Preparing Your Photograph

Start with the best copy available

The quality of the source image has a major effect on what can be recovered. For the best result:

  • Scan the original photograph when possible.
  • Use the highest resolution available.
  • Avoid screenshots and compressed social media copies.
  • If scanning is unavailable, photograph the original evenly in good light.
  • Keep the physical original safe. All restoration work is completed digitally.

The Process

From damaged original to finished file

  1. 01

    Send the Photograph

    Provide the highest-quality scan or digital copy available.

  3. 03

    Restore

    I repair damage, rebuild detail where possible, and correct tone or color.

  4. 04

    Review and Deliver

    After the agreed revisions, you receive the completed high-resolution digital file.

Training and Experience

Built on years of Photoshop work

I began learning Photoshop in middle school and continued through advanced coursework at Santa Rosa Junior College, where I earned a Photoshop skills certificate. Since then, I have applied those techniques to family photographs, creative projects, professional images, and restoration work.
