Convenient for Brisbane CBD, Fortitude Valley, New Farm, Newstead, Teneriffe, Bowen Hills, Kelvin Grove, Red Hill, Paddington, Wilston, Grange and surrounding inner-north suburbs along the Lutwyche Road corridor. ## What We Scan in Brisbane RetroMedia uses Capture Australia's proprietary glare-removal technology to digitise bound photo albums, loose prints, and photos or prints behind glass or plastic, including large-format and oversized prints and framed portraits up to 45cm x 70cm. Slides, negatives, film of any format and VHS tapes aren't part of our photo camera scanning technology, but partner shops may be able to help with these separately, so it's worth reaching out to them. Albums stay assembled and photos stay in their sleeves throughout the entire scanning process. ## About Our Brisbane Partner RetroMedia is a family-run business with over fifteen years of experience in media transfer and photo digitisation, and all photo scanning is performed in-house at the Windsor location. Trained staff handle every album personally and will walk you through the process at drop-off. Photos do not get sent interstate, do not pass through a sorting facility and do not leave the partner premises at any stage. ## What to Expect, Pricing and Turnaround At drop-off the team will inspect your albums, give you an estimated photo count and an indicative quote. You receive high-resolution JPEG files delivered via a secure cloud link, ready for reprints, photobooks, sharing on Google Photos and long-term backup. A USB drive is available on request. Pricing depends on your collection size and type, and the final count is confirmed before payment. For large collections of 500 photos or more, scanning can often work out to around one dollar per photo or less. Ask at drop-off about scanning your whole collection. Turnaround is typically two to three weeks depending on volume and current queue length. ## Brisbane FAQs ### Where can I scan photos in Brisbane?
