Archive & Digitize
Old prints, negatives and slides — back as files you can keep.
Boxes of prints, sleeves of negatives, carousels of slides — the images are already there. We scan them at the Toronto lab with the same care we give fresh film, and hand them back as files you can share, back up, and print again.
Most personal archives are a mix of formats collected over decades. Bring the whole shoebox — we sort, assess and quote before anything is scanned.
Loose photos, packets and stacks — from wallet size to large enlargements. Matte or glossy, black & white or colour.
35mm, 120 and sheet film. Colour and black & white, in strips or sleeves. Scanned direct for the best possible quality.
35mm mounted transparencies and carousels. We remove, scan and re-sleeve each frame by hand.
Album pages, photo books and mounted work scanned in place — no need to tear anything out.
A wedding roll from 1974, a parent's slides, the only negative of a photograph that matters — there is no second chance if it's damaged. So archive work is handled by hand, one batch at a time, and never left to a bulk feeder.
We surface-clean where it helps, keep your originals in order, and return everything the way it came in — just with files to go alongside.
Every archive is different, so we quote after we see it. Nothing is scanned — and nothing is charged — until you've approved the plan.
Drop your prints, negatives or slides at the Toronto lab, or ship them in. We log everything against your name on arrival.
We sort by format, check condition, and send you a plan — resolution, formats and price — before any scanning starts.
Each piece is scanned at archival resolution and lightly colour-corrected, with dust and surface clean-up where it helps.
Files are delivered digitally as JPEG and TIFF; your originals are returned in the same order they arrived.

Volume pricing: the total quantity in each format sets a single per-unit rate for that whole batch — the more you send, the lower the rate per piece. Minimum order $10. We confirm your final count and any special handling before scanning.
Super-res Scan — 2× the base scan price. A higher-resolution option for larger prints, archiving, or more detailed files.
Every scan comes two ways — a ready-to-use JPEG for phones, email and prints, and a full-quality TIFF for long-term archiving and enlargements.
Colour-corrected, right-sized files for your phone, cloud, social and everyday prints. The easy copy you'll actually use.
Full-resolution, uncompressed archival masters — the copy to back up and print large from for years to come.
Downloaded from a private link, or brought in on your own drive. Originals returned in order at the counter or by mail.
