Photo Lab Services

More than just taking photos Keith French Photography offers many services that are ignored in the industry. My Photo Lab services include processing and scanning film, restoring old  photos, digitizing movies, scanning or printing slides, photographing art work, etc. Our combined imaginations, yours and mine, can be a powerful force in figuring out solutions for your image needs. Whether it’s finding old damaged photos in the attic or discovering there is 100’s or 1000’s of feet of movie film from your child hood. Contact us and we’ll find a solution for you. In many instances your needs may be a combination of services listed. While the list below is extensive, if you need something you are not seeing on this list, please pick up the phone or shoot over an e-mail. Chances are good we’ve already done it.

My photo lab is secure, safe and discrete.  Several prominent families in the midwest have hired me to digitize their family memories.  Pick up service is available to maintain a safe chain of custody. There are no short cuts to good quality.

    I wanted to take a minute to say "Thank You"! Tamara and I were very happy with the photos you took of our 2 newest agents Tracey & Michelle.

  • Ashley R., Geneva, IL

    I am a model and business professional. I worked with Keith today and couldn't be any more pleased. I was fascinated by his ability to use the lighting to his advantage.

  • David Mayo

    I had a business portrait that was 4 years old and was outdated. I decided to get a current portrait and to use Keith French because of the reputation of his work. Keith is very professional and easy to work with.

  • Esther F., St. Charles, IL

    I recommend Keith French Photography if you are looking for a portrait taken with real skill. Keith's photos are well composed and not crowded with too many cheap effects.

  • Tricia A., Rosemont, IL

    We hired Keith French Photography to capture a surgical skills field trip experience in our facility for middle school students. Keith did an excellent job capturing the entire event from beginning to end - from closeups to a large group shot in a not so well lit room.
