We discussed her expectations before I started – I wasn’t sure if there was enough information remaining in the original to get a sharp detailed result. Her priority was to enhance her grandmother’s face as much as possible. It’s important to understand that sometimes there just isn’t enough detail left in a photograph to restore, and that is why its important to digitize and restore old treasured family photos as early as possible. Another couple years and this young bride’s image might have faded from view forever.

This was the resulting photo of the entire wedding party.

Although it is certainly not as perfect as we’d have both liked to see, enough of the brides face was restored to give my client a reasonable likeness of her grandmother.
