Thanks for asking!
First, I'm going to assume that your original photograph has an actual
resolution of 72 dpi. And that you wish to increase the resolution to
300 dpi or better. For print work, it's also often better to convert
images to CYMK rather than RGB color.
"RGB, CMYK, JPG, EPS, TIFF, DPI and Image Size" explains, and
illustrates the conversion from digital image to print image process
from start to finish. Whether you choose to do it yourself, or have a
professional handle the conversion, it's useful to understand how the
process works.

PROFESSIONAL GRAPHIC ARTISTS
**********************************************************************
A professional graphic artist can perform the image conversion for
you, and will likely be able to further enhance the image, should it
lose some of its sharpness or definition in the process. I've listed
three well-qualified graphic artists, in three countries, on two
continents, since I do not know where you are located. In any case,
you should be able to work via a e-mail and/or postal mail or courier.
