PHOTO SCANNING & VIDEO CONVERSION
Preserve the past, without the overwhelm
You can keep a lifetime of memories within reach and ready to share, without the stress of DIY scanning. Whether you’ve got old prints, slides, negatives, or VHS tapes, I’ll help you digitize and preserve the moments that matter most.
It’s not just clutter. It’s your family history.
You’re not alone. Most of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to begin. I make it simple, stress-free, and personal.
Because your memories deserve more than being tossed in a pile or forgotten in a drawer.
Maybe you inherited a box of photos you’ve been meaning to deal with for years. Maybe you’re worried about aging albums, fading prints, or a VHS collection you can’t even play anymore.
Or maybe it’s just... too much. Too many formats, too many decisions, too little time.

VIDEO CONVERSION CLIENT
“I thoroughly enjoyed working with Ashley from start to finish! She digitized my parent’s wedding video from a VHS to a flash drive and it turned out great. It was so fun to watch it with them and reminisce as they celebrate their 35th wedding anniversary this year.”
- MelissaEvery photo, handled with heart.
You won’t receive a dump of digital files you’ll never look at.
I organize your memories intentionally, so you (and future generations) can find what you need, when you want it.
No more digging through boxes, panicking over yellowing prints, or wondering where to start.
I’ll walk you through the whole process and make sure nothing meaningful gets lost along the way.

There's no deposit to get started. I digitize your items and send an invoice when the project is complete.
To give an estimate for photos, a 1 inch stack of prints is approximately 100 photos.

The digital files are returned on a USB flash drive.
One USB copy is included with each project; additional copies $10 each.

We can convert in batches,and payment is due at the completion of each batch. I will compile all batches to the USB drive to be delivered at the completion of the project.

I suggest high level categories. How the items come labeled will be the folder name for your digital collection. For example, if your items are labeled by the year in its separate containers, each container will be its own folder/file name by year. If you don’t have an organization method, that is okay. Any way you send them to me will be the way the digital files are labeled; no organization is required.
