My friend had her baby's pictures lay outed into album. After few years, she decided to have another copy but she's skeptic if the studio still have their file. Just last week, I went to another studio. I heard a lady asking for her photo, taken 6 years ago, to be reprinted. I was surprised that the staffs managed to locate the file and reprint it.

Do photo studios really store files? or just few selected files? If they do, for how long?
 
That depends on the studio. I used to work for a guy who told customers he kept all his negatives on file for 5 years. But he actually kept every single negative he had ever taken. It depends on their storage space, and now that means digital storage space. Never hurts to ask, right?
