What customers say
John was extremely professional and knowledgeable about the entire process. This was a perfect gift for an older relative to watch on TV. John can also possibly pick up and deliver based on where you live. Price is excellent and not necessary to shop around!
I am extremely happy that I had the opportunity to work with such a true professional. From the very beginning, the experience with The Family Album Company was outstanding. John was friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable, which immediately gave me confidence that my memories were in good hands.
John and the Family Album Co are amazing and trustworthy. They are passioante about what they do and took great care with our family's old VHS tapes. It was so cool to watch back footage from our past family reunions and we even re-discovered my pratents wedding video!
I highly recommend this company for your photo digitizing needs. After a brief phone call with John, I received all the process & pricing info regarding my photo project. John was very courteous and took great care of the photos from my parent’s wedding album.
