With the help of the Flip-Pal Scanner scanning my Nan’s old photo album became a breeze. 272 photos and many, many hours later; the album is now completely digitised. After all the work, organising and labelling (some of which aren’t actually labelled yet – Mum, help!) I’m feeling a little lost. What should I scan and organise next? In the meantime, I’d like to share with you a few of my favourites.

Photo scannng and restoration can be time consuming but rewarding. You’re lucky to find albums to copy. Best wishes to you Jess.

I am very grateful (and lucky!) to have albums to copy. Though it is time consuming nothing beats that feeling when you’ve finally finished and every photo is digitised.
Best wishes to you too Neville.
