Digital Photo or Art Restoration

Why keep all of your precious family memories in a shoebox?
Don't you want to keep your momentos safe and to be able to share them with family members? I can scan, restore, save your photos and documents on a disk in several sizes. You can then print them, have a photo shop or online photo processor print them - even on canvas.
Paintings can be 'restored' this way as well - see below.

Below is an old family photo that needed some serious restoration - before and after.

Left is a small, old photo that was scanned with its old-fashioned border. It was then uploaded online to a photo processor and the client was mailed an 8x10 photo to frame and hang.

Below left is an old negative I scanned, and the photo I had printed.

Below is a photo-collage done of several family photos of children. This collage was printed on a home printer and used in a scrapbook journal written about the family history.

You can have them printed as photos or take the disk to a copy shop and have them print the images out on their color copier. As you can see, there are plenty of creative things you can do with your scanned pictures.

Below is an example of another restoration job I did - this time of a painting. The oil paint was flaking off the painting and it was getting worse with every passing day. After taking a high resolution digital photo, I literally rebuilt the missing pieces pixel by pixel. Then the final image was printed on canvas - better than the original!
