“A pleasure – I handed over stuff in multiple formats from old stereoscopic slides from the 1950s to crumbling photo albums from the 1920s. They digitized it all. I liked having an easy pick-up/drop-off location at Providence Picture Frame.”

Providence Family Memories Recovered:
“I found some of my old cassettes that had family videos from 2005, but I couldn’t watch it because I didn’t have a camera to insert the cassettes. I came across EverPresent and they were able to help. Because these cassettes had family videos and so many memories when I was kid, it was so emotional to see my grandmother in these videos! I was in tears! My grandmother passed away and I thought we had nothing but pictures of her.
If it wasn’t for EverPresent, those cassettes would have been in a box and never opened, but now I have memories I can watch for a lifetime! Now I can hear and watch my grandmother on these videos! I recommend EverPresent to everyone! They put a smile on my face and I was very satisfied with their service! So give them a try! I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.”

EverPresent Home & Office Pickup Service
Safe, doorstep pickups, with optional
virtual prep sessions available
An EverPresent project can involve heavy, disorganized bins and create countless decisions. It’s ok! Many clients ask us to visit their home to do the heavy lifting. Doorstep pickups are easily scheduled by clicking the button below. You will get a call before your appointment where you can let us know exactly where you left your project (doorstep, porch, etc) and we will safely pick it up. Everything is packed in weatherproof bins and barcoded before being taken to our state-of-the-art lab for processing.
If you’d like help getting oriented beforehand on what you have, how to prep or how to build a budget, you can now opt for a virtual prep session. One of our senior consultants will schedule a Zoom call with you to offer their expertise and to simplify the process of organizing and preparing for digitizing. Afterward, we will schedule a doorstep pickup to safely take the material to our lab and bring it back when the project is wrapped up.
“Very positive from beginning to the quality of the project at the end. We would definitely use EverPresent again when we are ready to digitize more of our collections.”

RHODE ISLAND’S IMPACT ON MODERN VISUAL MEDIA
War time photojournalist Al Rockoff was born in Pawtucket, RI in 1946. He became notable in his career of photojournalism particularly for his coverage of the Vietnam war. Though it’s said he did not support the depiction, he was portrayed by actor John Malkovich in the Academy Award winning war drama ‘The Killing Fields’ (1984).
Harry Callahan
Renowned photographer, photo essayist, and former Providence resident Harry Callahan (1912-1999) taught for 15 years at the Rhode Island School of Design. His diverse body of work includes street photography, portraiture, and architecture.
Silent Film
In 1914 the little known and short lived Eastern Film Corporation established its headquarters and film studio in Providence. It was at this location that some of the country’s first silent pictures were filmed. At its peak in 1915 it employed over 80 workers including actors, technicians, and directors. During the winter of the same year the company relocated to Florida. Various production companies continued to film at the Providence studio’s location through 1919.
Rhode Island born Thomase H. Ince was significant in his contribution to the modern film industry helping to set the stage for Hollywood film production as we know it today. Born in Newport in 1880, Ince helped to create the first major Hollywood studio facility. He went on to become the first mogal to build his own film studio and helped develop the now integral role of film producer which did not previously exist. By the time of his death at the early age of 44 he was already credited with making over 800 western films.
The Farrely Brothers
The comedy film directing Farrely brothers grew up in Cumberland, Rhode Island. These are the directors that were responsible for late 90s early 2000s goofball comedy classics like Dumb and Dumber and There’s Something About Mary.
Moonrise Kingdom
Did you know Wess Anderson’s period comedy Moonrise Kingdom was filmed at locations around the state? Filming sites included areas around Narragansett Bay, Fort Wetherill, Trinity Church, Yawgoon Scout Reservation, and Ballard Park in Newport. The offbeat and beautifully assembled film depicts an unconventional love story set at a 1960s summer camp in New England.
