Slide scanning
Remember the days of pulling down the screen and gathering around the slide projector? Those days may be gone, but your memories don’t have to be. We’ll carefully digitise your slides so you can enjoy them anytime, anywhere, without the need for old equipment.
How it works
Place your order online
Give us a simple estimate of how many slides you’d like scanned. This will get the order underway. We will confirm the final number later.
Send us your slides
For our Sydney customers we can organise a personal collection. Alternatively you can organise a tracked Australia Post delivery.
We scan with care
Each slide is gently cleaned, scanned, corrected for rotation, sharpness, and colour, and then organised into digital albums.
We return your originals
Along with a beautifully organised digital library you can view, share and combine with your other collections.
Preparing your slides is easy
- Group your 35mm slides by year or event e.g. “1993 Fiji trip” or “2010 Ben & Chloe wedding”.
- Place a marker or note with each group and label it clearly.
- Pack your labelled slide groups into a secure box, ready for collection or posting.
What you'll receive
- A secure, shareable digital gallery of high quality scans.
- Cleaned and corrected images with optimised sharpness and colour.
- Organised digital albums matching your groups.
- Options to create slideshows, prints, frames, and personalised gifts.
