How do I get more copies of wedding photos from proofs, when the photographer is dead and studio is closed?



The wedding was 11 years ago, photos were taken with film, received proofs of all photos. I now want to order more than the original package I had bought but the photographer is deceased and his studio closed. No one, as far as I know, has bought his inventory or his studio. I would like to get more pictures printed from the proofs but it wouldn't work when I took the proofs to Walgreens to scan and print. The guy at the photo counter was no help and I don't know what to do now. Thanks for any input.

I think the two best choices would be to -

1. Take the proofs to a professional photographer that offers copying, restoration and/or retouching services. This will usually get better quality results but is more expensive than..

2. Take it to a camera/photography store that offers copying and restoration services and ask them to make copy negatives and prints from them.

Hope this helps. Good luck Source(s): Experienced photographer. Former camera, electronics and photo services sales experience...
Check and see if he has any heirs in the area. If so, they might try and find your negatives.

You might try scanning your prints into your computer at home (if you have a flatbed scanner) and then saving them to a CD or DVD to take to Walgreens.

If you don't have a scanner you can pick up one at Office Depot or Best Buy. I use an HP Scanjet 4850 but there are probably newer models now.
Just a warning, enlarging a print from a smaller print doesn't always have the best result. The pictures can lose detail.
