STEP 2:   Determine Placement of Logo's Photo's and Text

    Here are a few basic placement samples. Please keep in mind our cards can be completely customised to suit your needs and remember "Nothing is to hard to print on a card ".

STEP 3:   Choose Background Image / Colour

Preview & Approve your Design

   With a little bit of guidance from you on how you would like the card layout, we can then design a card to present to you for preview and approval. We will also take the time to ensure that you get what you want by allowing you to make any changes to the card design before we print the final cards.

   Proof sample card layout designs are available online! Email your company logo with a brief layout description. We can then email you a JPEG proof card for your preview and approval. Changes can be made before printing. Hardcopy proofs are also available with bulk purchases conditions apply.

We Print your ID Cards

    Upon receiving information, we scan or import photos and logos electronically merging and storing each card layout design. Personnel data (signatures if selected) are entered to produce full colour tamper proof photo ID cards delivered to you promptly.

(Turnaround time is approx 2-4 working days for small runs)

   View our helpful hips on taking your own ID Card portrait photographs,   alternatively we do provide an On-Site Photo Shoot service within the Melbourne CBD area.

   ALL you really need is either a digital camera or a scanner so you can send your photo’s and company logo via e-mail preferably in JPEG format. If you cannot digitally photography or scan your images then you can courier your hard copy photo’s to us and we can scan them in – for a small fee. Another suggestion is to save your photo’s to a floppy disc or burn photo’s to a CD.

How's that for service? 

Head and Shoulder photographs are perfect for ID Cards.

TIP 1:	Start with good lighting, turn on room lights or use sun light coming through a window avoiding shadows upon the subjects face especially when photographing out side.
TIP 2:	Always pause to consider the location before you position your subject and start shooting. Choose a comfortable location, allowing your subject to relax and fall into a natural pose.
TIP 3:	Background is important, sky blue backdrops work well and if possible keep the background consistent. Minimize blurry photos by using a tripod. Aim the camera and centre the individual to capture a head and shoulder shot.

Problem: Shadows behind subject

Solution: Position subject closer to the wall or backdrop, this will minimise any shadows.

Problem: Shadows on subjects face   

Solution: Shadows cast upon subjects face is generally caused by poor lighting conditions.

Problem: Subject is silhouetted Caused by the background being brighter than the subject in the foreground.

Solution: Avoid positioning subject in front of bright background. Use a consistent backdrop or wall.

Problem: Subject is too small  

Solution: Move closer to the subject.

Photos should be no smaller than the sample above.
