Digital Archiving
Scanning photos & digitizing Tapes
Preserve the Stories of your family
Local, careful digitizing of your photos, films, and home videos—make them easy to enjoy and impossible to lose.
Those boxes of tapes, discs, and old photo envelopes aren’t clutter. They’re your family’s history. At Indiana Mosaic, we help you recapture those memories—safely and simply—by converting legacy media into high-quality digital files that you and your family can all access.
Drop everything off locally in Yorktown, Indiana; talk with a real person about what you have, and let our team handle the rest.
What We Digitize
Everything at One Place
We specialize in converting a wide range of legacy media to modern digital formats:
- Loose Photos (sizes up to 8×10)
- 35mm negatives & Slides
- Home Video Tapes (VHS, MiniDV, and other video cassettes)
- Data CDs & DVDs containing photos or video files
- Home-authored DVDs (weddings, funerals, events, slideshows)
- We do not transfer copyright-protected movies or commercial discs
How It Works
- Bring in Your Box – Schedule a time to bring in your tapes, discs, photos, and negatives. We’ll review what you have and talk through the best options for your project.
- We Log and Label Everything – Each item is labeled and checked into a project list, so you know what we received and how it’s being handled. No mystery box shipping, no wondering where your memories are.
- Professional Digitizing & Cleanup – We convert your media to modernly accessible high-quality digital files using dedicated scanners and playback decks. If desired, we can apply light correction for color and exposure or ai restoration enhancements.
- Organized, Shareable Delivery – You get your memories back as organized digital files—ready to watch, share, and archive. Your originals are returned to you with your order.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take
Turnaround time depends on project size and current volume. Small projects can often be completed within a week, while large multi-box or estate projects may take longer. We’ll give you a timeline estimate during an inquiry or when we log your items.
What if tapes or discs are too damaged to access?
We’ll do an initial inspection and let you know if we have any concerns and what’s realistic. If something cannot be recovered, there is no charge for that segment of the project.
Can you work with commercial movies?
We only digitize home movies and personal content. Commercial, copy-protected DVDs and tapes are not eligible for transfer.
Can my whole family access the files?
Yes. We can organize your archive so that sharing is simple—whether that’s a shared drive, a family folder, or a hosted “Memory Vault.”
