Need Help

[Canyon Hiker]

I am trying to calibrate my monitor to my print shops printer. The problem I am having is that when I match my pictures to there calibration prints, my pictures look way too dark on my monitor. The reason I am doing this is because my prints have been printing darker than what I see on my monitor.

Picture 1 looks correct (brightness-contrast) on my monitor. Picture 2 is after calibrating it to the calibration prints. Does #2 look to dark to you on your monitor? This will be a lot of help to me.

Thanks
