“I have had the privilege to have Alissa print some of my images for me. She is an extraordinary archival silver gelatin printer. She completely understands my work and negatives and is able to print exactly like I would print, with the information she is given on burning and dodging and what the total image expression is to be. My negatives are a challenge to print…she has not been hestitant to take on printing any of them. She is the only person I would trust with my negatives and I am sure those of you still using film will understand this.”

“If you have found your way to this website, congratulations, you have also found yourself a remarkable printer. Alissa is the real deal, she’s passionate about photography and incredibly skilled at printing. In so many ways Alissa has become my partner in my photography career. I shoot the photographs, confident that when I send her my negatives the prints I receive will be exactly what I want. She knows how I expose my film, she knows the contrast ratio I prefer and she knows when I am on a deadline and works with me so that my collectors and/or curators get the best prints possible as soon as possible. And on top of all that, she is a wonderful person and a pleasure to work with!”
