SCANNING AND RESTORATION SERVICES//
Do you have a big box filled with memories that you just don't know what do do with? The worry is that with time old negatives and slides deteriorate and can become damages with moisture, mildew and dust.
This service has a personal connection, as at a few months old, my mother Morag sadly passed away. I was brought up by my Grandparents Rev Alexander Murray and Marjory Murray, firstly in Applecross on the West Coast of Scotland and then In Lairg in Sutherland.
My grandfather, who is now 96 was an avid photographer and documented life as a minister and family growing up and going on adventures. I have always been fascinated by the images that he captured and remember many a night in the Manse living room getting the projector out and him telling stories about all the images.
Recently I have acquired his slides so I can scan them and for names and dates to be put to as many of them as possible, My grand plan is to create a digital copy of each and then distribute them to everyone in the family, so the fear of losing them forever is gone!
But not all negatives are old or damaged and perhaps you would like to have the safe knowledge that you have a copy of your favourite images caught in the time of analogue.
So my service offers scanning and digitalisation of both 24mm negs, slides and photographs. I also offer a full image restoration service of which you can see some examples of in my gallery below.

SCANNING SERVICES//
Scanning negatives, slides and photographs can be a great way of ensuring that you have a back up copy of images in digital form, but can also reveal forgotten memories when there are no known prints of the image. The other joy of digitalisation means that you can share copies with friends and family for them to treasure too, meaning if the worst should happen you know you can retrieve another copy.

My pricing is structured per image, so no need to feel like you have to get any of those dud images scanned.
1 - 10 images £2.50 each

IMAGE RESTORATION SERVICES//
Sometimes even when negatives and slides are scanned if they have been stored somewhere that light and moisture may have creeped in then it's time to consider restoration, This can be at either side of the scale , but I am happy to try my best to restore your memories to how you remember them.
All quotes for restoration will be given once an image is scanned, I will be as accurate as I can on the level of restoration and time needed per image.
1 hour// £50 (generally enough time to do 2 - 5 images with colour correction work and small imperfections)
30 minutes// £30 (generally enough time to do 1- 2 images with colour correction and small imperfections)
