Duplication Media Scans Photographs to Preserve Memories

URBANDALE, Iowa - April 16, 2018 - PRLog -- Photography has been evolving for centuries, from the daguerreotype process in 1839 to the development of today's digital photography. There have been various different types of photography that have developed over time, containing countless precious memories. Duplication Media, a video duplication and transfer service located in Urbandale, Iowa, has been helping people preserve their precious memories for over a decade with their photo scanning service. Jason Olson, the owner of Duplication Media, is passionate about helping his customers preserve their photos with the digitization process.

"Similar to how outdated video and audio tapes deteriorate over time, photographs also deteriorate. I always encourage my customers to bring their photographs in to be digitized before something unexpected happens to them like a house fire, tornado, flood, or any other unexpected occurrence," said Olson.

No matter how carefully one handles and stores their photos, time and age will eventually cause the photos to fade and lose quality. Duplication Media has the tools to preserve those photos so they can be enjoyed for many years to come. Regardless of how many decades old a photograph is, Duplication Media's photo scanning process preserves and protects these cherished possessions.

Once photographs are digitized, the possibilities are endless what you can do with them. They can be emailed, made into videos, posted to social media, stored on the cloud and more. By scanning the photos into a digital file, they can essentially live on endlessly in pristine condition. Whether the photos are fragile, creased, rough around the edges, or stuck to an album, Duplication Media can help. They will color correct, sharpen, reduce or eliminate dust particles, rotate if necessary, and crop the edges, using high-quality, professional equipment.

Duplication Media has two different methods of digitizing photographs. If a customer brings in photos that need to be handled one-at-a-time because perhaps they're fragile, stuck in pages of photo albums, or newspaper clippings, they'll be scanned with a flatbed scanner. But if a customer has shoe boxes full of photographs then Duplication Media can run the photographs through their high speed scanner.

After all of the photos are scanned, regardless of which process is used, Duplication Media makes the necessary corrections to help preserve the quality of the photograph.

Olson said, "We've had customers bring in multiple totes full of photo albums plus boxes and boxes of loose photos that they don't have any idea how to organize. We're able to scan everything they give us with our two different methods. After they're all digitized, it makes it much easier for them to organize into groups."

Whether a customer needs one photo scanned or thousands, Duplication Media has the equipment to meet their needs.
