Hey Marta,

The lab I use (KC Color, for those in the Tulsa area) uses studio type lighting and takes a slide picture of the painting. From that slide I can go to any number of other processors and get prints for scanning on my own scanner or have them create an image on disk or CD.

Maybe we're just lucky. I do know of at least one more locally that will do the same thing. First slide $7.50 second $3.50, then the cost of prints.

Maybe you could call a studio photographer. Bring them some good low speed slide film. Kind of a professional courtesy thing. At the same time do a pitch about your portraits. It's always good to have a good studio photographer that you can call for different reasons.
