Photo Restoration

More art than technology, black and white images can be digitally hand colored to bring out original color detail - or to create a brand new look.  Or if fading or staining of a color photo is extreme, then selected areas can be targeted.

Photo Colorization

Faded or discolored images can happen through time, sun exposure or ozone, or because of poor initial chemical processing. Our photo restoration techniques can make things look like new! For difficult cases, we hand color.

Who we are

Our Pricing Promise

Peter co-founded Your Story Here LLC with his wife Jane. It is a boutique documentary production company that specializes in video biography and personal history documentary as well as video memorials and event & tribute videos. He is an expert in visual arts. When creating client's video projects, he discovered that many of their old treasured photos were too badly damaged to be included in the project - and needed repair. Putting his digital arts to use with Photoshop, PhotoFixRestore was born as a stand-alone service!

DID YOU KNOW... We love what we do! Whether it's talking to clients about their unique photo refurbishment needs, giving (free) opinions and estimates about how best to deal with an old photo, or working on challenging images and using tried and tested (and state-of-the-art) or new photo repair techniques we are deeply appreciative of your trust and energized by the responsibility.

We love emailing you a before-and-after preview of your precious picture, we take special pride in our custom photo printing using archive quality, cotton-based and other specialty papers, and we are even happy to pay for return shipping with Fedex, USPS (with bar coding and full tracking), UPS or whatever is most secure and makes the most sense. Also know that when we give an estimate it is firm - you will NEVER get a follow up call once we have your photo doubling the price! And we aim to keep our rates lower than our major competitors.

DID YOU ALSO KNOW? Photo repair and photo restoration has come a long way since the days of brush-applied dyes and inks to a black and white printed silver halide photograph.  Today, images are scanned to create high resolution digital files which are then worked on with advanced image editing software such as Photoshop. Basic steps involve adjusting contrast, correcting color casts, boosting saturation, straightening and cropping.  Advanced photo repair and restoration fills in dust spots, corrects for tears and surface damage, and selectively colors stains and areas of severe degradation. While technology provides the tools, the best photo repair and restoration is an artistic endeavor involving aesthetic judgment.
