Answers to Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about preparing your media, resolution standards, and our handling protocols.

How do you handle extremely fragile or 80+ year-old photos?
Every photo is handled using powder-free cotton gloves. We never use automatic document feeders which can chew or bend delicate paper. Photos are individually placed on calibrated optical glass flatbeds, scanned, and gently returned to their original envelope or archival sleeve.
What resolution (DPI) do you scan at?
Standard loose photos are scanned at 600 DPI (which allows reprints at up to double the original size). Master archival scans are performed at 1200 DPI. 35mm slides and film negatives are scanned at 2400 to 4800 optical DPI to extract every micro-detail from the film grain.
How does local drop-off and pickup work?
Because our equipment and scanning studio are located in a private home office workspace, drop-offs and pick-ups are scheduled by appointment. Once you submit your order request, we will confirm a convenient time slot and provide directions to our workspace at [Insert Your Street Address, City, State, ZIP Code].
How are mail-in orders insured and protected?
We provide clear packing guidelines (double-boxing, moisture-barrier zip bags, and rigid cardboard backing). We recommend shipping via USPS Priority Mail, UPS, or FedEx with tracking and signature confirmation. All returned media is packed with heavy-duty weatherproofing and insured.
What digital file formats do I receive?
You receive high-quality standard JPEG files (perfect for viewing on smartphones, smart TVs, sharing on social media, and emailing) and uncompressed master TIFF files upon request for long-term archiving and professional printing.
What is your typical turnaround time?
Standard orders under 250 photos are completed in 3 to 5 business days. Larger collections (500+ items or whole albums) typically take 7 to 10 business days. Expedited rush turnaround is available upon request.
