How Our Process WorksWe use a 6-step process to take you from photo madness to picture perfect order!
CHAT
The first step is a conversation.
During your free 30-minute consultation, we will ask you how and where your photos are currently stored, what you like and don’t like about your current system, and what a great photo organizing system would look like to you. Finally, we will talk about what services we can offer to help you.
1
PLAN
Next, we take a comprehensive inventory of your entire photo collection.
Based on many factors, including the condition of your photos, their formats, locations, and of course, the quantity, we customize a photo management plan for you based on your needs and goals.
2
COLLECT
Physical photos: All photos are brought back to our location near Denver. If you are local, we can pick them up or they can also be shipped to us from anywhere.
Digital photos: We collect all of your photos onto one hub. If you live in the Denver metro area, this can be done in person, but we are also able to work remotely on your computer from any location worldwide!
3
ORGANIZE
Physical photos: Before physical photos can be scanned & digitized, they must be organized. You can do this on your own or we can do it for you. Once this is done, we digitize your library using professional-grade camera scanning equipment to ensure the highest quality scans possible. The photos are rotated and cropped, are batch-processed for basic color and tone correction and dust removal, are renamed with dates and keywords, and are organized into a searchable folder structure.
Digital photos: After we collect all of your digital photos into one location (hub), we remove duplicates, rename files with dates and keywords, and organize them into a searchable folder structure.
We can also add information (metadata) to your photo files such as facial recognition and location tagging to make it easier to search for specific photos.
4
SAVE
We save your newly organized digital library to an external hard drive. Then we show you how to continue to preserve and protect your library using the 3-2-1 method
(3 backups, 2 different types of media, 1 located off-site). We also offer maintenance plans to help you with this in the future.
