We Come to You to Preserve Your Precious Memories
Are you overwhelmed by the hundreds of photos in your house? Or worried your memories will be buried in a closet forever — or even tossed? Legacy Companions ensures your precious memories meet a better fate. Through the services below, we help you organize and create permanent digital versions of your important memories.
We welcome projects of all sizes: smaller, one-time projects (e.g., scanning your wedding photos), as well as those that span decades of family memories. You determine the scope of the project and how much help you'd like. We can guide you through the process, working by your side, or take it off your hands and work offsite.
Scanning services
Print Photos, Documents, Children’s Artwork, Letters and Memorabilia
Preserve your family's photographic history with Legacy Companions’ scanning services. We also scan and digitize vital documents, children’s artwork, recipes — you name it. How it works:
- Photos can be loose, in albums or in frames.
- No need to mail items away or to count your photos.
- Photos are scanned at 600 dpi on professional scanners.
- Scanned images and files will be hand delivered on a flash drive.
- All photos are dusted and handled with white-glove service.
- Items will be returned in their original format (e.g., in their albums).
If you have also arranged for print photo organizing, your photos will be categorized, labeled and stored in archival-quality containers. Learn more.
