Digital Photo Benefits: Why Digitize Slides, Prints, &
Negatives with our Scanning Services?
Our
lives are filled with journeys, not only geographic but
with cherished emotional experiences. Life is simply a journey
we take, and our photographic history chronicles that journey.
You may be surprised to learn that those
cherished photos stuffed away in that shoe box in the closet
are beginning to fade away. Unfortunately photo prints,
slides, and negatives are not permanent. Even the most reliable
storage methods cannot prevent your traditional photos,
slides, and negatives from aging, and eventual fading and
discoloration. If you could relive
your wedding day with the click of a mouse, would you? If
you could preserve your baby's toothless grin forever, would
you? Our scanning services make these things possible! Click here to learn more about how our services can convert your old media into digital format.

PRESERVE:
Our scanning and archiving services provide a means to
preserve those precious memories with permanence in
digital form.
Digital images do not fade, discolor, get scratched, or torn.
Neither are they adversely effected by acids or materials
present
in papers & plastics. Digital images can be reproduced
or copied from one medium to another with no loss of quality
or change to the original. Do digital images last forever?
If cared for properly it is possible to ensure that your
photo collection can weather the ages in perfect form.
While digital storage mediums, CDs Hard-Disks or any other
medium,
do not last forever, the images stored on these devices
can be moved to new media with no loss of quality, ensuring
that your digital images can be passed down from generation
to generation in perfect condition. Universities, museums,
and libraries typically archive important information to
high quality CD-Rs, keep two copies at different locations,
and at intervals based on CD-R's life span check the disks
to ensure they are in working order. At the first sign
of
data loss the information stored on the disks would be
copied to a new medium, whatever is the standard at that
time,
then the process will be repeated. We use Mitsui Archival
Quality CD-R media that is estimated to last up to 300
years.
Mitsui CD-Rs provide longevity and durability far in excess
of conventional CD-R media.
ORGANIZE:
Never dig through piles of photos again! It's easy to find
the picture you're looking for when your photos are

format. We'll organize your collection as you see fit.
Our contact sheets make finding that perfect shot a
piece of
cake. Today's software will let you view all your photos
with ease. You can even categorize your new digital
photos
by date, year, month, person, or event. Finding a group of photos only
takes a few clicks with Adobe® Photoshop® Album.
EDIT:
Like to scrapbook? or get creative? Be the master of your
personal digital darkroom. Digital Photos are easy to
edit
and be creative with. Make flaws magically disappear, remove
a distracting object, or paint your grandfathers face
on
Mt. Rushmore with Adobe® Photoshop® Elements. The
only limit is your imagination.
