How to Make Your Photos Last a Lifetime and More by Digitizing All

Posted on February 25, 2020 by

Prepare Now For Wildfires and Hurricanes Before Natural Disasters Wipeout Your Family History


Family photos are priceless. Like a memory, a photograph is a frozen moment, stolen from the grasp of time. A collection of photos is a visual history of your family, your friends, and your life.


Most of us cherish our photos. That’s why we keep them safely stored in the attic, the basement, under our beds or in a drawer. If we’re really ambitious, we put our favorites on display, either on the wall or in photo albums or scrapbooks. But are they really safe? As a photo restoration and photo retouching company, we deal with thousands of important photos that have been damaged due to a wide variety of unforeseen problems. Photo restoration is something to remedy problems that we’d all be better preventing.


If you read the previous article, “What You Don’t Know CAN Hurt Your Photos,” you know some of a photograph’s natural enemies. Read on to find out where and how to store your photos.

KEEP THESE VALUABLES IN A COOL, DRY PLACE


Uninsulated attics and basements are the wrong answer. The extreme temperature and humidity swings in an attic will make your photographic paper crack, and the moisture of a basement is often off the relative humidity scale. In case of disaster, the basement is the first place that gets flooded, and the attic is bound to go up in smoke.


The key is to find a cool, dry area of your home that is protected from violent changes of temperature. The ideal climate for photos is below about 68° Fahrenheit and under 50% relative humidity.


If that sounds a bit like a safe-deposit box at your bank, you may be right. Especially for one-of-a-kind photos, there is no safer place. But it’s not a practical choice. Your photos will be safe if you store them in a cool, dry area of your home.

SHOWING THEM OFF


Most of us love to share our photos. We use them to decorate our homes, offices, and cars, or we put them in scrapbooks and photo albums that are easy to show off. But we need to be careful.


Before you hang that photo on the wall, make sure it’s safe from the sun. Direct exposure to sunlight can cause your photographs to fade in just a few years. If there’s no other option, you can either buy a special filter to protect the image or just hang a copy on the wall and keep the original safely stored.


If you’re into scrapbooking, be highly selective. Most photo albums should be avoided like the plague. Even some materials marketed as ‘archival’ contain acids, adhesives, rubbers or other materials that will eventually destroy your photos.


If preservation is more important than presentation, consider storing your photographs in special envelopes, safe plastic sleeves or an enameled-steel storage cabinet. Those treasures are worth the effort and expense.

What is the best photo scanning service?

Posted on February 12, 2020 by

The ScanMyPhotos Review


scanguy4 300x94 - What is the best photo scanning service?Each day we receive messages of appreciation for digitizing customers’ photos. Many are listed here, yet, it is unusual to have someone take so much time to personalize their entire experience.


Earning raves like this one below is the foundation for why we love what we have been doing for three decades.


I just wanted to say that this was not the first time I used ScanMyPhotos, but I looked around at all the options to see if I could find a better quality/price point.


After checking out several companies in a well-researched Top Five (yours was included), I ended up back with you again. I didn’t need fast service, I didn’t need to keep the photos in any order, and I had several sizes that were close in size but not the same size. With your service, I can bundle those that match together and they don’t all have to be exactly the same.


When I took the box to the postal service, I mentioned to the woman waiting on me that I had JUST found out that Costco offers this service and I didn’t even check them out as an option. I told her I probably could have saved some money and her reply was, “Oh well, you’re doing it this way. Just let it go.”


BUT…BEST PART EVER…coming back home, I investigated what Costco offers and found that their price-per-photo was significantly higher than yours, AND for that, they were offering no “Soap” color restoration service, AND they were only accepting a select number of sizes that needed to be exact.


Bottom line: I think your service is THE BEST and I am one happy customer. For quality and price, I wouldn’t think of using any other service.


Feel free to use this testimonial any way you wish.
