Prices are based on the complexity of the work to be done. When you send your photograph(s) you will be given a quote by e-mail and you will be able to decide if you want me to continue with your work. Most photographs usually cost between £14 and £45 and all prices include return P+P (except for non-UK orders) and one free print so there are no hidden charges.

Complex Restoration
What was done: Removal of the scratches and creases and repair of edges, which included reconstructing the whole of the right side. To further improve the photo it was brightened, the contrast was adjusted and the background was blackened.
What was done: The original black & white photo has been coloured. It is helpful when colouring photos if you can provide a colour photo of the person or place in the black & white photo to help to get the colours correct. If this is not possible then please remember to write on your order form anything you would like to be a particular colour eg. hair, eyes, clothes, buildings etc.
What was done: The two photos were both restored by removing the scratches and creases and by adjusting the brightness and contrast. The photos were then resized and carefully merged, so that you would never know that the two people were not photographed together. The customer also asked to have the new photo tinted a sepia colour.
What was done: The main work on this photo was obviously the reconstruction of the damage to the bottom right hand corner. Please note that reconstruction can only be done if it is possible to recreate what is missing.
What was done: Each different area of the photo has been selected and the colour balance, brightness and contrast is individually adjusted to overall enhance the look of the photo.
This is a unique idea for a present, or to remember a special person, day, event, holiday etc. You can send me as many photos as you wish and I will arrange them into a wonderful compilation with your choice of text added. Compilation prices vary depending on how many photos you want in the compilation and what size you want the final compilation to be.
What was done: The original background has been replaced and text has been added.. The glare caused by the camera flash on the dog's eye and hair has also been removed.
What was done: Three people have been removed and the couple have been brought together. The glasses and table number have also been removed and the colours have been improved. Please note that objects or people can only be removed if it is possible to reconstruct what would be behind them or it.
What was done: A very common problem of red eyes has been fixed. This example has also had some small dots removed, had the brightness and contrast adjusted and had the graininess reduced.
Cost: £14
Panoramas
What was done: Two photos have been merged together to create a spectacular panorama. The colours, brightness and contrast has been adjusted so the photos match. Please note that panorama creation work best when the original photos have a small overlap.
