Services Offered
Organization Solutions
Do you know how some people have a large number of physical and digital photos scattered across various devices and in boxes in closets and attics, making it challenging to organize and enjoy them? What I do is help provide solutions to this problem by helping clients consolidate all their memories into a one organized space where it is easy to locate specific photos and videos, add stories to the memories, and share them with friends and family for future generations.
Memory Preservation
I enjoy helping others convert old analog formats like photos, slides, negatives, 8mm film, and VHS film into digital formats. This process not only ensures the longevity of these memories for future generations but also makes them easily accessible and shareable. By digitizing these materials, you can preserve them for future generations to enjoy.
Personalized Projects
In addition to digitizing and organizing photos, I can help you create photo gifts that are sure to give someone a smile. This includes creating photo books, blankets, tabletop panels, and other custom items. Ask me about assistance with your high school grad! These projects will transform keepsakes that you won't find on next summers rummage sale. Photo gifts are simply the best! Whether you want to learn to create them or would like my help, tell me what you would like to do and let's make it happen!

FAQs
Tell me about yourself?
I live on a farm in western South Dakota with my husband where we grow corn, soybeans, and milo. I have a grown daughter that enjoys agriculture probably more than I do! I help my husband with the fall harvest as a grain cart driver, auger tractor expert, and harvest chef extraordinaire. My family is my world, but I also have a job away from the farm as a Marketing Specialist. I have a background in IT, Sales, and Financial Services and I enjoy just about anything "techy".
In my spare time I like to work in my garden in the summer, spend time with family, and continue to work on my photos and make photo gifts for others.
Why do I help others with their memories?
Helping others with their memories is something I'm passionate about. I know dealing with a pile of photos can be overwhelming, and it may have taken years or even decades to accumulate that mess. Memories, especially in the form of photos, hold immense power. The satisfaction I get from assisting people in organizing these memories is knowing that I've played a role in helping them continue their family legacy.
