I was absolutely thrilled with the service I received from Paul at Solihull Photographer. My mom had several old cine films in her loft which she had wanted converting into something we could all watch, but never quite knew how to go about doing it. After finding Paul, I took these precious memories to him and he has bought the past back to life. It was quite emotional seeing family from almost 60 years ago, some of whom are no longer with us. Its one thing seeing photographs, but to see these people moving and smiling was something else. The care that Paul took in converting these films onto a memory stick has been really appreciated. Great communication and competive prices. I shall definitely be using Paul's services again for the remaining cine films. I would highly recommend.

Paul managed to transfer short films on VHS tape to a file which I could save and view - it was great to see something that could have been lost. He was very helpful and explained what he would do and he delivered the tape and file to me within a week.

Paul converted a box of my uncles reel to reel tapes. Paul went above and beyond to ensure he did a professional and thorough job. Very happy with the results and looking forward to listening to over 40 hours of music recordings! Thanks so much Paul!

Paul did a fantastic job converting my old Hi8 and VHS tapes into digital MP4 format. His service was really quick and professional, and the results are excellent — both the audio and video quality have come out far better than I expected. These tapes held really valuable, cherished memories, and thanks to Paul they’re now preserved for the future and viewable on all devices. On top of that, the convenience of his location just off the M42 made everything even easier. Huge thanks to Paul for his hard work and for making the whole process so straightforward. Highly recommended!

I found Paul by doing a quick google search of companies who could transfer my old video files and photos to a USB. His reviews were outstanding and he didn’t disappoint. From start to finish he kept me posted on what he was doing and how long it would take. It involves a level of trust providing your treasured tapes and CDs with priceless memories to someone new but he kept everything safe as if they were his own. The result was 18 years of memories that I was able to share with my kids from their childhood and what a joy it was for all of us. I couldn’t recommend Paul enough….and from a price point he was very reasonable for the large undertaking he had from my catalogue of old videos and photos.

I needed a cine film transfered onto a USB. It was a rush job for our Golden Wedding anniversary celebrations....the film was of our wedding! Paul did it for us in super quick time, which was so good of him and much appreciated. The quality was excellent from a 50 year old film! I can thoroughly recommend Paul, he is so easy to deal with and does a great job.

Paul did an excellent job converting a large number of old video tapes consisting of family footage collected over the past 30 years. He went above and beyond to finish in time for a 60th birthday celebration. A very professional job at an excellent price. If you’ve got precious memories trapped on ageing tapes, I’d 100% recommend Paul.

Paul was recommended by my cousin, Vits, who had seen his ad on FB. My experience of Paul has been outstanding. Time is precious, Paul gets this. Dealing with him has been simple, easy, effective, efficient & he has provided a brilliant service. I happen to have hoarded tons of minidiscs, 8mm camcorder tapes, audio tapes, all containing family videos, sentimental hymns sang by those who are no longer with us. I inherited a lot of the audio tapes from my grandmother whom I lost 15 years ago. Paul converted these for me & provided on a single USB. I'm not tech-savvy, so Paul's service, explanation has been enormously valuable. I've been able to watch the videos & listen to the music with my family, while driving & on my travels which is so therapeutic. All thanks to Paul. Highly recommend.

Would highly recommend Paul to convert your old video recordings to digital, We told Paul our worries regarding our tapes of my beautiful mom who is no longer with us, Paul was very reassuring to both me and my Dad and the finished results are fantastic, I have some more old recordings and I will not take them anywhere else other than to Paul to get these converted to digital too. Thankyou again Paul for keeping our precious memories alive x
