Adobe Photoshop™


We use Adobe Photoshop exclusively for all of our photo retouching work. Although it’s pricey, over the years it paid off. Subsequent upgrades have been somewhat affordable and worthwhile. However, with Adobe’s aggressive upgrading policy, we are leaning more towards Gimp as a superior open-source alternative.

Wacom 

Bamboo Tablet

This is a less-expensive, smaller version of the Intuos. However, the accuracy and stability—such as uncontrolled cursor movement—made us go with the Intous model above.

These scanners by Epson are affordable, yet high-quality. We rely on the less expensive models for those times we need to travel and scan photos owned by customers and relatives who are afraid of sending them through the mail. The Epson Scan software is easy to use, with settings for beginners and experts. Regarding OCR, 35mm slide and negative scanning, most of the scanners can handle them with ease.
