Scanning Photos from Deerfield's Fishing Pier Community

- Color correction by human restorers
- Handles all print sizes and formats
- Just 10 minutes from our Boca studio
Slide Collections from Southeast Broward
Retirees and long-time residents of Deerfield Beach have slide collections from decades of travel, family events, and community life. 35mm slides from the 1960s through 1990s are past the point where color dyes remain stable, and every year in Florida accelerates the fading process.
- 35mm slides and negative strips scanned
- Color restoration for faded dyes
- Dust and scratch removal

- Drop-off or ship to Boca studio
Deerfield Beach's Media Preservation Challenges
Deerfield Beach faces serious environmental threats to media preservation:
Sitting directly on the Atlantic coast, Deerfield Beach endures constant salt air exposure and average humidity above 75%. Hurricanes Wilma (2005) and Irma (2017) caused flooding and wind damage throughout the city. The barrier island neighborhoods and areas east of the Intracoastal are in active FEMA flood zones. Beachside condos along A1A, homes in Century Village, and storage units near Hillsboro Boulevard are especially vulnerable. The combination of ocean proximity, aging housing stock, and subtropical climate makes Deerfield Beach one of the most challenging environments for storing old media.
This isn't a someday project. Every year of delay means more irreplaceable content lost to moisture, mold, and mechanical failure. Your family's memories deserve preservation now.
We built Forever Studios because every family deserves to have their memories preserved the right way, by real people, with real equipment, under one roof. Deerfield Beach families trust us because we treat their collections the way we'd treat our own.
