ScanSquirrel

Hi, I'm Max. I live in Glassell Park. In 2025 I watched the Eaton fire tear through Altadena and thought about all the family photos that burned with it — knowing most hadn't been digitized.

That's why I built ScanSquirrel. I take the photos sitting in shoeboxes and turn them into archive-level scans and enhanced versions that go directly into your Google Photos / Apple Photos timeline.

I come to you.

I'm your neighbor and I come to your home. We go through your collection together and organize your photos into batches by the events and eras of your life. I take them back to my studio and scan and enhance everything within 48 hours. Your originals come back organized in a fireproof, water-resistant case. You get a link to your archive-level master scans for long-term preservation, and a ready-to-upload link that drops your enhanced photos directly into your Google Photos or Apple Photos timeline.

Your shoebox plus ScanSquirrel equals organized photos and digital access

I build your archive.

You get your photos secured.

Squirrels stash. They organize. They never forget where they put things.

ScanSquirrel is built around those same principles: gathering what matters, organizing it carefully, and keeping it safe for the long haul.

Simple and transparent.
