Upon scheduling your "get started" session, you will be sent a guide as to what to expect during our time together and what steps you can take beforehand. If other family members have input, we prefer they be present during this time or have been conferred with prior. Ideally, it's helpful to see your entire collection gathered in one location, as this streamlines our 2-3 hours together. Any types of media you'd like us to include would be, but is not limited to: loose photos, photo albums, framed photos, slides, negatives, home movies, memorabilia, everything significant to your final collection. There is a $150 fee charged at this session as we will be revisiting your goals, answering questions, discussing options and a plan. We'll create your family tree to include family names, dates of birth and any information you deem pertinent to capture your family's story. We will be prepared to take possession of part or all of your collection and, once in our studio, we will take a detailed inventory, email a proposal to be signed and set up payment options. At Unboxed Photos, we take personal information and your photo collections' privacy seriously; we will not share your information in any form. We look forward to chatting with you to learn of your unique needs. Schedule your complimentary call HERE.

They are typically made from acid-free and lignon-free cardboard that won't react with or damage the contents. Acid can cause material to yellow, become brittle and degrade over time.

Identifying sticky notes are attached to group photos, baby photos, school photos, Aunt Bonnie's photo and so on. The backs of photos often leave clues as to date, subject or a story, and facial recognition software is used during the digital organization phase. But rest assured, we won't hesitate to call on you should we get stuck! We love what we do and we love being detectives!
