Genealogy and family history can be a fascinating hobby especially if you focus
beyond just collecting names and dates. Precious photograph, film, and
video memories become more interesting when this information is readily
accessible in easy to use digital format. Putting your family heritage,
memories, and ancestry into more modern easy to use digital media has the added
benefit of getting events, faces, and places of importance to the family on the
more viewable form of digital video disc (DVD) and digital video tape. We
want to help you preserve your family's memories and give you a more enjoyable
and viewable ability to revisit these memories.
We offer a range of services that
help you take advantage of digital imaging technology without you going through
the time and expense of buying lots of equipment and learning how to use it.
We will return all the original films, photographs, and documents you provided
us after we made digital image copies of them. Email or call us to obtain a

Although you
can’t edit film and video footage that wasn’t shot, editing your film and
video footage to remove unnecessary and bad camera work footage will result
in a more enjoyable video to watch. An edited video will capture attention
and tell a story better than hours and hours of unedited raw video.
Maximize your collection, create order from raw unedited film and video
footage that nobody is truly interested in watching into a personal
biography, life story, or other type of documentary or touching tribute that
is interesting and even perhaps exciting to watch.

documents, portraits, slides, and
photographs most likely hidden away in boxes or file cabinets.

enhance, and share the family memories and history you have collected.
Perhaps the results of your research has resulted in nothing more than
hand written or typed charts and index cards. Entering all this
information into a genealogy software program allows you to
cross-reference and update with new information much easier.

best thing you can do to prevent wear and tear to original
documents you return to frequently.

digital cameras and scanners to make exact copies to preserve old family
photographs and memorabilia such as an aging family Bible or the dairy
kept by a great great grandmother, or special needle work handed down
for generations. Once digitized computer software can be used to
enhance faded photograph or document and it is often possible to restore
a photograph by using editing software to fix scratches and tears. -
