Your scanning questions answered:

1. What is the best way to digitise a large number of photos?

At Preserve Your Photos, I use professional equipment designed to gently handle older prints and scan them efficiently in small to medium batches. I specialise in collections of up to around 2,000 photos — ideal for those who want quality, care, and a personal touch.

If you have a much larger collection and simply want everything scanned quickly and cheaply, a bulk scanning service might be a better fit. But if you're looking for someone to treat your photos like their own, you're in the right place.

2.How many GB do I need for 1,000 photos?

1. What is the best way to digitise a large number of photos?

Roughly:

At 600dpi, 1,000 JPG scans = 8–12 GB

TIFF files = 30+ GB
We’ll help you choose the right format and storage.

I can provide a USB or you can supply a new one with your order.

3. Is it better to scan or photograph documents/photos?

Scanning gives clearer, consistent results and better quality. Photographs of photos can lose detail, introduce glare, and be harder to archive.

04. Can I scan photos for free?

3. Is it better to scan or photograph documents/photos?

Yes, apps like Google PhotoScan and Photomyne can be useful for quickly sharing a photo — but they’re not ideal for preserving a full collection.

If you want to preserve your family memories properly, professional scanning is a much safer, higher-quality option.on.

Samantha did a great job of scanning my photos, and showing me how to organise my electronic copies once scanned. She handled my hard copy photos with care and sensitivity when scanning them. Samantha is a very knowledgeable, organised and experienced professional - your photos and precious memories
