Our Technology, Research and Development.

 

Key to your success in handling BIG photography Clients and Events is the technology you use to manage the business, capture the images, process the images in preparation for printing, transmit the images to the photofinishing lab and handle any subsequent Customer Service associated with the order.  You must be able to do all this quickly, efficiently and accurately, as every customer’s order can be different.  PortraitEFX has you covered with all the software, technology and tools you’ll need to operate a high-volume photography business with a minimum of production work required.
