Printed Photo Organizing
Tidy Albums offers a tailored approach to organizing your printed photos, ensuring your memories are preserved and easy to enjoy. Photos are sorted then placed in archival-quality storage to protect them for years to come. Using the ABCs method, your collection is streamlined into categories where the best memories are set aside to be digitized.
Beyond photos, the service extends to artwork and other documents, creating a complete system for your cherished keepsakes. Whether it’s children’s drawings, important papers, or sentimental items, everything can be sorted, organized, and stored with care. Let Tidy Albums bring order to your memories and keepsakes.
The printed photo organizing process includes safely extracting your photos from old albums, especially those magnetic sticky albums that seemed so convenient years ago but are actually damaging your photos with acidic materials.
Scanning
Scanning and digitizing your prints and slides is the best way to preserve aging photos and protect them from fading or damage. It also lets you add older memories to your digital collection, making them easy to share with future generations.
Every scan includes cleaning the photos, cropping, rotating, and basic color correction. By going digital, you ensure your memories are safeguarded for years to come, ready to weather any storm.
Scanning is priced at $1.00/scan. Each scan includes cropping, basic enhancement, and a custom file name. Cleaning, removing photos from albums or frames, and any further enhancement will be charged at the hourly rate.
Commonly scanned materials include:
Printed Photos
Your printed photos hold irreplaceable memories, and preserving them is easier than ever. Each photo is digitally scanned in high resolution, capturing every detail for the future. Once digitized, they’re organized to specifications, making it simple to relive your favorite moments. The originals are then placed into archival-quality storage, keeping them safe.
Slides
Old slides, those small transparent photographs capturing cherished moments, often sit tucked away and forgotten. These timeless memories can be brought back to life through digitization, transforming them into high-quality digital files for easy viewing and sharing. Once digitized, the original slides are then placed into archival-quality storage, ensuring their long term preservation.
Negatives
Negatives are the hidden treasures of your photo collection, preserving moments in a unique format. Each negative is carefully scanned in high resolution, transforming them into crisp, digital images ready to be enjoyed. Once digitized, they can be stored using professional archival methods, ensuring their longevity and protection.
Documents & Children's Artwork
From treasured children’s artwork to important newspapers and documents, countless items can be preserved through digitization. Letters, diplomas, recipes, scrapbooks, memorabilia, and more can be scanned in high resolution, capturing every detail for safekeeping. Transform your keepsakes into digital files, ensuring they’re protected and easy to share.
Old Photo Albums
Old photo albums are filled with cherished memories, but their pages can fade or wear over time. Each photo can be carefully removed and scanned individually, or scanned directly from the album to preserve its original layout or if the photos are too fragile to remove. Once digitized, your memories are saved in high resolution, ready to be enjoyed and shared.
