Send us your prints, slides, or negatives. We scan everything at 600 DPI archival quality, return the originals, and deliver your digital files. No bundles, no tiers, no add-ons — just $0.50 per photo, 50 photo minimum.
Rough estimate is fine. We invoice the actual count after scanning, so over and under both work out fair.
We invoice after scanning, once your photos are counted. No payment today. The same $0.50 rate applies to prints, slides, and negatives.
We'll be in touch within 1–2 business days to coordinate. No charges until your photos are scanned and counted.
Competitor pricing reflects publicly listed rates as of 2026. We'll be the first to tell you when someone else is the right call — see our cost guide for a full honest comparison.
Any standard print, slide, or negative is one photo. The same $0.50/photo rate applies across all formats — we don't charge extra for slides or negatives the way most services do.
50 photos minimum ($25). Below that, the operational overhead doesn't pencil out for either of us. If your collection is smaller, a flatbed scanner at home is usually the better call.
Typical turnaround is 2–4 weeks from when your photos arrive. We're US-based and don't ship your originals overseas, which is part of why we're slightly pricier than ScanCafe.
We handle each photo by hand. For severe restoration work (water damage, tears, missing pieces), EverPresent or a dedicated restoration shop is better suited — and we'll tell you so before charging.
No. Scanning and hosting are separate products. If you do want the family to be able to see them, the private gallery is $49/year with a 30-day trial — set it up while you're ordering scanning, or come back later. Either path is fine.
Tagging isn't a scanning service — it's a gallery feature. If you add the hosting add-on, you and your family can tag people, dates, and locations collaboratively from any device. Doing it together is the better outcome anyway, since the family knows things we never will.
High-resolution JPEG by default (300+ DPI, archival quality). TIFF available on request for prints you may want to enlarge or reprint.
Tell us roughly how many photos you have. We'll handle the rest.
