“I had a lot of photos, and he scanned all of them onto a jump drive. It was a very easy process, and he kept me informed throughout. Highly recommend.”

“Not only are his prices reasonable, but he did an amazing job scanning some very old and odd shaped photos that my family can now share together electronically. Turnaround time was very quick and the quality of the images is superior. Best investment!”

Payment is completed when you pick up your kit
Cash or Venmo accepted
Your payment helps reserve your kit and schedule your project. Pricing is flat-rate by kit size (Small, Medium, or Large), so you’ll always know your total before anything begins!
For albums, photos will be counted based on number of photos per page and pages per album; price will be determined from there.
To respect your privacy, kit drop-off and pick up will be conducted at one of three Kwik Trip locations in the Fox Valley.
1400 W American Dr, Neenah, WI 54956
5821 Green Valley Rd, Oshkosh, WI 54904
4085 E Calumet St, Appleton, WI 54915
When you drop off your photos, I’ll quickly confirm that your Sky Scan Kit selection (Small, Medium, or Large) is the right fit for your collection. If anything looks significantly different than expected at the time of scanning, I’ll reach out for approval before I begin, no surprises.
Each Sky Scan Kit is designed to hold a full collection of photos within its size range. As long as everything comfortably fits and the box can be comfortably closed, your project will fall under the flat-rate pricing for that kit.
To keep things simple, all completed scans will be returned in your kit box or the box that best fits your album photos.
I am able to scan photos from most albums; however, due to their fragile nature, photos stored in magnetic self-stick or adhesive pages are not able to be placed back into their albums (if option is chosen). These photos will be returned separately in a protective bag or box alongside your album.
I strive to provide clean, high quality digital scans. Due to the age and condition of original prints, some minor imperfections may occur and are considered normal. If any scans are noticeably blurred, cropped incorrectly, or have avoidable defects, will offer a free rescan for those specific images if requested within 7 days of delivery.
I reserve the right to decline scanning any photos that contain explicit, graphic, or violent content. If such material is identified during scanning, those images will not be digitized and will be returned with the original materials.
To protect the privacy and security of your photos, I do not store files in the cloud or on the internet, and they are not kept on my system longer than necessary. Within 24 hours of returning your flash drive and original photos, all digital files will be permanently deleted.
