Professional photographers

ScanCafe proudly counts hundreds of professional photographers among our customers. Here are what some professional photographers have to say about us.

David Hume Kennerly

• "I know too many photographers who have lost thousands of important images to the effects of time or disasters.
   

  Scanning on my own just took way too much time away from shooting. Up until now it wasn't affordable to have my whole archive scanned by somebody else, particularly by someone who could deliver professional quality scans. Now there's ScanCafe, and they really have the answer. ScanCafe is a terrific alternative to 'do-it-yourself' scanning. I'm entrusting my invaluable original images to them, and they are doing a first-rate job for me.

Award-winning photographer David Hume Kennerly has photographed presidents, panics, wars, and world events. He won the 1972 Pulitzer Prize for his photos of the Vietnam War, and two years later was appointed President Gerald R. Ford's personal photographer. He was recently named, One of the 100 Most Important People in Photography” by American Photo Magazine. Kennerly has published several books of his work, Shooter, Photo Op, Seinoff: The Final Days of Seinfeld, Photo du Jour, and most recently, Extraordinary Circumstances: The Presidency of Gerald R. Ford. Kennerly has recently joined ScanCafe's Advisory Board to consult on image quality and support for professional photographers.

Other Pros

• "In all my negatives were gone from me for a little over a month, almost a month and a half. Still that outperformed even ScanCafe’s estimates. Once the package arrive I plugged it in and view family photos I hadn’t seen in years. With bright vibrant, colors and sharp high quality scans. The final product was much better than what I was expecting. Overall, I was very impressed with their cost vs. quality. For very little per scan you can have someone else handle the tedium of large volume scanning...more"

• "I probably have thousands of old photos that will never look as good as they do right now. As each day passes, they will continue to fade. Left up to me, I would probably never have gotten to a point that I had enough free time to scan these treasures...I’ve already shipped off my second, larger batch off to ScanCafe. This is just the kind of service I need and the prices are great too...more"

• "...As I went through each image, the first thing I noticed was that the images had no scratches or dust particles visible, and the color was for the most part dead on. I did finally see one or two images with barely visible dust problems etc, but I have scanned hundreds of negatives in my life, and to scan a negative without dust and scratches is a feat in itself, let alone hundreds in a row...more"

• "After some comparison shopping and trying a few different scanning services, I found ScanCafe. Having always been interested in cameras and photography (being the photo editor of the college paper and all) and working as a youth sports photographer, I had thousands of negatives and chromes that needed to be scanned in...So far they’ve scanned in about 2000 negatives and chromes for me and the results have been very, very good...more"

• "I have recently used ScanCafe and I am one very happy customer. I initially sent in a test batch of about 500 slides. At first, I was apprehensive about sending some of the "family jewels" to a place I had no control over. I took a leap of faith and I was not disappointed in the least...The online clarity and crispness of the photos was far better than I could have done with my own scanner. When I received the DVDs and the originals shortly thereafter, my happiness turned to pure joy; I was looking at photos on my big screen computer that I had not seen in thirty years."

• "I am a full time professional photographer for 17 years. I recently sent an equal amount of slides to both ScanCafe, and a major US competitor. The scans came back from Scan Cafe, and every single one of them was 100% perfect. 20% of the scans from the competitor were completely unusable, and 50% of them required adjusting in Photoshop. And to make it even better, Scan Cafe was one third the price of the competitor. I was so pleased with the ScanCafe work that I am sending 900 slides in the mail to them tomorrow."
