I haven't blogged a lot this year as it has turned out to be a very busy year digitising and restoring images. I am fortunate to work with many interesting and wonderful people ranging from individuals with one off jobs to larger scale collections.
There were projects for all sorts of occasions - wedding anniversaries, birthday parties; individual and professional genealogical and historical research projects, small archives, artists and insurance claims. I provided images for specialist funeral headstones and digital and print displays. I scanned, photographed and reproduced a whole range of items - documents, artworks, photos, slides, negatives.... making discoveries along the way identifying a tintype and an ambrotype (both unusual in NZ) as well as a photo over 1metre in length.....
Mid year I undertook a course on the Care and Identification of Photographs with Gawain Weaver through the Northern States Conservation Centre to hone my skills in photographic and print identification and storage. I can now help my clients with preserving their original images as well as dating their photos....
We have also introduced a new service digitising 8mm and 16mm movies...
So from all of us at Carterworks, season's greetings and best wishes for the new year!
