How does restoration pricing work?
Restoration complexity varies by image condition. Light fixes and heavy retouching are scoped separately so you only pay for the detail level needed.

Photo restoration
for the images that matter most.
Fading, scratches, tears, and soft focus don’t have to be permanent. We carefully restore damaged family photos so they look like themselves again—ready to share, print, or place in a memory book.

Real results
Before and after that honor the original.
Time, humidity, and sunlight take a toll. We repair cracks, remove scratches, correct severe fading, and sharpen soft details—without erasing the authentic character of the portrait.
Choose light cleanup for a few hero images, or a deeper restore for keepsakes you plan to print large or include in a heritage book. We quote by complexity so you stay in control.

Restoration FAQ
Common Questions.
Do you restore in black and white or color?
Both. We can restore a faithful black-and-white version and, when requested, carefully revive color while respecting the original character of the photo.
Should I scan before restoration?
Yes. High-quality scanning creates the foundation for restoration. We can scan and restore as one project so nothing is left to chance.
Will you change the look of the photo?
Our goal is repair and clarity—not a different picture. We preserve likeness, era, and character while fixing damage.
Have a portrait that needs saving?
Send a photo or description and we’ll recommend a restoration level that fits your goals.
