Being Positive About Negatives

What is Great Uncle Bert doing lost in your sock drawer? Why are your Grandmother’s cousins all hiding deep down at the bottom of the old family trunk? Can’t you see that all your relatives are still stuck way up there in the attic?The reason all of your relatives pictures are missing is because you have them all cooped up in a box, old envelope, or stuck with some photos of other relatives, these amazing old film negatives just waiting to be rediscovered, enjoyed and shared again.

Now is the time to dig through, ferret out, look for, conduct your own investigation, complete a loose end in your genealogy or simply search for those old negatives that have puzzled you for years.

So now is the time to find out!

Bring your priceless negatives - and yes, when you find out who they are, they will be priceless to you – color film negatives, black and white negatives, even glass negatives … and Bill Bateman of Bateman Photography will help you discover what you have been missing for years!

Bill has been helping us for the last 43 years, through his professional photography, maintain and often restore the life back in old photos. His passion for helping others “preserve the past for future generations” is a goal that he takes very seriously.

Because of a limited amount of time, we ask that you bring no more than 10 negatives, but don’t hesitate to bring more with you, just in case we have time to look at more.

And it might even be more productive if you bring along another relative to help you in this discovery process – like the old saying, “Two heads are better than one!
