Photos tell the story of our lives and our family histories. When I am meeting with a client, it is common to see boxes of photos and slides as well as shelves filled with photo albums.
Organizing and preserving these photos accomplishes several goals – it frees up space for other things, it allows these photos to be shared among family members and most importantly, it stops the disintegration of these photos which have about 125 years of life.
If you are sitting with these photos and aren’t sure where to begin, we can help.
Silver Linings Transitions offers photo organization/digitzation of:
- Old photos
- Negatives
Slides - Hand-written letters
- Children’s Artwork
- Duplication of Old Album Pages
- …and more
For any services we don’t provide, we can connect you with the resources you need to duplicate and preserve these photos and films. Once your items are digitized, we can add keywords and identify faces so that you can more easily your digital photo collection.
Good, Better and Best Methods to Digitizing Photos
Good is DIY – use your own phone and take a photo of the photo, essentially scanning a copy of the photo onto your phone.
Better – using a scanner typically done by a big box retailer where the photos are fed through a machine.
Best – professional camera scanning. Images are scanned by hand in an office setting, using museum-grade archival techniques and equipment. This is the highest quality of scanning, so every tiny detail shows on your now, digitized photo. This is also the best option for older photos that may be fading.
