Digitisation
Artwork Photography & Scanning
If you’re serious about making Fine Art Prints of your artwork, starting with anything less than an outstanding file is simply not an option.
At Kilford Studios, we provide comprehensive artwork digitization services through two methods: professional artwork photography and flatbed scanning.
As Portugal’s only fine art print studio equipped with the revolutionary Fujifilm GFX100s II medium format camera system, we offer unparalleled quality in artwork documentation.

Professional Artwork Photography
For originals A2 or larger in size, we capture your artwork in our professional photography studio using the new extraordinary Fujifilm GFX100s II medium format system, delivering exceptional 102-megapixel files, or up to 400-megapixels with Pixel Shift technology.
As the only fine art print studio in Portugal offering this advanced technology, we serve artists, galleries, and museums with exceptional quality – whether for fine art printing, digital archiving, or both.
We provide you with a print-ready, high resolution 16-bit file that is meticulously color matched to your original.
Artwork Photography Packages
We offer tailored artwork photography pricing: €65+VAT per piece for 1-2 artworks, and discounted tiered packages for 3, 5, and 10 pieces. Additional artworks falling between packages are charged at the lower package rate. For larger collections, contact us for a personalized quote.

Artwork Scans
We’ll scan your artwork up to A3+ size and provide you with a high resolution, colour corrected file that matches your original. For any editing beyond colour matching to your original (i.e dust and scratch cleanup, background removal etc), please view our hourly rates.
In our extensive experience however, most originals don’t need more work than minor colour correcting (included in price).
