About
Hi, I’m Maryellen, the creator of Timeless Family Treasures! For as long as I can remember, I’ve been exploring my grandparents’ houses looking at old photos, old yearbooks, anything I could get my hands on. I’ve always had a fascination with history and seeing photos or videos of the past only makes that excitement grow.
​
When my grandfather turned 90, I put together an hour-long video of his life. There were photos, testimonials, videos, messages and stories from loved ones. Watching it together, we laughed, we cried, and he’s watched it countless times since that first viewing.
Through that project, came the idea for Timeless Family Treasures. Having countless family memories digitized has brought so much joy to my family - there are photos that my aunts and uncles have never seen before and there are stories being shared because of these memories.
​
I want to bring the same joy to your families and it couldn’t be easier for you! Book a FREE consultation so we can discuss what types of media you have and what you’d like me to do with them. It can be anywhere from simply digitizing and organizing the images/videos to making a video like I did for my grandpa.
Timeless Family Treasures vows to keep family memories alive!

Here's how easy it is for you:
​
Step One:
Book a FREE consultation to discuss your media and what you want your final product to look like.
Step Two:
Physical media review - the photos are counted and the videos are checked to make sure they're playable. I'm also happy to provide free previews of the videos, if you have old discs or tapes and you're not sure what's on them.
Step Three:
Once everything is reviewed, a project estimate will be sent. Typically, this estimate reflects the highest possible price point. Common reasons that the final invoice could be lower include duplicate photos being found or videos being significantly shorter than expected.
Step Four:
Upon approval of the estimate, the digitization process will begin. Every Friday, emails are sent to update you on your project's progress.
Step Five:
Once the project is completed, you'll receive a link to the Google Drive (I'm also happy to discuss different output locations, if you'd prefer).
Step Six:
At this point, an invoice will be sent, summarizing the total cost and content of your final product.
