This is the first I have heard of anyone having such a problem. When I
had my headshots done the photographer provided me with the "original"
......Here in NY they know that you will be sending out for 500 or so
copies.....Photographers are too busy taking pictures to want to bother
copying them as well. I went to a lab that handles actors photos. They
did an 8x10 negative and a postcard size one as well. Whenever I need
photos to send out they make up an order for me. A model friend of mine
sends out to a place in Canada swearing they do the best work for the
least money. Everyone has their favorite place. NY is full of them.
Perhaps you happened on the wrong one in your area. In acting and
modelling copying headshots is indispensable and very much an
every day fact of life. (Copyrighted magazine photos would be another
story.) Have you got any actor or model friends who might advise you? If
I can help in any way contact me directly.
All the best,
Alexandra
