Time for a cup of tea and a chat about your digitising project?

Over the years we’ve run Henley Scan, we’ve had many meetings with customers or networked with fellow businesses. There was a period during the pandemic when that was all screen based. Nearly all the time a cup of hot drink involved when doing business.

Graham is the barista now, (we meet most people in our home), with his nice, albeit a bit noisy coffee maker (and no coffee art performance with the milk though 😉) but he often says ’cheapest coffee in Henley’. And we keep on hearing the coffee is top notch. Why not make an appointment to come and see us? We’d be delighted to help.

Some of the films we’ve converted were from the 1920s. Some of them in immaculate condition, some of them not. The main difference of how well they’ve fared over the century, is where and how they were kept. The majority of the films we’ve converted, are without audio and from the 1970s.

Moisture, humidity, sunlight, change in temperature, extreme temperature (hot or cold), is all part of the elements that will make film deteriorate. It’s my (Eva) favourite media and it fascinates me seeing the footage, but also thinking about the choices that was made by the person holding the film camera, how they used the technology of the time to compose the clips of film.

Enhancing and restoring a special photo is a very special gift to give. This is achieved with years and decades of expertise in photoshop. AI sometimes help and sometimes hinders.

This is a very impactful service, we can see our customers reaction at pick up, and we have tissues available, for the happpy tears. Very precious.

Memories - be it sound, smell, film or images are priceless. And not stealing John Lewis’s thunder - but that’s what Henley Scan is about - bringing back the past. We cannot recreate smell - unless it’s the musty smell we sometimes get opening up old boxes or film cans of Customers precious media.

A photograph is a return ticket to a memory.

These images are eight years apart on the day . Wild swimming and protesting in Westminister about the state of our river. I love being reminded about my journey, my story. I think I’ve always been a water baby.

Going back to even older photographs, that were not digital initially, takes a little bit more time and cost. A process we help many of our customers with. That’s legacy.
