Capture Those Old Photographs Before Memories are Gone Forever!

By Richard Williams


When is the right time to refurbish photos? It's virtually too late when there's boxes of photos or slides left in the loft; getting old. Damp, mildew or fungus could affect their condition and if they are in the loft, you've separated yourself and built a wall between you and your photos. Putting off the effort to climb around a filthy, dark loft is easy. But, that's where your memories lie. Give it a go. Scramble up there and bring a few boxes down with you. I'm positive that you will reminisce for many hours searching through old photos and remembering people, places, fun times and sad times. You may think "who's that person standing near Great Aunt Beth placing their arm on her shoulder?" If you could only see the image plainly through the faded photograph.

We've all kept them; and seen them. Black and white photos dulled to the colour of the paper base on one edge and on the other edge the image has departed below a silvery sheen.

Marriage photos shot in the 60s, 70s and 80s with an orange colour, even if they've been enclosed in the album for 20 to 30 years.

Holiday slides now destroyed by small black specs, and how did those scratches get on them?

A photo restore can in various cases restore images that can barely be seen on the print. Not each time, but frequently. The detail that can be uncovered is like magic.

Making images perceptible isn't the only thing; when a restoration photo is ordered you can inquire about editing and other services as well. For example:-

* Remove shoddy backgrounds; the telephone rod extending from the bride's head or the funny face by the young lad
* Make people disappear from group shots
* Alter colours of certain items
* Bring black and white photos to life with colour
* Smudge backgrounds
* Change 35mm slides to DVD
* Design canvas prints
* Insert or eliminate sepia toning
* Restore photos to create wonderful gifts, from framed canvas prints and coasters to your picture on mugs and enormous posters
* Ever thought about having your image put on a traditional deckchair?
* Mature school photos can be altered to add names or highlight friends

The list continues. If you refurbish your most significant photos, they will keep longer than your first photographs because of diverse printing systems, improved inks and dyes, and superior printing paper used today.

Shield your family's past and get those aged photos redone now with photo restoration services. While you're at it, how about a DVD backup?
