Family photos are often the most precious thing a household owns, and the most scattered. Boxes of prints and albums, slides in the attic, old digital cameras, memory cards, phones and laptops, cloud accounts nobody remembers the password to. I’ll help you rescue them, restore them and bring them together into one archive the whole family can enjoy, and that won’t be lost.
Start with a discovery call. Tell me what you have and what you’d like to end up with, and I’ll suggest the best approach. Every project is a fixed price, agreed up front.
Scanning prints, albums and slides
I’ll scan your prints, album pages, slides and negatives at archive quality, so they’re preserved for the long term and look good on today’s screens.
Restoration and retouching
Faded colours, scratches, tears, stains and creases can usually be repaired. I use AI tools carefully, with a light touch, so restored photos still look like the people in them, not like a filter.
Recovering photos from old devices
Old digital cameras, memory cards, USB sticks, phones and hard drives often hold photos nobody has seen in years. I’ll recover what’s there, including from cards and drives that no longer work properly where that’s possible. For failed drives and storage, see data and storage recovery.
One organised family archive
I’ll bring everything together into one well-structured library, organised by date, event and people, removing duplicates along the way. I’ll set it up so the family can browse and share it, and back it up properly so it’s never at risk again (see personal technology for backups).
