The photo digitisation process
SEND US YOUR PHOTOS
Send your old photos via one of the most popular file sharing services or bring them to our office in person. Preferably label your photos on the back so that they are easily identifiable, and we will name and forward them to you after digitisation.
PHOTO DIGITIZATION!
We digitise your photos with a professional scanner specially designed for digitisation. For us, the highest resolution is the most important thing to keep our customers happy. This maximum resolution for us is 600 dpi, which means plenty of professional photo quality.
FILE FORMAT SELECTION!
When the scanning process is complete, your photos will be reviewed one by one, edited to size and checked to make sure they are at the highest possible resolution. Think about what and how you want to use your digitised photos, so we can help you choose the right file format.
TRANSFER OF DIGITISED PHOTOS!
When we are done digitizing, we will let you know, and you can come to us with a media on which we will copy your digitized photos. Of course, we can also send the photos via an online link, saving you the time/effort of receiving them in person. We will email you the download link and then arrange for the photos to be posted back to you.
Photo digitisation
Recently, we have noticed that there is an increasing demand for nostalgia, so we have expanded our services to include photo digitisation in addition to VHS digitisation. To meet the needs of our customers, the digitisation is done in the highest possible quality, with a professional scanner, in professional photo quality (600 dpi).
The professionalism of our advertising agency is reflected in the fact that we also pay maximum attention to the needs of our clients who turn to us for digitisation. We can also assist you in choosing the right file format, but JPEG or PDF are usually the most suitable formats and will suit most applications.

Why should I scan my old photos?
Digitising, or scanning, old photos can be important for you for several reasons.
Old photos, especially those on paper, can easily become damaged, faded or torn. With scanning, however, it is possible to convert photos to digital format so that they can be preserved for longer without deterioration.
Shareability. Digital photos can be easily shared with family members, friends or others who are interested in the same subject.
Preservation. This prevents the original photos from getting lost or damaged.
Restoration.
Overall, digitising old photos can be an important step towards preserving precious memories and historical documents and enjoying them in digital format in the long term.
