Photo Montages

Family - it’s all about thinking multi-generationally. Hand-me-downs - family heirlooms – legacies…they’re what keep the family identity and spirit alive and well. Not only that, they’re the BEST gift ever!

What about family memories…the type captured only by photography? In bygone years when digital photography was still a thing of the future, and when home movies were shot on film that needed processing and a projector to view, we all resorted to the medium we knew best: standard photos (whether black-and-white or color).
There’s only one way to preserve these treasures from the ravages of time, in a way that brings them delightedly to life – and that’s by producing customized photo montages set to music. It’s the gift of lasting remembrance. We can work from paper/digital photos or slides, and can incorporate music and title graphics. (We cannot work with copyrighted pictures unless we have written permission from the producer.)

To prepare your photos for conversion to video, you must follow these instructions explicitly:
  • Choose one song (on CD, to be delivered with photos) per every 40-50 photos.
  • Number the photos or slides* from 1-? (on the back), in the order you wish them to appear, using a quick-drying, fine-point marker such as a Sharpie or Pilot. You may provide the photos on a CD, numbering each one accordingly. Exact synchronization of music to specific groups of photos is not guaranteed.
  • Photos may be any size up to 11” x 14”, color or black and white, but must be unframed and removed from albums. Call concerning specialty items such as antique framed photos, etc., in which case to take them out of the frame would damage them.
  • Photos bearing a copyright notice from a professional photographer must be accompanied by written permission from the photographer in order to include the photo in your video. Copyrighted photos not accompanied by a written permission slip will be removed from the production. Releases may be faxed to 508-888-7092.
  • You may choose a beginning and ending title (i.e. “Happy Birthday, Mom/Love from all of us”) to be included in the video.
  • Place photos & music in an envelope or bag with your name and phone number attached. Please do not hand over a loose stack of photos.
  • The cost of the montage is $3.50 per photo. The price includes incorporating music plus a beginning and ending title page (up to ten words each page).
