Wedding Mementos by ScanCafe

Have you guys heard about ScanCafe? If you haven’t, you really should spend some time checking out their brilliant new site. In a nutshell, ScanCafe will scan your hard photographs, slides and negatives, digitally archiving them on a dvd that you can enjoy for years and years to come…

Scancafe

(thanks Damon for the lovely photo collage made just for us!)

I have about a zillion pictures from my wedding that were taken by friends and family along the way…many of them a bit more personal and candid than those that were taken by my photographer. And yet, they are sitting in a box waiting patiently for me to put them into an album. Hmmm, probably not going to happen. ScanCafe is so perfect for me…the lazy girl’s way to get organized. All you have to do is pack up your photos, send them to ScanCafe, then wait for the online proofs. You only have to pay for the photographs that you choose. Nice. Oprah thinks so…they were recently featured in her O Magazine Gift Guide!

I am thinking that this is perfect for the rehearsal dinner slideshow? The gifts to your bridesmaids or your parents (what is more personal than a look back at your favorite memories)? The options are endless.

Oh and, Damon said that they have successfully scanned over 3,000,000 images…so I’d say you can trust them with that picture of you and your hubby that you just can’t bear to part with.

  1. I checked out their site. Looks really great. Their cost comparison chart makes them a clear choice. I’ll keep the info tucked away in a safe place (!) for after the wedding! Thanks, Abby!

  2. They look great but a cheaper resource that I have used is FotoBridge- they don’t ship the stuff away and they get it back to you in less than a week for less cash.. I totally endorse them.

  3. Thank you for posting this! I have 200 medium format negatives from my wedding (before photography was all digital) that need to be preserved and compared to all the other bids I received, it was going to cost me over $300. Scancafe will be doing it for less than $100! THANK YOU! You have no idea how happy this makes me! I highly recommend this for people who have negatives other than 35mm!

  4. Those photos look amazing!

  5. I put together this sheet comparing all of the slide scanning services out there side by side.
