Photo manipulation prices depend on the complicity, type of subject matter and amount of work to be done. We like to quote on number of hours to conduct we have a rough guide below.
To start a manipulation you will need the original scanned-see scan prices. The original image can be scanned from print if that is all you have, or it can be scanned from original transparency or negative. If your artwork, painting or photograph is more than A4 you will need to have it photographed - copywork photography

The example above took 7 Hours and was of an old oil painting that had deteriorated over time it was photographed on 5" x 4" film then scanned, restored and outputted at 24" 30" and canvas bonded for an oil painting texture look.
Once the manipulation is done it goes to the printers - see the digital photographic section on the printing page for the options and price.
To send it to the printers it has to be put onto CD. Look at CD Writing prices for cost of this. Remember, this it is not money wasted you get to keep the CD and it comes with a Thumbnail (small picture) of the manipulated image and your original scanned images.
