How does Special Photo Effects work?

Simply scan the image and email it to us. Indicate what type of special effects you would like done to your photo/photos. We will then get back with you with our estimate. You review and accept the cost estimate, and make the advance payment by check, money order, or through Pay Pal. Upon receipt of payment, we will begin work. After we have finished enhancing your image (generally 3 to 5 days, depending on workload), we will place it up on a secured webpage for you to examine up close with a special flash program.

Finally, if the image is not yet as you would like it to be, we will incorporate any changes and post the new image up on the secured webpage for your approval. If we cannot succeed in producing an image to your satisfaction, Special Photo Effects will refund your money within a 30 day period.

Once you have approved the sample, we will email the fully restored proof and any original photos to you, and mail you a high-quality print.
