scan all my old photographs

My name is Dane Ensley and I work for Life Preserver Digital Archiving. What is digital archiving? Good question. Digital Archiving is a fancy term for scanning and organizing. We are a scanning and archiving company specializing in the transfer of all things analog.

We take photographs, slides, negatives, 8mm, Super 8, VHS, and more and transfer it all to a DVD or external hard drive. Photos and movies take up a lot of closet space right now, but they don’t have to. They are aging, losing their color, and feeling lonely in the dark. They are unorganized, jumbled, and chances are people don’t truly even know what they have. Using our service breathes new life into old photos and media, often returning a better image than the original. Once digital, our clients have options they have not yet imagined. Most importantly, our service can transform media from what was once impossible to manage and colossal in size to what is now a breaze to organize and the size of a DVD.

We are located where the 5 and 110 freeways intersect in Los Angeles. We do all our transferring at our location and our client’s most precious memories are never out of our careful hands. We’ll even come to your house and pick your media up. We pride ourselves on working intimately with our clients and we guarantee the ability to meet face to face with a Life Preserver representative.

My grandparents digitized their entire library a year ago. We made every photo look perfect and then they ordered seven copies of their library to give to all of their kids. Its great to sit down together and relive our family history. I believe wholeheartedly that digitization is a necessary investment in your families most important asset, memories.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you should have any questions at all, and please don’t wait to call and schedule a pickup. Your memories aren’t getting any younger. Check out our website at: digitallifepreserver.com

Hope all is well.
It’s your life. Relive it.â„¢

I started doing this, I’m doing all of the family photos since about 1975, which was like 12 yrs b4 i was born but im finding it really interesting. All of the baby photos are amazing, its taking a while to get through but is very rewarding. Get doing it!

This is my new project for the summer…

I am just sick and tired of looking at that moving box filled with all those pictures. And not being able to enjoy all the old pics. So, this summer, they’re going digital!!

We now have a printer / scanner combo deal. Hmmmm maybe i’ll work on this a little bit.

I started to do this myself on this really old Kodak scanner. After a while, I decided to look for other solutions. I came across a few but I tried this company called Scanapix. They did a very good job and their pricing was very reasonable.

I just started doing this last week, and not only are there a lot more pictures than I thought there were, but it’s taking me much longer to scan them. I’m sure that it will definitely be worth it, though… especially since my parents are paying me to do it.

I want a new start.
Therefore, new photos…

I dont want to be reminded of past events, bad friends etc. I want new memories and new photos to put around my house – new fun times. :)

Therefore I have decided not to scan all my old photos, but put them in a box and leave them there.

I shall then take brand new photos of people and places that make me happy. Heres to a new start… :] x

I’ve just ordered an HP Scanjet G4010 to pixmania. It’ll probably arrive by Tuesday or Wednesday. Now I just just have to start scanning!

Just one of these laborious things you need to do. I guess it will be worth it but it’s just takes a lot of time…

this goal will have to wait until I have saved enough money for a better scanner…
