Has anyone ever used them for headshot printing? If so, how was the quality? How would you compare it to someplace like Reproductions?

I have used Photoscan for over 10 years and will continue to use them. The price is right and any problems or corrections were taken care of fast. Last year they printed 500 color headshots and I thought they were to dark. They sent another 500 no problem. I have not used any other reproduction company for a very long time.

I used them when I was in Orlando, which was fine. They use lithographs. My attitude is that it doesn't matter, if most of the headshots are going to be thrown out, anyway.

IMO I'd go with a local reproduction company because they do next-day orders, and you don't have to wait for them to mail the first proof to be approved, and pay for and wait for shipping. Plus, at least at Reproductions, the price for reorders drops after you order the first batch. Price-wise it'll be pretty close, and I like the insurance of being able to pick up my order soon after I run out of headshots.

P.s. Lithos are more easily scratched than photos.

Hi mom2astar

They are in Florida. I'm sure they are fine, but full-time professional actors in A markets would not typically use them.

Good luck
