My photo career began as a hobby in the late 60's, building telescopes and learning astro-photography, processing film in a darkened bathroom in our New Hampshire house. I joined the Marine Corps in 1972 and served 6 years, first as a parachute rigger, then as a photographer. Upon leaving the Corps I started work as a custom printer in Orange County, Claifornia, and soon was managing one of the largest labs on the west coast. This experience gave me a solid foundation in film technology.

 

My first digital imaging experiences go back to 1982 when the technology was just getting off the ground. With this background, and a love for both technology and film, I started Gamma Tech in 1991. The goal was to provide quality restoration services to photo labs here in Albuquerque. At that time I did not do my own film recording, and quality was always a serious issue. In 1992 I started a bulletin board service to facilitate file transfers with our local clients.

 

In 1994 I purchased the first film recorder in order to maintain higher quality control. This is about when bulletin boards were suddenly replace by the internert and gammatech.com was born. I have added and updated equipment and services over the years, some of which is documented in our history page. Working with planetariums since 1996 has created a highly refined and accurate level of quality that I'm very proud of. I strive to provide that same level of quality to all of my customers.

 

My focus is on quality, with speed, price and customer service all a close second. I currently operate using 4 Agfa Alto 16k film recorders shooting film from 35mm through 8x10 inches. I also provide quality film scanning services using either Nikon scanners or the Imacon 949. I am supported by one the best film processing labs in the US, Digi-Graphics, located in Fort Collins, Colorado. In December 2009 they completed an upgrade and move to a new location, further improving their already high quality services.

 

I invite your input. Most of this site is a direct result of customer comments. Please contact me at any time to let me know what I can do better.

 

My Guarantee: I will reshoot any work that is not acceptable to you, or refund the full amount of your order upon return of all materials to Gamma Tech. I work hard to provide the highest quality product in the industry. I ask only that you be honest and timely with any complaints.
