What, How & Why: A Closer Look - Featuring Dorrie Rifkin

At iPrintfromHome.com, we work with artists and photographers from across the United States and Canada. We're inspired everyday by the images that they send to us and by the stories they share.

In our "What, How & Why" interview series, we take a closer look at some of these fascinating people.

We've asked each participating artist or photographer three simple questions:

1. What do you do?
2. How do you do it?
3. Why do you use iPrintfromHome.com?

Please read on to find out more about Dorrie Rifkin.











Dorrie Rifkin
Artist
Englewood, NJ

What do you do?
Depending on the moment, I am a freelance art director, watercolor artist, and teacher. Painting is the most fun and infuses me with energy. I fell in love with watercolors when I was a kid and the passion grows more and more each year.

How do you do it?
Multitasking. My subjects are from my adventures and life experiences. I live close to New York City so many of my paintings are inspired by city scenes that I photograph. I put the photos into photoshop to create a stronger design (years working as an art director serve me well here). Then I do a tight drawing (here is where a strong paper comes in handy). Next a visit to the fridge for a snack and Diet Coke. Then the fun starts.


Why do you use iPrintfromHome.com?
I've used iPrintfromHome for a long time. I sell high quality prints in my etsy store.
Let me tell you a story. I was married in July so this is dear to my heart. I just received a thank you note from a customer that purchased a print of a painting I did of New York City's Lincoln Center for her husband to celebrate their wedding aniversay. He proposed to her in front of Lincoln Center. Cool right? Well that was the third thank you I've received from clients that proposed to their mates in front of Lincoln Center.

What a great life!

Printing Options - Paper Surfaces and Printing Processes

At iPrintfromHome.com, we offer 8 different types of prints. We're regularly asked to explain the difference between the various options. Please read on to learn more about the Printing Processes we use and the choices you have when you order prints from iPrintfromHome.com.

We use two different printing processes at iPrintfromHome.com: (1) Photographic Printing and (2) Giclee or Photo Inkjet printing.

Photographic Prints
Our Photographic Prints are traditional Photographic Prints. They are printed by exposing light sensitive paper with light and then running the paper through a chemical process. There is no ink involved in the process. These prints can be described as Silver Halide Photographic Prints, Chromogenic Photographic Prints or C-Prints.


We proudly use Kodak Professional Supra Endura VC Digital Paper to print all of our Photographic Prints. This paper offers an extraordinary color gamut and state-of-the art image stability. Photographic Prints are available in four different surfaces: Glossy, Lustre, Matte and Metallic.


Giclee or Photo Inkjet Prints
Our Giclee and Photo Inkjet prints are made by applying ink to paper. We use Epson Ultrachrome professional archival inks to produce our Giclee and Photo Inkjet Prints. These prints are available in Somerset Velvet, Canvas, Glossy & Lustre.

Cost Difference Explained
Many people assume that the higher price of the Giclee and Photo Inkjet Prints means a higher quality print. However, the answer actually has to do with production costs.

The Photographic Printing process has been highly optimized for a digital workflow, meaning that it takes a lot less hand holding to make a Photographic Print than it does to make a Giclee or Photo Inkjet Print. We also don't need to spend any money on inks because there is no ink involved in the Photographic Printing process. Whenever we save money, we always pass those savings on to you in terms of lower prices.

Archival Quality Prints
According to Kodak's website, you can expect Kodak Supra Endura Photographic Prints to last 100 years in typical home display, 200 years in dark storage, and 1 to 5 years in commercial display.

According to Whilhelm Research, you can expect our Giclee and Photo Inkjet Prints to last over 60 years in typical home display, over 100 years in dark storage, and more than 30 years if displayed unframed.

Choices, Choices
Choosing the best finish for a particular purpose is really a matter of personal preference. The best way to learn about the different finishes is to actually see them for yourself. That's why we include our Paper Sampler and Calibration Kit with every customer’s first order (unless the order is a drop shipment to a client!).

We also regularly see customers ordering the same image on a few different surfaces to see for themselves how their images are reproduced by the various printing processes.

Drop Shipping Services

iPrintfromHome.com is pleased to offer drop shipping services so that you can send your orders directly to your clients. All you need to do is select “Drop ship to my client/friend” when you select your shipping address during the order placement process.

If you select to have your order drop shipped, your order will be shipped without an invoice or any promotional materials. We will also remove our company name from the return address and send your package in a plain mailer or box without any identifying markings.

For Photographic Prints, we typically include "backprinting" on the back of each print, which includes the name of your file (if the file name is not too long) as well as your iPrintfromHome.com order number. If you do not want backprinting on your prints, please send us an email immediately after your order has been placed to let us know and we will gladly accommodate your request.

We're always looking to improve our services and many of our improvements come as a direct result of customer requests. If you have any suggestions, please don't hesitate to contact us. We'd love to hear what you have to say.

As always, thank you for your continued support of iPrintfromHome.com.

Thanks,
the iPrintfromHome.com team

Give a little bit of yourself

You've spent a lot of time creating beautiful images. You've poured your heart and soul into your work. This holiday season, when you're thinking of all the people you're thankful for, consider giving them a little piece of yourself. Nothing could be better.

Happy Holidays!

From,
the iPrintfromHome.com team

VIDEO: Welcome to iPrintfromHome.com

Hi. I'm Sara Campos and I'd like to welcome you to iPrintfromHome.com. My father started this company in 1979. We began as a darkroom rental lab servicing artists and photographers who wanted to have more control over their printing.

Today, operating as iPrintfromHome.com, we're still basically doing the same thing that we were doing back when the Campos Photography Center first opened its doors. But now, instead of coming to our location to rent our darkrooms and print your work, you can do it all from the comfort of your home with a little help from a computer and the internet. That's why we call it "I print from home".

As my Dad says, "Here we go again, a little older, a little wiser, helping you image your imagination, anytime, anywhere."

We know how important each individual customer is to our business and we do our best to not only meet your expectations, but to exceed them. At iPrintfromHome.com, we provide you with a high quality product that you value, with consistency that you trust and with customer service you can rely on to help make things right if you run into a problem.

At iPrintfromHome.com, we've been working with artists and photographers for over 30 years. We understand what you're looking for - take a look around our site, check out what we have to offer and then give us a try - we'd love to help you image your imagination.

To get started, go to iPrintfromHome.com and click on "How do I Begin?"

Still Standing After All These Years – 25% Off Mounted Photographic Prints

31 years ago, almost to the day, my dad (George Campos) opened Campos Photography Center - a darkroom rental lab for artists and photographers. His customers were people who wanted to have more control over their printing but didn't want to go to a custom lab, didn't have access to their own darkroom, or maybe didn't have the money to invest in creating their own facilities at home.



Today, operating as iPrintfromHome.com, we're still basically doing the same thing that we were doing back when the Campos Photography Center first opened its doors. But now, instead of coming to our location to rent our darkrooms and print your work, you can do it all from the comfort of your home with a little help from a computer and the internet. That's why we call it "I print from home".

As my Dad says, "Here we go again, a little older, a little wiser, helping you image your imagination, anytime, anywhere."

What's with the name?

We've been hearing recently that people think the name of our company - iPrintfromHome.com - is a little strange and they're not exactly sure what it means. So today, I'm here to clear up the confusion and answer the burning question:

What's with the name?

The answer is rooted in our company history:


30 years ago almost to the day, my Dad (George Campos) opened Campos Photography Center - a darkroom rental lab for artists and photographers. His customers were artists and professional photographers who wanted to have more control over their printing but didn't want to go to a custom lab, didn't have access to their own darkroom, or maybe didn't have the money to invest in creating their own facilities at home.

The company evolved through the years to become a strong regional custom lab. With the advent of digital photography, the business moved in another direction. In the fall of 2001, my brother (Christian Campos) moved back to Buffalo and he and my dad launched iPrintfromHome.com - an online division of Campos Photography Center, which is now our main focus.

Operating as iPrintfromHome.com, we're still basically doing the same thing that we were doing back when the Campos Photography Center first opened its doors. But now, instead of coming to our location to rent our darkrooms and print your work, you can do it all from the comfort of your home with a little help from a computer and the internet. Hence the name: iPrintfromHome.com

New Customer Promotion

Now Offering Canadian Shipping!

iPrintfromHome.com is now shipping to Canada!

We get regular requests to ship to Canada, so we are super excited to begin offering the service. Please click here to review our shipping options.

You might be thinking, "What's the big deal? Why are these guys at iPfH so excited about Canadian shipping?"

Well, to tell you truth, the fact that we were NOT shipping to Canada was a real bummer. We are located in Tonawanda, NY which is located just north of Buffalo, NY. As you can see from this map, we're pretty darn close to Canada (click on the map to see it more clearly):
We are basically right on the Canadian border.

Not only are we close to Canada, but more specifically, we are REALLY close to Toronto. Toronto is a super cool city with a great art scene. This world-class city sits just over an hour and a half's drive away from iPrintfromHome.

We get regular requests from people in Toronto and Montreal looking for a company to help them create prints of their work. As you can imagine, it was pretty frustrating that we didn't have the systems in place to offer Canadian shipping, especially since we're so close. We've even had Canadians drive over the Peace Bridge to pick-up their orders from our location.

So that's why we're so excited about this. We can finally ship orders to our neighbors to the north and we won't feel so silly saying we can't. :o)

This is another example of a new service being offered as a direct result of customer requests. I can't stress enough how important customer feedback is to us. We shape our business based on what our customers want and need. So if you have an idea, or a wish, or a need that you think we might be able to help you with, don't hesitate to send us an e-mail or give us a call.

Canada, welcome to iPrintfromhome.com!
