Printed Photos

This has to be one of our most asked questions. Previously our answer was: Momento. We were deeply saddened by the recent news of the closure and liquidation of our beloved photo book supplier. This marks the end of a decade-long partnership and a twenty-year business. We appreciate that you are all interested in our opinion on alternative suppliers, and we are actively exploring various options.

Here in Australia with drought conditions and a fire season that has reached catastrophic conditions many people's thoughts are turning to preserving photos and other memorabilia. We are being approached on a daily basis with requests for our white glove scanning service. But times are tough...

I listened to a podcast recently where the author of Revenge of the Analog, David Sax, was interviewed. It got me thinking about how much has changed over the last 15 years, not just in how we capture our memories, but in the way we communicate, listen to music, read and work. We rely so much now on digital ways of doing things, but do you sometimes miss the analog days? Do digital methods increase or efficiency and solve problems or do they create more problems and distractions?

Recently I saw this image and it prompted me to think how readily old photos highlight the differences in the way we go about our daily lives. Also to ponder if the changes have been improvements or if things really were better ‘back in the day’.
