What do you call a person who works on old home movies & paper photographs?

What do you call a person who works on paper? I’m not talking about someone who operated a camera. Photo Gallery: Scans, edits, and creates from photos and old video (like VHS or Super 8).

As suggested by Mick, how about an archivist?

From M-W:

archivist : A person in charge of archives

Archivist : a repository or collection especially of information

Example:

My sister Jean is my family archivist. She maintains our home movies and paper photographs. We use her all the time. She edits, scans, creates, and shares videos and albums in modern electronic formats.

What is your opinion on what you mean by “the person”?

This person performs multimedia converter if they take old photos/videos and convert them to modern formats.

If they are making art or decorative objects (collages, scrapbooks, decoupage, etc.) then I don’t think there is a specific name for that

sub-genre.
