My boyfriend has some huge watercolors (30ish x 40ish) that he has been asked to turn into poster-sized prints. We're assuming they'll need to be photographed and then printed. Does anyone know of a good resource for this in Columbus that doesn't cost a ton of money?

Does anyone know of a good resource for this in Columbus that doesn't cost a ton of money?Figure you'll be wanting about 8000x6000 resolution on the image, find someone with a camera that can do take pictures larger than that.
You'll need to proper lighting (low watt bulbs in clamp lights, like 5 of them about 24" away from the image).
Getting them printed will cost you. You'll need to go to a commercial print shop capable of doing near photographic quality poster prints. I think some Staples offer that for about $30 per print.
That help at all?
This is sort of what I do for money these days except I don't go over 14" wide prints due to my printer's limitations.
