Testimonials

Good Morning,

I wanted to write to say an enormous thank you for the excellent work you completed so quickly on my precious photographs. I am more than pleased with them all and have spent the last couple of days looking at them. I will now start cataloging them for the boys. I am more than impressed with your customer care and efficiency and will have no hesitation in recommending you to my friends and family. I will start the clearing of the loft in the New Year and may need to be in touch again as Im sure there are more photographs, slides and other matters that may need scanning. Until then I wish you all the best.

Best Regards,

Rosie, London

Slideshow DVD

TV DVD Photo Slideshow

Would you like to give a truly memorable gift to a friend or member of your family ?

Below is a video slideshow we did from footage of a day at Ascari Race Track in Spain. Mixing photos and videos we can create something really fun and memorable. Because it's been uploaded to You tube, the quality is compressed but the original is fantastic. We can use music, photos, video, transitions and text to make something personal and unique.

From £120

As standard, we will provide you with a data disc for your computer of your scanned images. Once added to your PC or Mac you can then create slide shows or albums. But what if you or the intended receipient doesn't have a PC or the capability to use the scanned photos ? The answer is to go for an upgrade and create a DVD which will play on any TV. We are able to create a truly memorable photo slideshow that runs like a movie with music and transitions. Using our Apple Mac's we make it look professional and prices start at only £19.99.

Case Study Ann wanted to provide her friend Jon with a unique gift for his 70th Birthday. She collaborated with Jon's wife and passed around 200 photos over to us. We scanned them in and created a slideshow DVD which played for around 30 minutes with a sound track of Dean Martin and a few other crooners. Jon was overwhelmed with the results and heaped praise on us and Ann for doing something different. Of course, we can do this for you as well.

Themes We can use a number of Themes for the DVD "skin" (awful word apologies!). Below are the examples - All you have to do is tell us what the occassion is and what you think you would prefer ie Classic, Fun, Rock n Roll, Contemporary

Music We can buy some music on iTunes for your DVD - just tell us the type of music you like or think appropriate although this is only an option and the DVD will play very nicely in the background without music. However, music provokes memories and brings slideshows to life.

Extra Copies Yes of course, if you need more copies of the slideshow we can organise this for you, just select the extra disc package when you place your order.

Backing Up Your photos

Iomega Backup Drive - perfect for backing up photos Once you have all of your old photos scanned and have them together with your new digital photos you need to make sure they are backed up. You can do this in a number of ways and very simply you can backup to a DVD which will hold around 4.5GB of data which could be 5000 photos. If you have more than this number, which many people now do, backing up to another PC or across the internet to a Photo Bank offers you the best level of protection.
