Scanning & Image Archiving

We take a great deal of pride in offering the greatest variety of photographic scanning, archiving and preservation methods in Boulder, Denver and the Rocky Mountain West. There’s no need to avoid those shoeboxes stuffed full of precious family memories any longer. We can quickly and economically scan them to CD for you with our shoebox scanning service. If you are a professional photographer or an artist we can scan your originals to the exact specifications needed for any reproduction or publication. We can digitally photograph your painting or original artwork. And for those who still shoot film we offer a variety of scanning options to go along with our film developing services so you can enjoy your slides, black and white negatives or color negative shots on your computer.

Our entire lab staff is SPFE certified, a rigorous third-party test and accreditation program for photo lab specialists. More importantly we are all photographers ourselves and we understand how important your original print, slide or negative is to you and we take every precaution to make sure your work is scanned and returned to you safely. You won’t find this level of service, commitment and knowledge at a big box chain store and you won’t find our affordable prices at a pro lab.

And the best thing about using our scanning services is if you need anything at all done with your scanned image afterwards, such as a print, a framed print, copies of the scan to share online with your family and friends, a slideshow presentation for a gift or an event: we can do it all, under one roof, with the same level of fast, friendly and professional service and the same affordable prices.

High Quality Film Scans

Are you going to make a poster of one your negatives? Or do you have some slides that you are submitting to a magazine for publication? Perhaps you’d like for us to do some artistic rendition of one your film shots and print it on canvas or another gallery ready application. Our high quality film scans use state of the art scanning equipment with digital ICE dust removal technology. We will also color correct images and size them exactly how you need them for any application.

Flatbed Scans

Our flatbed scans include dust clean up and color levels correction. Perfect for when you have the print but can’t seem to find the negative or digital file needed to reproduce your image.

Copy Work

Some of us can still remember the days before scanners and computers. To reproduce a photograph a photograph had to be taken of it. This method still serves us in a number of ways today. If you have a painting, a pastel drawing or other delicate work we can capture it safely for you. For oversize originals that won’t fit on a flatbed scanner this will get you the result you need. Some teachers still use slide projectors for presentations and we can directly shoot to slide if that is your preference, although our default service is to now use a high end digital camera to create a 30MB capture of your original.

High Resolution Drum Scanning

For the best image detail possible, especially from film, we offer drum scanning as the choice for high end applications. Transparencies and film will be oil mounted.
