I had a client bring me a bunch of VHS and camcorder tapes. He said his partner already had some done but didn’t know which ones. He gave me the USB that they received when the tapes were done.

It was not helpful. These file names don’t indicate anything useful to help find key memories.

When I digitize tapes, I assign each one a number, then digitize the tape. The file naming convention I use is YYYY-MM-DD_Subject_001.

This information is entered into an Excel document. Once I’ve completed each tape I use the Excel file to print labels for each original tape so they match the digital file name.

Creating a digital mess is almost just as bad as not digitizing the tapes. These could easily be lost in a sea of digital documents.

Look at the difference between these file names. Which one do you think will help you find your memories?

A client just brought me these treasures!

Audio reels like these were once a common way to record family moments, interviews, and personal histories.

Over time, they degrade—and the equipment to play them becomes harder to find.

Digitizing them ensures those voices aren’t lost to time.

If you could hear the voice of someone you love again… would you? 💛

That’s what’s stored on reels like these.

When I opened these film reels, they were covered in mould — fragile, fading, and so close to being lost.

This is what time quietly does to memories we think are safe.

But this is also the part that means the most to me… with care and patience, these moments can still be saved. The laughter, the faces, the stories — gently brought back to life.

There’s something really special about giving memories a second chance. It’s never just film — it’s someone’s family, someone’s history.

If you happen to have old reels tucked away somewhere, it might be worth taking a look at them sooner rather than later.

I spent this afternoon gloved and masked, cleaning the reels and the film. Stay tuned to see how these ones turned out.

Spring cleaning isn’t just for closets… 🌷

You know those boxes you come across every year — filled with old home videos? The ones you say, “We really should do something with these…”

If you’re in Maple Ridge or Pitt Meadows, this is your sign. 😉

While you’re decluttering this season, don’t forget those VHS tapes, camcorder tapes, and film reels tucked away in storage.

📼 VHS
📹 Camcorder
🎞 Film reels

Magnetic tapes and film don’t last forever — even sitting in a box, they’re slowly degrading over time.

I help local families turn those old memories into digital keepsakes you can actually watch, share, and enjoy again.

It’s one of those things that feels so good to finally check off your list.

Send me a message if this is on your spring cleaning list this year 🌸
