They are exceptional at communicating and although I initially had challenges making my videos accessible for them, they were patient in the process. I’ll use their services again. 5 stars. ⭐️

John did an excellent job digitizing a large group of old family photos for me and was able to include the dates that they had been taken. I highly recommend his services. Diane W.

I was able to explain my needs very quickly and John understood immediately and so I was on my way again within a few minutes. The pictures are excellent and the cost was very reasonable. I know where to come when I have more work to be done.

I needed a 40-year-old 12x8 faded family photo restored. I took a picture of it and sent it to him via email for his evaluation. He quickly responded with a positive answer. I received the first proof in a day. It was so true to the original, I did not hesitate to approve the proof and ordered three hard prints. I received the finished copies in two days from providing him with the faded original. I highly recommend him for the restoration of faded photos.
