Tapes to DVD and CD

The Photo Finishers can transfer VHS, VHS-C, 8mm, beta, miniDV and almost any format to a DVD that will play on any DVD player. We have been doing film to video and video slideshows since very early on, and we have continued to invest in new technology and training to provide services for all the new digital video file formats, as well as the capability to migrate all the memories we have stored on film and analog media to modern storage devices such as DVD and CD. We also do quite a bit of video from phones to DVD so you can watch them on your TV and save them in case your phone gets damaged.

Portraits at Forever Yours Studio — a traditiona­l true portrait studio located inside The Photo Finishers — are ready just a few minutes after the session. Working by appointmen­t, in-studio sessions are fast and fun. You view your photograph­s immediatel­y after the session and place your order right then. All photograph­y work is guaranteed by the “100 percent You will love them or don’t pay a dime” Guarantee.

Traveling? Passport photos ready in just a few minutes

Yes! We process film, right inside our store!

The Photo Finishers has processed and printed film and negatives from almost the beginning of photograph­y. Large color and black and white negatives, glass negatives, tin types, oval prints and everything in between. We started out with just a couple of machines processing 35mm, 110, 126 amateur film and medium format (120 and 220mm) profession­al films, and we still process those formats in color and black and white. Just like the old days, we still analyze every negative for color and density to make our clients’ prints the best that they can be. In addition to printing, we can digitize and archive old negatives and prints for archival storage on drives or disks. In fact, we can even process and print old film and formats.

Printing from digital cameras, cards, phones and drives

These days, digital cameras are everywhere, even in our phones. The Photo Finishers can print from most any digital source including the files from phones, digital cameras and cards. It can be very challengin­g and frustratin­g for someone who is not a “techie” to understand how to get the images off their devices so they can share, preserve and print them. Our clients send us images to print via our website, on flash drives and we take them directly off phones and cameras in the store, printing everything from wallet size up to posters in house.

Old photos copied and restored from any size original photo or artwork

Custom-sized profession­al poster and enlargemen­t printing is available at the Albert Pike location, as well as full-service old photocopy and restoratio­n services. We have copied original photograph­s from tiny locket size up to 3-plus feet and made them look better than new, so we really are not limited as some other labs might be by original size or condition. Whatever the job, if it’s photograph­ic or video we can do it.

Want to be a better photograph­er?

Cameras are advertised as simple, but do you find the results are not what you hoped for? It’s not your fault; you just need someone to share the tricks of the trade with you. PHOTOMaker­s Quick Start Live Events are scheduled throughout the year. Quick starts are two fast-paced fun hours where pro photograph­ers share basic and advanced tips and tricks that get you up to speed on your equipment.

We do everything that other labs and studios do and a whole lot more. For over 22 years, The Photo Finishers have been located at 1819 Albert Pike, Suite F, in Hot Springs.
