Argentum Photo Lab is known in Hollywood as the home for digital photographers. Why? Simply because we care more about your growth in business and as an artist than any other lab. We pioneered the use of digital technology for headshots and as we continue to broaden our knowledge, we share it with you. We realize that photographers are vital to our lab's success and we are committed to developing a mutally rewarding partnership. We specialize in processing and printing your digital files. We can also work with your negatives to produce great headshots.

Many people believe that if they shoot digitally that the files are ready to print. In reality, even digital files need processing. All digital files need some amount of color correction and sharpening before they are ready for viewing on a screen or printing on paper. We perform these simple corrections for you.

All proof sheets, online proofs, 4x6 work prints and custom 8x10 prints have the photographers credit. We believe in promoting you, the photographer and helping your business grow.

Argentum was the first headshot lab to offer photographers online image viewing of all their images.

We will upload your photo shoot on our website for easy convenient viewing from the comfort of your home or office. You can order your prints from our online proofs. It's as simple as point and click. Your online proofsheets will be available for a month from the date they are uploaded.

Argentum was the first lab to offer "hard copy" physical proof sheets from digital files. These are oversized proofsheets 10in by 15in with the photographer's logo and information printed on each sheet. They are available in Color or B/W.

Our 4x6 work prints (in color or B/W) are great for helping actors narrow down which images they want to eventually have made into 8x10s. The work prints all have the photographers credit and the file number printed on the image. This helps identify which image they want enlarged.

We also offer 9x12 portfolio prints and various borders to choose from.
