Digitization Only
Before they fade
into silence.
High-resolution scans of your photos, slides, negatives, and documents—handled by hand, returned in days.
Prints fade. Slides crack.
Hard drives fail.
Every year that passes, the images you can't replace grow a little harder to see—colors shift, paper yellows, emulsion flakes. Slides and negatives held up to the light show a different kind of damage: dust, mold, a hairline scratch across the one photo you wish you had.
Digitization doesn't just preserve the image. It makes it shareable, printable, searchable—alive again for the people who come after you.
Every format,
handled with care.
We've built our workflow around the fragile originals people actually have—the shoebox of loose prints, the carousel of Kodachrome slides, the manila envelope of documents too important to risk.

Simple from your end.
Careful on ours.
You send (or drop off) your originals
Ship your items to us with our prepaid label, or drop them off if you're local. We'll send a confirmation when they arrive.
We inspect, clean, and scan by hand
Each item is handled individually—no batch conveyor scanning. We clean dust and debris, set exposure per image, and capture at archival resolution.
You receive a private online gallery
We deliver a password-protected gallery where you can preview every image, download full-resolution files, and share with family—before we even ship your originals back.
Your originals come home
We package everything carefully and return it via tracked mail. Most orders are back in your hands within 7–14 business days of us receiving them.
Resolution that holds up
to any future print.
We scan at archival resolutions—600 dpi for documents, 1200 dpi for prints, 4000 dpi for film—so the files we deliver today will still be printable at full size twenty years from now, on whatever technology exists then.
Output is uncompressed TIFF for archival copies, high-quality JPEG for sharing, and we include color calibration targets so any future lab can match the original exactly.
What sets our digitization apart.
Every item handled individually
No automated feed. We set exposure and focus for each print, slide, or document. Your grandmother's overexposed snapshot gets the same attention as a professional portrait.
Your originals never leave our hands
We don't sub out to third-party scanning labs. Everything stays in-house, tracked by item, insured in transit.
Organized delivery, not a file dump
We name and organize files to match the physical order you sent them in. You get a logical folder structure, not 400 files named IMG_0001.
Color calibration included
Every scan is color-calibrated against a reference target. What you see in the gallery matches the original as closely as technology allows.
TIFF + JPEG, always
You receive both archival TIFFs (for long-term storage and printing) and compressed JPEGs (for sharing and everyday use). No up-charges for format choice.
Originals returned, guaranteed
Your physical items come back to you via tracked and insured shipping. We've never lost an original. We intend to keep that record.
