PHOTO PRESERVATION

Old photos.
New ways to enjoy them.

Bring the memories in your prints, albums, slides, and negatives into a digital collection you can enjoy and share.

Open family photo album with loose prints, mounted slides and a flat strip of developed negatives

Think of Standard as the finished photo you enjoy and share, and the Archival master as the negative you keep for future use. Archival includes your ready-to-enjoy digital files plus a preservation master for long-term archiving and future editing.

The details that matter

Preserve the handwriting, too. Add safely accessible photo backs for $0.15 each: a 300 ppi JPEG with the front’s filename followed by _back.

Thoughtful masters. Slide masters are 48-bit RGB TIFFs (16 bits per channel), saved before cosmetic restoration or sharpening. Negative masters are positive high-bit-depth TIFFs after inversion and basic color balancing, before cosmetic restoration or sharpening. Scan resolution describes the scan setting; usable enlargement depends on the original and captured detail.

Collections needing extra care. Glued, fragile, oversized or difficult albums and medium-format negatives are assessed and quoted individually. Detailed restoration of fading, tears and scratches is separately quoted. We scan developed film; we do not develop unprocessed film.

Simple pricing. A $25 minimum applies to standalone Photos orders and is waived when combined with paid Audio or Video conversion. Premium branded USB delivery starts at $29 (64 GB), plus applicable tax. Photo preservation counts toward the $200 complimentary local pickup threshold, calculated after discounts and before tax; USB, hosting and pickup fees do not count.

BEFORE YOU GET STARTED

A few good
questions.

Should I count albums, film strips or individual images?

Count individual photos or frames. Album pricing includes safe removal and reinsertion, so do not count the same image again as a loose print. Blank negative frames are not charged; final counts are confirmed at intake.

What if my album is fragile or the photos are glued in?

Please describe it before removing anything. Glued, fragile, oversized and difficult albums are assessed individually. Listed album prices apply to safely removable photos.

Can you preserve handwriting on the backs?

Yes, where safely accessible. Back scans are $0.15 each, at 300 ppi JPEG, with a filename matching the front plus _back. They are add-ons and do not increase the original-image count.

What does the minimum mean?

Standalone Photos orders have a $25 minimum. It is waived when combined with paid Audio or Video conversion. Photo preservation counts toward eligible complimentary local pickup; USB, hosting and pickup fees do not.

Do you develop film or restore damaged photos?

We scan developed film; we do not develop unprocessed film. Medium-format negatives and detailed restoration of fading, tears or scratches require individual assessment and a separate quote.
