I started TommyTapes because I believe old home movies deserve to be watched, not forgotten in a box somewhere.
I was born in Dallas and returned to DFW after living around the country. My background is in television and digital journalism, and today I work in marketing and public relations. I’ve always loved converting my own family’s home videos, and now I want to help preserve yours, too.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about bringing your memories back to life.
You will drop off all tapes at my home in Argyle in Denton County. For planning purposes, I live near I-35W and FM 407.
I prefer you drop them off! That way you don’t risk losing your precious memories in the mail.
Yes. You will drop off your tapes in a marked container at my home. I will check it daily and bring in all items inside my home. I also have cameras surrounding my home for extra security.
Right now, expect a three to four-week turnaround (but hopefully less!).
No. Just like film and tapes, DVDs will be the next media to become obsolete. Saving videos on the cloud or USB Drive will last much longer.
So much! You can watch your videos via the internal Dropbox media player. You can share the link with your friends and family. You can download the files and then re-upload to your personal YouTube channel or other social media.
Yes! If you have more than 20 tapes, I’ll give you 20% off. Contact me and I’ll invoice you. (Do not use the regular form for this service.) Please note the two-week deadline does not apply for large orders. Expect a little longer wait time.
