Helping Bring Those Memories Back

Imagine finding that favorite slide Dad took of you and your sister at Easter or your trip to the farm back in 1965. The slide ends up being dark or the colors aren't right. Dang it.
 We probably can make those memories look a little bit better.

Here are some examples of some of the quick work we can do to help recover what may be a dark or incorrectly tinted slide to something that can be cherished.  When we are doing slide digitizing for you we can do simple enhancements of all your slides or those slides of your choosing. There is a small up charge for this service.  The charges will vary depending on what is required, and we will keep the cost reasonable.

If you have a special slide or picture you have had digitized somewhere else and are not happy with how it looks, give us a shot at making it better.

Here are just two examples from my last digitizing job.
Original Easter '64

Simple Levels and Color/Tone Correction 

Original On the Farm '65

Simple Crop, Levels and Color/Tone Correction

This was a fun project to do for our client.

Sample Photo Show of Claudia

Here is a 1 minute snippet of Claudia from some pictures that Char put together and let me play with.  This was so much fun.  Good example of what we can do with your digital photos or prints you might want scanned.

Label Options for your Photo Show

You can have photo(s) and text of your choice on the DVD Label of your finished production.

I offer both pressure sensitive glossy labels or Lightscribe.  Lightscribe burns an image into the  surface of the label side of the DVD.



I have not experienced any problems, but have read that some players have issues with playback when a sticky label is used.  Liquids are also an issue with sticky labels.  Just words of caution.  If you prefer your photo show on a photo glossy sticky label, we will do that.  If you have playback issues, we will burn a lightscribe disc for you.

Blu-ray burner manufacturers do not recommend putting any type of label on a blu-ray disc.  Until I can research it further, I will use disc compliant markers to write and label blu ray disc.

Something to Consider for Your Photo Show

                                                 

If you would like some certificates, sports cards, and so on in your photo show you can provide us with the digitized images or we can digitize them for you. Anything we digitize for your photo show is always half of the price listed in the digitizing price list with no minimum digitizing order.
