If you have any old or damaged photos that are precious and needing to be restored and preserved, you've come to the right place! Most images can be fully restored, and some can even be made better than original!

How I Restore Photographs

Every photo is unique in terms of condition and the steps for a good restoration service varies from photo to photo. I use Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, ACDsee and other graphics software as needed.

The method I use is called "squeezing" the extra details, as much as possible, from a damaged image. I apply a "histogram" to show the fine divisions of colors. Once this is accomplished, the image is magnified to identify the flaws more closely. I look for grime, dust, texture flaws, tears, scratches, etc. I evaluate the extent of the work to be done and quote accordingly.
