Photo Restoration Service |
Please try my photo restoration service. Old slides and prints are often scratched and dirty; I can scan them, clean up the defects on my computer, adjust the color, help faded images to be more vivid, and bring out the detail in dark photos. I will send you the digital files, and I can have prints made in either family quality or art quality. I can also create entire albums or portfolios, and I'm happy to customize a project to your wishes.
Cost is $50/hour plus shipping and handling; most slides can be cleaned and color-adjusted for between $8 and $15, depending on condition. Minimum charge per order: $25. I will provide a quote in advance of doing the work, and I will handle your originals with the utmost care. See some examples of digital corrections below. Contact me at lichen@idiom.com.
This is an enlarged detail from a 35 mm slide. The original is over 50 years old and is scratched and dirty. The color has faded and lost its richness. |
The same image after restoration. |

On the left is a scan of an old photo of Mother Teresa. On the right is the same photo after digital cleaning. I left most of the torn edges intact for the sake of authenticity. |
