We at Phix-Pix believe that as we go through life creating magical moments turning them into memories. The journey is often documented by photographs immortalising our youth, special occasions, relatives, pets all preserved in our treasured album. But there is always that one photograph that stands out from the rest that has been loved so much it is now worn and torn and patched with sticky tape. This is the photograph that symbolises that loved one, and now its time to give that image a bit of care and restoration.

Restoration and photo retouching

Restoration and photo retouching is extensive. I have taken damaged photographs, digitised them and then used advanced computer software to improve contrast, sharpness, and colour levels while eliminating flaws like scratches, damaged areas, and wrinkles. Take a look at the results in the Gallery.
These photographs have been badly damaged from years of abuse. Deep scratches, scuffs, folds and cracks along with fading and discolouring are present. Restoration is the borrowing of useful information from undamaged areas of the photo, then digitally clone or repaint into the areas where information is damaged or altogether missing. After restoration, the same photo looks great.
With a little time and experience a photo can be returned to its original state, but retouching is just the beginning. Once your photo is restored, it can be digitally printed onto quality canvas, photo paper and a variety of gifts such as cups, mouse mats, T-shirts, puzzles and many more.
