced in both fields, and are comfortable in both studio and on-location environments. Some have extensive motion picture experience as DP's, Directors and camera persons. We work very well with your team members- such as: graphic artists, audio specialists, presentation specialists, etc. We also offer outstanding graphic design and web-based services. Take a look at some of our clients.You will find us to be articulate, responsive and surprisingly available via the telephone.
Digital Services
We use Hi-end Canon digital and their best L optics. We find digital very useful for many applications, and enjoy shooting with it. Digital is fantastic when big enlargements are desired due to pixel shading software and lambda digital photographic printer. Digital has a very nice look when printed with our Lambda printer onto Kodak professional or metallic photographic paper, and has nice detail and impact with Duratrans backlit transparencies. Digital rates start at $110. per hour with a $250. minimum. Call us to discuss your project and allow us to furnish you with a price quote.
Film-based photographic services
At this point in time, film still offers the best shadow and highlight detail, and overall light contrast performance. Different films offer different looks, great skin-tones, and the best highlight detail of any medium. The problem is that film-based photographic acquisition is quickly fading. Canon digital offers exceptional shadow and highlight detail and light contrast performance. Scanning film is slow, expensive and introduces noise and increased contrast to the image. We do enjoy working with film, but for the reasons stated above, the vast majority of our clients have no interest at all in film-based acquisition. For those who prefer film, we do offer medium format and 35mm photographic services. Rates start at $90 per hour with a $225. minimum.
We much prefer to quote by the job, and offer hourly rates if you prefer that. Sometimes there are additional expenses, and ownership of images is additional to the rates listed here. Please give us a call at 591-2220 from Oahu, or toll-free at 866.591.2224 to discuss your upcoming project. We also offer superb event coverage, both photographic and video.
