03 Apr 3 Reasons to Hire a Professional Photo Organizer
You have tons of pictures and you’re a DIYer. Why on earth would you hire a Photo Organizer to do what you could do yourself?
These are the top three reasons to go with a professional:
Quality
Professional Photo Equipment
A professional Photo Organizer would have the equipment and the knowledge to scan your material. Before I became a Photo Organizer, I scanned some old family pictures with my iPad. I thought they came out pretty good – until I became a Photo Organizer and realized that they were not good at all.

Many pictures have faded or yellowed over time. Some have been well-loved and have become creased. These are some examples of what a professional Photo Organizer could do for your photos:
Slides fade and discolor in their own way. These are examples of how slides fade and could be enhanced:
It Will Get Done!
Most importantly, your pictures, slides and photo albums will get digitized!
I know someone who has lamented for years that she did not want to go to a Photo Organizer. She gave her pictures to a family member who agreed to scan the pictures whenever she had some free time. Free time never happened.
She scanned a few pictures herself on her all-in-one printer/scanner. She quickly got tired of doing the pictures one at a time.
A professional Photo Organizer has the right equipment, experience and commitment to get the project done in a timely manner. As an example, I worked with a client who ended up having almost 4,500 pictures! This project was completed in 3 ½ weeks!
