Getting Organized
The vast majority of people have their photos trapped in storage — never to be seen again. From digital devices to a jumble of boxes in the basement or attic, precious memories are often captured, but never shared.
With Your Photo Helper you can stop the tragic cycle of “click and forget.” We’ll help you identify the best storage system for you: one you can easily access and maintain. That way, if fire or other disaster should strike, your photos and memories can be backed up and safe.
Your free consultation will include:
- Discovering the locations and condition of your stored photos
- Reviewing your ideal uses:
- Framed displays or picture books as gifts
- video or slide shows to share with a crowd,
- records of the stories rooted in your family history
- Creating a plan to make it happen—one that fits your style, skill and budget
Whether you just need a few tips to get you started, coaching to keep you on track, or assistance with sorting and organizing, Your Photo Helper is there. But, if you’d prefer handing us the entire job, we can do that too.
Preserve for now and for the future
Technology has its advantages, and its down side — it’s always changing. So are the ways we need to manage and preserve our older media.
Photos, if stored properly in archival safe albums and storage boxes will last for generations, but they are still vulnerable to fires and other disasters. Slides, movie reels and VHS tapes have a shorter “shelf life” and are basically obsolete. All of these need a back-up system to safeguard against damage and loss.
Your Photo Helper provides a variety of services to ensure your memories can be viewed with today’s technology, as well as several options for a secure back up system.
Time is of the essence. No need to worry about the current state of your photos and videos. The real tragedy would be to leave those irreplaceable treasures vulnerable to damage and complete loss.
Book a free consultation today! Your Photo Helper can assist or advise you on a number of preservation options, including:
- Photo restoration
- Photo scanning
- 35mm slides & negatives converted to digital
- movies and video digitized
- children’s artwork and memorabilia
- digital archival
Share and Celebrate
This is what makes the work of organizing and preserving all those portraits, selfies, vacation pics and video shots worthwhile. Photos, in digitally created memory books, slideshows and other keepsakes, are the best and most effective way to strengthen family bonds, establish a narrative, or simply start a conversation.
- Imagine the joy and laughter prompted by a slideshow or video that documents how two individuals came to be the bride and groom you’re celebrating now.
- Anticipate the pride and sense of belonging that comes from celebrating the generational milestones in your family history.
- Relive the joy and discovery of another year of friendship, parenthood or life with a great grandma or uncle.
Nothing makes a more thoughtful or meaningful gift than sharing the moments of a life in ways that words can’t do alone. Young and old, alike, benefit from a sense of belonging and self-esteem when they are allowed to discover and explore their own family narrative. From Traditional photo albums or digital books to slideshows & DVDs, calendars, prints and other photo gifts, the possibilities are endless.
So, where do you start? How much do you include? What format is best (digital book, framed prints, albums or slideshow)? Your Photo Helper will listen to your specific issues, in order to guide you to the best possible solutions.
You’ll be amazed at her results.
