We use the same method of digitizing as the National Archives Museum, adhering to FADGI (Federal Agency Digital Guidelines Initiatives) compliance. No matter what your digitizing needs are, from old scrapbooks, documents, slides, negatives, film reels, video tapes and audio reels, we can convert them into digital files to be stored on a thumb drive, external hard drive and in the cloud of choice for easy access.
If your print or digital photos are in disarray, we can organize them for you for easy searchability. Whether you just need some guidance to do it yourself or need it all done for you, we have the solution, experience and best equipment for you to preserve, enjoy, safeguard and share your memories for generations to come.
