ACTUAL TESTIMONIALS FROM NEOHIOPAL MEMBERS

"I can't even look at my old headshots now that I have yours.  I was having
so much fun in the studio with and Tamara (makeup artist) I didnt want to
leave.  You did my husband's headshots and I was jealous.  Now i have my
own!! These are much better than the ones i've gotten in cleveland before.
MARCIA DARBY, ACTOR

I'm still a student so i dont have money to burn.  Thank you for giving me
the best headshots ever at a price that i could afford.
SARA VITULLO, STUDENT

I'm just getting started and hadn't worked much.  Since I got my new
headshot, I have booked a bunch of jobs.  Thanks Eric!!!!

The photos arrived today and i absolutely loved them!!! Thank you...thank
you!!!  And i am so excited because I have a lot to choose from.  When i

In what is certain to become a hot topic of debate here and on the yahoo website, I am going to respond to this post.

Internegatives (duplicate negatives) can be made easily by a number of methods.  As a former Ritz Camera Centers manager I know that we used to do this all the time.  The service was relatively inexpensive and took only a couple of days.  The original was sent out, the negative made and prints could be easily made from that negative at the same time or at any time after that.  Direct digital copying is also available on site at most photo stores these days.  The initial print is of better quality than an internegative, but the prints don't last as long.  This process is generally more expensive.

The biggest problem I have found with having internegatives commercially made this way is that they are of inferior quality.  You're making a copy of a copy.  Sometimes there's dust on the copying lens that interferes with the photo.  Sometimes the lighting just isn't right and you end up with glare in the wrong places. Ritz Camera, Costco, even Walgreens can send these out for you.  For the best quality try Merrill David or Dodd Camera in downtown Cleveland.

Now for the controversial part, and I apologize in advance to anyone who already knows this; there are others out there who do not and can benefit from reading this:   Legally you do not hold the copyright to your photographs or proofs.  That's right, even though it's a photograph of you, the photographer holds the copyright and is the only person who can authorize having copies made.  Yes, you paid a sitting fee.  Yes, you bought the package.  Yes, you bought the proof sheet.  But you did this with the implied understanding that you would return to the photographer for further business by purchasing more copies.  This is how professional photographers make their living.

My advice would be to contact your original photographer and request their rates for making duplicate prints.  If their rates are too high, try to negotiate a lower rate because you're a starving artist.  If that does not work, then get their permission IN WRITING to duplicate the photos yourself by other means.  None of the places I've mentioned above will touch your photographs without WRITTEN PERMISSION from the photographer to make copies.

I have just gotten new headshot proofs and am looking
for a service here in Cleveland similar to Duplicate
Photo back in my hometown of L.A.  With Duplicate
Photo, if you bring in an actual headshot print (NOT
the negative), they make a "photocopy negative" from
the print and can then make 50, 100, 200 or 500 copies
at very inexpensive rates.  Does anyone know of such
services here in Northeast Ohio?

Thank you,
Eric Oswald
