Time can warp our memories, just as proximity to an active volcano can warp treasured collections of action figures. That’s where DVD Your Memories comes in to permanently preserve photos, videos, film reels, or cassettes in a variety of high-quality digital formats. When customers step into any California or Colorado DVD Your Memories location, a lab coat–clad technician gently walks them through the preservation options, which include CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, or hard drives. As per company policy, that very same technician will return the original source material, along with a digital replica of the customer’s choice. DVD Your Memories can also take media to the next level with additional services, which include basic video editing, photo restoration, chapter creation, and superimposing your favorite president into your birthday party.

Julie Diebolt Price, president of JDP Photography, puts friendly faces on websites and brochures by crafting portraits for corporations, entrepreneurs, and organizations. In addition to helping clients such as Standard Pacific Homes, Women Helping Women, and Orange County Rescue Mission, Julie chronicles programs and events for the National Association of Women Business Owners, and she rubs elbows with august institutions such as the Professional Photographers of California and the Professional Photographers of America. Despite a successful professional career—her portfolio is filled with group portraits, product images for advertisements, and stock photos—she has not neglected her artistic side: a piece she dubbed “Tableau at Badling” landed a spot in the PPA’s 2010 International Photographic Competition general collection. When she isn't snapping photos, she teaches others how to use cameras such as DSLR, point-and-shoot, and camerae obscurae.

Providing full-service dry cleaning to the Orange County area since 1950, Kona Cleaners has tidied more than a semi-century worth of suits, space suits, jeans, space jeans, pope robes, dresses, and sticky gorilla costumes.

Specializing in cleaning unusual materials such as caviar sequins and bread-bowl hats, Kona also expertly performs alterations ($10 average for a pant hem) and employs environmentally conscious cleaning methods. Their use of wet cleaning when possible and high-tech cleaning equipment is buttressed by a sophisticated sorting system and a well-trained staff that ensures each garment is restored to its fresh-off-the-particle-assembler condition.
