Optional Add On Services
Elite Concierge Expert Service
+ $12.95 per order
Concierge expert to seamlessly oversee your order, from start to finish.
Express Scanning
+ Extra 10¢ per scan
Add the Express Scanning service that treats you to special privileges and custom services throughout the scanning process so your order is professionally scanned as the next order in line regardless of when it arrived. Otherwise, your order will be processed shipped out when completed, typically within 4 to 8 weeks of receipt. Adds 10¢ per scan. (Final completion time based on size of order.)
Scanning in Order
+ 7¢ per scan
Most popular add-on. If you need your negatives to be scanned in a specific order, you must order the 'Scan in Order' service. Ordering the 'Scanning in Order' service will let the scanning technician know that you need to have your negatives scanned in the order you have specified. NOTE: We will attempt our best to keep your negatives in the same order for return shipping but this is not guaranteed. This service is only for scanning your negatives in the specified order.
Image Rotation

Order a Photo Index Book for $95.50 per 1,000 negatives scanned. Pages are double sided and bound in a hard cover book with 25 images per 8½'' x 11'' page. Image rotation is NOT included with an order of the Photo Index Book from negatives scanned. Additional copies of the same book are $69.95 per 1,000 scans.

Some of your family’s earliest photographic memories and milestones are most likely contained in 35mm film negatives. Let us preserve them for you in digital format before they’re lost to time.

Simply choose 2,000 or 4,000 DPI JPEG scans, and take advantage of our new lower prices of 47 cents per frame for 2,000 dpi or 89 cents per frame for 4,000 dpi.

Your negatives will be individually hand-scanned onsite at our facility in Irvine, California and handled with the greatest of care by trained professionals to ensure the highest quality digital format possible.

Note that negative strips must be at least 2 negatives long. DO NOT FOLD YOUR NEGATIVES OR CUT 35MM FILM INTO SINGLE FRAMES, or they will be unscannable.

Packing Instructions

If your negatives are in sleeves, great! They will be protected from damage during shipping. If they are not in sleeves, we recommend placing them in a standard envelope to prevent damage. DO NOT FOLD YOUR NEGATIVES OR CUT 35MM FILM INTO SINGLE FRAMES. This will render them unscannable.

Since 1990, we have preserved millions of precious memories. Send us your negatives today, and start enjoying them in digital format within a few short weeks!
