Who are we?

We're Ethan and Tony, two friends inspired to offer this service when we discovered that the photos of our families were fading away.

We captured and restored these photos, and now our family’s memories have been digitised and preserved for generations to come. This experience inspired us to offer this service to others. 

  • “I can’t believe how easy Snapshot were to deal with! Fantastic service and they kept me informed every step of the way! They also stuck to my budget! I’ve used other businesses but they were twice the price and not so customer focused! Highly recommend.”

    Kayley H

  • "Fabulous service - turned around very quickly, and great quality."

    Kat S

  • "I dropped off the photos and within a week they were digitised. Nothing was too much trouble... I trusted Tony and Ethan with these precious memories and they delivered an amazing result. With great appreciation from Trish and the Bos family (Melbourne)."
