It’s more than scanning photos. It’s saving your family’s legacy before time fades it away. Here’s why ScanMyPhotos has been trusted as your photo archivist since 1990.
When I was six, my dad wrapped his arms around me during a trip to Disneyland. It was the last photo we ever took together. Years later, I found it in a box, nearly lost to time. That photo sparked something powerful: the idea that no memory should fade away. That’s why ScanMyPhotos exists. It’s not a business. It’s a promise. Here’s why you can trust us with your family history.
