Karen Bates Baby & Child Photography is proud to offer “Pro Print,” a professional, archival printing service that uses the best commercial photographic printer and papers on the market today. And the difference in quality shows!



Professional Printing…

Her professional, state-of-the-art lab gives you unrivaled, perfectly calibrated color, gray scale, contrast and print clarity, insuring you the highest quality custom enlargements available.

Each print is personally – and meticulously – retouched by Karen using Photoshop®.

After carefully retouching any boo-boos, she crops the image to the size you request, then corrects for color, contrast, brightness, warmth and sharpness in every enlargement. Her attention to detail and years of experience shine through every print!


…On Professional Paper

Karen uses only top-of-the-line photographic paper, so you’ll notice richer saturation and a gorgeous, glossy finish.

Always acid-free, her prints are museum-quality and archival, guaranteed to last for generations to come (200 years, to be exact!)

What’s more, you can choose to have any image printed in black & white or color. It’s your choice!

For color prints, she uses Kodak Royal Glossy®, the best professional color paper available. Karen loves its soft, smooth, realistic flesh-tone reproduction and enhanced detail from highlights to shadows.

For your black and white prints, she uses Ilford Black & White®, the industry’s best. It’s Karen’s favorite for that classic black & white look with finely tuned grays, intense blacks and pure whites.
