Working Together - New
How to Get Started
Every project begins with a clear plan — starting with a complimentary call to talk through your goals. Our process is designed to protect your photos, reduce overwhelm, and ensure thoughtful results before any work begins.
Complimentary Discovery Call
$395Initial In-Person Meeting
This meeting takes place at your home or business and is designed to assess what you have, clarify your goals, and determine the best path forward.
This fee includes:
- Meeting preparation
- Drive time
- Up to 2 hours on-site
During this meeting we:
- Review the scope and condition of your photos and media
- Identify priorities and potential concerns
- Discuss options and overall project approach
No organizing, digitizing, or product design is completed at this stage. This step is about clarity and strategy.
$1,000Project Deposit
If you decide to move forward and have items taken off-site, a Project Deposit is collected. This is the point at which your project officially begins.
This deposit covers the line-item estimate, and the balance is used to start the project. Estimates usually take 1–3 hours depending on the size and complexity of the project.
- Off-site review and high-level sorting as needed
- Careful evaluation of quantities and complexity
- Development of a custom, line-item project plan and estimate
This deposit is applied toward the total project cost should you choose to proceed.
Project Approval & Scheduling
Once you receive your project plan:
- You may strike, adjust, or phase any line items
- A 50% project deposit is collected for the approved scope
- A timeline is provided and work is scheduled

Why This Process Matters
Photos are irreplaceable. Planning first ensures your project is handled safely, thoughtfully, and without rushing decisions.
