How to Create a Family Photo Album: A Step-by-Step Guide

"I made the right choice with PhotoPanda! They did an amazing job with over 1,000 priceless family photos. The photos were safely shipped, scanned/enhanced within a few weeks and sent back to me. I didn't sign up for any of the special services, just a small box with basic scanning. The small box fit over 1,000 photos, mostly the older 3x5s , some polaroid and 4x6s. I could have fit more. They sent some packaging with the box to keep the photos in good shape. Within 3 weeks after shipping, my scans were complete and I received an email with a link to them on the cloud. A week later, I got my photos back. I spent quite awhile researching photo digitization services and picked PhotoPanda because they dont charge by the photo, but rather by the box and had good reviews/pricing. My photos would've cost twice as much as other companies. Of note, PhotoPanda was closed during June for vacation so the initial shipping of my box was delayed about a month. I did not mind this as I am not in a rush and its good an employer can provide that for its employees."

"I switched to PhotoPanda after trying another scanning service that markets like crazy under two different names. There was no competition. The scan quality is far superior, the communication was clearer, and the turnaround time was better. I'll be sending the rest of my 1,000 prints off to PhotoPanda in the next week or two."

"I love my scanned pictures. The high resolution is amazing! I also love the photo picture frame and the ease of use. I was delighted that they were able to get the orientation done so well!"

"I used photopanda a few years ago to suprize my mother on her big 60th Bday, we covertly snuck and mailed ALL of our several album photos to them, and they digitized everything. She broke down in tears when we surprised her with a frame that had nearly 3000 photos from our family's history. To say I am impressed and happy with this service is an understatement, the service was incredible, I got constant feedback, and the scanned photos were even restored! I got an incredible value deal. If you're reading this, PLEASE don't hesitate to use them, you will not be disappointed 😊 ❤️"

"I am so happy that I chose Photo Panda. I had a large number of photos given to me by various family members and I said I would get them scanned and give them a flash drive each with pictures. The whole process was very professional and easy. They sent me the box, I put the pictures in it and took to the post office. Immediately I was notified it was en route. Once Photo Panda received the box, I was also notified. A couple weeks later I was notified the photos were back on their way to me with the flash drives. They arrived just fine and now all of us have our flash drives with the photos. This was so much easier than I thought and I am very happy."

"We used PhotoPanda at the recommendation of a friend. The experience was excellent. Great communication from the beginning to the end. My wife felt comfortable sending off pictures to be scanned in. We can now see them in the Cloud. It was a terrific experience and we will use them again, as we find some more pictures that need to be scanned in! :) Highly recommend them!!"

"I am so pleased with PhotoPanda. I have a dozen very bulky photo albums that my children do NOT want. I took out every picture and scoured the internet looking for the most reasonable and professional photo scanning service - and PhotoPanda is it!! They digitized my entire collection of photos (1500) for a fraction of the price of other services. The digitized photos are scanned as is, and then a second set of files are provided where the digitized photos are enhanced. WONDERFUL - the enhanced digitized photos are amazing. Many of my photos are more than 50 years old, and they look like they were taken with modern cameras in the enhanced versions. All of my photos were returned, packed neatly and carefully in one small box - much easier to store! I received both a USB drive with all the photos (original scan and enhanced versions) and a code to access them online - which also was a breeze. There is no easier and more affordable way to have your photos scanned and preserved than PhotoPanda."

"What sets PhotoPanda apart is their attention to detail and their state-of-the-art scanning technology. Each photograph was handled with the utmost care to ensure no harm came to these precious memories. The resulting digital copies were nothing short of remarkable with an additional scan of the back of the photo which captured notes that Mom had made through the years. The scanned photos displayed a level of clarity and vibrancy that I was not expecting. PhotoPanda's commitment to delivering the highest resolution scans meant that even the smallest details and nuances of each image were faithfully preserved. The colors were vivid, and the images were free from any imperfections or distortions. Finally, the USB drive was impressive. Nice keepsake for Mom's old photos! Highly recommend without reservation. In fact, just sent my second box yesterday!"

"So awesome to have all my photos at my fingertips! Thank you PhotoPanda!"

"Great customer service! High quality. Quick turnaround"

"Fast, efficient, fabulous. Very highly recommended!"

"I was extremely skeptical about mailing irreplaceable photos to an unknown company, but i took a leap of faith and am so pleased with the results. My originals were returned in pristine condition and it was so easy to retrieve and download the file out of PhotoPanda's cloud site. We loved this service so much, we are putting together packets of photos to copy for Christmas gifts for our family members. I highly recommend this service. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed."

"I'm a photographer and my wife is a graphic designer so we are picky. We were extremely pleased with how quickly the photos were scanned and returned and the quality... especially the enhanced version... was better than we expected. We are already getting a second shipment ready to send in."

"Finally pulled the trigger on some classic photos from the aging parents...came across this service and took advantage first of the free envelope and into service. Love it! Fast return of the photos and I love the cloud where the digitized are stored, the elderly relatives had no problem accessing them and LOVED seeing and sharing all their old memories!! I'll be using this service AGAIN, as it's so affordabe and simple!"

"PhotoPanda is superb. It’s professional, user friendly and they exceeded all expectations. The service and quality was great and easy. The process, final product and service was excellent. They nailed it."
