Home Movie Conversion

I'm excited to announce my business is expanding to include "old" media conversion service! 
Putting these precious "old" memories (1995 is now considered old?!) onto DVD's and, even better, onto Cloud storage where they can be accessed via a home computer or smart phone with endless possibilities for duplication, sharing and enjoyment!

I'm sending my first package off today and I can't wait to receive it back and have a family movie night starring my kids!  I'll share some snippets with you too (don't worry, this is not your 1950's style boring Slide Show...I'll actually be able to share snippets from the DVD via Facebook, email, blog, etc... ).  Eventually I want to transfer all of my old media over but I'm so excited to see how this all works that I decided to send in a few 8mm tapes that I had taken during My Hero's deployment back in 2006.


Being a "single mom" to 4 kiddos during those 9 months was very challenging. I'm not sure I was very good at it. In fact, I think some of the videos might show me pretty exhausted and maybe a bit impatient....but I kind of remember maintaining a sense of humor (at least I hope I did) and it was a precious time for our family as we went through that separation having "daddy" gone. 

The company I am partnering with is called Legacy Republic.  Does that sound like something out of Star Wars?  

"Nap or do not, there is no try."

(That's my cat Buddy, by the way....you can follow him on Instagram @napfordays   
Don't you think he would make a great Legacy Republic mascot?)

So it's definitely not Star Wars affiliated....it's actually a legit company in California (this California girl says Yay!!) with the technology, know how and careful attention to detail that helped me decide to offer this service to my clients.  


I'll keep you posted on how the videos turn out!  

Happy Scrappin' and Memory Keepin'

  1. So do we send you our film and you take it from there? Can they do slide conversion too?

  3. My website for the service is donnalyn.legacyrepublic.com Local clients will drop off their media to me and I'll take care of it for them. But for those who live further away, you can do it yourself through my website link and mail it directly to LR. But call me so I can walk you through it - we need to be VERY careful how we package & mail it & who we let deliver it so that it arrives safely! Yes, Slides too!
