Dave's Personal Archive

The Proof is in the Preservation

This section of the site isn’t a service I sell; it is my own family’s history, fully digitized and preserved. I share it here because your privacy is absolute. While big corporate labs often use client photos for marketing, I never will. Your memories stay strictly confidential. Instead, I offer my own 30-year archive—thousands of clips and frames—as the ultimate proof of the meticulous care and technical precision I bring to every project.

Why the "Boring" Stuff Matters

In the sidebar, you will see categories like “House Probes” or “Workplaces.” Years ago, I filmed my childhood home – just the furniture and the rooms. At the time, it seemed ordinary. Today, those clips are among the most valuable things I own. They prove that history isn’t just weddings and birthdays; it’s the way the kitchen looked in 1993 or the sound of your father’s voice at his desk. I treat every “boring” tape with obsession, because I know that one day, it will become precious.
My goal is to give you the clean, high-quality digital files you need to build a legacy like this for your own family. Use the categories in the sidebar to explore how different formats – from fading slides to silent film – are elevated into a cohesive digital time capsule.
