Picture Restoration Service - Restore Old Photos Professionally

Popular Questions

• Do you use AI, or is the work done manually?

  Every photo we restore is handled manually by an experienced digital artist. To fix old photos, we utilize modern software like Adobe Photoshop, and we do not rely on automated processes. The picture restoration service relies on a non-destructive process, using complex layering and masking techniques to correct damage. This ensures that the original integrity and details of your photo are preserved.
  
  Nowadays, AI is integrated into most applications. In certain situations where it provides a benefit, such as generating content or unblurring, we may use it to achieve the best photograph restoration. Our sole purpose is to deliver the highest-quality outcome, which can never be achieved with automated tools.
  
  Contrary to common belief, photograph restoration is not a one-click action and can take anywhere from 15 minutes to several hours, depending on its complexity.

• Do you specialize in highly complex photo repair?

  Yes. Our pricing tiers (Basic, Medium, Hard, Difficult) directly correspond to the severity of the damage.
  
  Our expert team routinely handles the most challenging cases, including photos affected by chemical stains, mold, fire damage, and silverfish marks.
  
  The photo repair process includes photo reconstruction of missing sections caused by severe tearing, meticulously removing damage, and filling missing parts. We focus on actions that restore lost details rather than simply blurring imperfections.

• Do you also provide film photo restoration?

  Absolutely. We restore film photographs of all types, including vintage black-and-white, color negatives, slides and even delicate cyanotype photo prints.

• Can you fix blurry photos?

  Not only can we fix them, but we can also restore blurry photos by sharpening and enhancing lost details, improving clarity while preserving the natural look of the original.If the photo is too blurry, complete image deblurring may not be possible.
  
  Removing or reducing blur is only achievable if you provide the clearest and sharpest digital version of your photo. Taking a blurry photo of an already blurry print only adds more blur, making recovery much harder. This helps you preserve as much quality as possible.

• What is the best way to digitize my photo?

  The quality of your digital file is essential for achieving the highest level of restoration. If the original photo is already damaged, capturing a low-quality image of it will add more unnecessary issues.
  
  The best options are:

  1. Lay your photo flat and photograph it in natural light, holding the camera at a 45-degree angle to avoid distortion, shadows or reflections.
  2. Have the photo professionally scanned at a minimum of 600 DPI. Make sure it's scanned with a dedicated photo scanner, not a document scanner.

• What size and format do I receive?

  We always deliver the digital image via the Track My Order page as a high-quality JPEG (longest side 5500 px, 300 dpi) in the sRGB color space, optimized for both printing and digital viewing.
  
  Upon request, we can provide the digital copy in a different format or at a higher resolution.

• Do you offer revisions?

  Customer satisfaction is our highest priority. We offer unlimited revisions until you are 100% happy with the result.
  
  After receiving your initial preview, you can request any changes directly through the Track My Order page.

• Is this a better alternative to "photo restoration near me"?

  Absolutely. Local “near me” shops may seem convenient, but they often deliver slow, low-quality results and rely on automated tools.
  
  Our service is different. U.S.-based digital artists with 15+ years of experience restore photos manually, handling complex damage like mold, severe tearing, and photo reconstruction.
  
  Everything is done digitally, without you having to leave home, saving time while preserving your precious memories with expert care.
