Custom Scrapbooks
"Scrapbooks hold yesterday's memories
with tomorrow in mind...."
All Connect-The-Shots
scrapbooks are custom-crafted and begin with a personal
consultation. We'll listen to your ideas, learn your favorite
colors and styles, and determine the exact way you want your photos presented.
If the scrapbook is intended as a gift, we'll want to learn all we can about the
recipient as well.
We use only the highest-quality albums and supplies from leading
suppliers, and all of our work is on acid-free paper. We'll even hand-letter
each page in your book with your captions and narration (but we recommend you do the
handwriting yourself – years from now, you'll be glad you did.)
Because all our designs are one-of-a-kind, we have no fixed pricing, unlike
the many scrapbook factories on the web.
Come chat with us about your requirements and we'll gladly
provide you with a free quote. Simple
7"-x-7"
albums begin at about $125 complete, and
12"-x-12"
albums at about $225.

Photo Mosaics
"Life is but a montage of memories..."
Photo mosaics come in many forms,
but all have one thing in common: hundreds or thousands of small digital
images meticulously arranged to form a single master image.
Photo mosaics are a beautiful way to put your entire
digital library on display, but creating good ones takes
patience and practice. Browse our online
galleries and
note the fine level of detail in our designs. Every
tile is hand-prepared by cropping and sizing your original photos
one by one. We don't cut corners by relying on duplicated tiles
or heavy overlays that blur the quality of the original photos.
What's the point if your mosaic only looks good from a distance?!
In addition to the mosaics for sale in our galleries, we also produce
custom mosaics starting at $75 plus printing. Schools, teams and organizations:
pool your photos! Mosaics not only are great for commemorating special
occasions and milestones, they make excellent fund-raising items too.

Videos and Slideshows
Bring your memories to the big (or little) screen!
We'll take your digital photos and home movies, sequence them, add cool transitions
and special effects, and set it all to your favorite music. Whether it's
a celebration of a special day or a personal milestone, a unique
presentation for your business, or a through-the-years
chronicle of a lifetime remembered, we'll craft a custom video that's perfect
for your needs.
Videos are often intended as gifts, so as with our scrapbooks we'll
want to know as much as we can about the recipient. Kids and teens enjoy
being the stars of their own MTV-style pop music videos, while adults usually
prefer gentler slideshows. We can take any digital photo or movie format
as the source, including VHS, and we'll produce either fully-packaged DVDs or
digital videos like MPEGs or WMVs suitable for online viewing.
Prices start at $99.

Other Products and Services
Along with our digital photo creations, we
offer a number of specialized editing and printing services. We're
experts at digital audio processing, especially at transfering old audio recordings
(LPs, 78s, and tapes) to digital and cleaning them so they sound like new.
We'll scan your old photos and retouch them professionally. We offer top-quality
photo printing in sizes up to 12-by-18. In a nutshell: if it involves digital
multimedia editing, Connect-The-Shots is your one-stop studio.

Are you a hobbyist looking to improve your scrapbooking
skills, or would you like to learn how to produce photo mosaics and videos
of your own? All it takes is patience, skill and practice – if you can
supply the patience, we can help you develop the rest. Quite honestly, teaching
is the part of our business that we enjoy the most! We host afternoon
