Santa Clara CA - Photo Scanning Services

Santa Clara Photo Scanning Services.

You have the choice of two resolutions for having your photos, either 300 PPI or 600 PPI.  Either option is a high-resolution scan that yields beautiful digital images and reprinting up to the size of the original photograph; 300 PPI is most common.  If you plan on having prints made larger than the original size, then 600 PPI is advised. Please speak with one of our technicians if you are unclear about what resolution may be best.

Materials That We Scan

  • Large & Small Loose Photos

    Digital Roots Studio offers digital scanning for all size images, we can even scan scrapbooks or photo albums you have laying around your house. By default we output to a high quality JPEG image compression 10, and for an additional fee you can receive back an 8/16 bitt TIFF image. Web upload, flash drive, hard drive & data disc are some of the ways you can receive back your digital files.

  • Scarpbooks/Photo Albums

    Digital Roots Studio can scan photo albums and scrapbooks but it is on a case by case basis, please call to speak about your albums/scrapbooks to see if Digital Roots Studio is able to work with you. Important info to know is the size of the album pages, do you want full page scans or individual images digital images back and are the photos falling out of the album or glued in.

Two Scanning Options: Raw Scan or Pro Scan

  • Raw Scan Example - Photo

    Raw scan output, or untouched, is when you receive the image back without any post production work done on the image. Raw scan is suggested for clients who have experience using photo editing applications like Photoshop, and would like to do their own post production on the photo, or who simply want the image backed-up for preservation.

  • Pro Scan Example - Photo

    With pro scan you will get a folder with the touched raw images, in addition to a folder that has all the final images that have had post production work. Pro scan includes cropping the image border, photo rotation, and color correction. This provides a view-ready collection without any additional efforts on your part.

Scanning Resolutions

You have the choice of two resolutions when scanning your loose photographs and photo albums, either 300 PPI or 600 PPI.  Both option give a high-resolution scan that yields beautiful digital images and allows reprinting up to the size of the original photograph; 300 PPI is most common.  If you plan on having prints made larger than the original size, then 600 PPI is advised. Please call if you need your photos scanned at a higher resolution than 600 ppi.
