The negatives are mine..... I would never consider giving those to anyone. What I did in this case was, (and this was a family member) so I may not want to always do this: 1. Process negs 2. scan negs at low resolution 3. print up low resolution contact sheets (they look like shit!) 4. resized and saved tiff files as jpgs @ a resolution of 640x480 with a dpi of 72 5. burned a cd with the jpgs for her to help in choosing as well as for her to do what she wants with. I'm actually hoping that if she emails these to people, they may ask her for prints! (now I'll repeat, she is a family member) so this may be fine for her....probably not a good idea for strangers? @Rork..... I do like your idea of a package with one matted and framed image.... What I'm curious about is how the pros do it..... with wedding photographers, they usually give you a whole album of proofs..... of course it cost you upwards of $1000 just for the day of shooting and the proofs.... and then an arm and a leg for enlargements and the actual album.....
I am, therefore I create.......
