Top Quality Framing For Your Restored Photograph

by Richard Haines
09 Aug

There has been a very big increase in the number of photographs I have received because going through the masses of old family photographs is a job that is so often put off by many people due to lack of time and for these past few months have provided  the time and the environment to tackle the task. It’s always much more fun than people expect. And the rewards are huge.

I am now very excited to be able to offer you a top quality bespoke framing service. This means I can offer custom size prints, mounts and frames to show off your restored photographs in the best way possible so they can receive the attention and admiration they deserve.

The most popular moulding is the solid wood satin black or mahogany with single or double mounts.

I can also provide multi aperture frames – the one below is 20in x 16in with two landscape format 8in x 6in prints and two portrait format 5in x 7in prints. There are several multi aperture options available and the frames can be any size you choose. Heavier mouldings are available for larger sizes.

I can even show you what your photograph will look like before you order including all the relevant dimensions. This is particularly useful if you want a specific frame size to fit a specific space in your house.

9 Great Ways To Transform Your Photographs

by Richard Haines
10 Oct

With Christmas now on the horizon here are some ideas for a unique gift that’s ideal for those who can be tricky to find something a bit different.

Here just a few examples of the many ways I can transform your photographs….


If you have a photograph that has faded in its frame, it can be restored and re-coloured.

 

 


Two or more photographs can be combined and you can choose the people you want in the finished photo

 

 


Family groups can be ‘adjusted’ to include or exclude people!

 

 


Couples can finally be together in the same photograph.

 

 


Snapshots of pets can be made into portraits or montages

 

 


Treasured photographs that have suffered years of damage can be restored to their original state.

 

 


Combine a favourite photograph with a more interesting background.

 

 


Create a family montage from a selection of favourite photographs
 


Not sure which photos to use but can see the potential?
A Photographs Forever Gift Voucher of any value could be the answer.

Restoration of Photographs, Artwork, Certificates, Children’s Artwork, Negatives and Slides by Photographs Forever

by Richard Haines
15 Sep

Photograph restoration is very popular, although you may be interested to know that I also scan and restore many other things

 

For example I restored a drawing that, over the years had become torn, dog eared and generally in very poor condition. I restored the artwork and made an enlargement on archive paper and mounted this in a plain black wooden frame.
Here’s the before and after:

Zzzz

Do you have precious unique documents such as Birth Certificates, School Reports, Qualification Certificates, Death Certificates, Wills or any other documents that should be digitally preserved and restored  shared with other members of the family? If you are creating your family album or your family tree, you could add images of important documents.

Documents

What about the children’s artwork? Their wonderful creative drawings and paintings are nearly always done on the cheapest paper, the paint fades, they get crumpled up and torn. Save them now. I will scan them and then you’ll images you can print, put into photo books and share with the family

Child Drawing Composite

Do you have negatives of possibly precious photographs and lost the prints?
Do you have a collection of negatives and you’ve no idea what the images on them are of?

Negs-Slides

I can scan your negatives whether they are 35mm or 127, 126, 120 roll film or even the really old glass negatives and provide you with positive images as data files, which I can then restore if necessary or just print or enlarge your favourites.

You may have a large number of 35mm or 6cm slides from the 70’s and 80’s but no longer have a projector that works. Let me scan and improve them so you can enjoy them again.  They are often really high quality and make great enlargements.

So don’t delay, wherever you are, whatever town, city or county, look out those precious documents, drawings, artwork, negatives, slides and of course those fantastic old family photographs and let me restore them, repair them, retouch them so you and your family and friends can enjoy them forever.

Wonderful Photograph Restored To Former Glory

by Richard Haines
03 Apr

I was sent this very old photograph that had been rolled op for many years and had become so dry that became cracked and torn and of very limited use to enjoy. With some care and attention this is now digitally restored to its original condition

A Successful Present for Mum! Restore and Colourise a Black And White Photograph

by Richard Haines
17 Jan

I received this email from Elissa B after she had agreed to go ahead with her photo restoration:
“You will be making my mom a very happy lady – the photo is in such terrible condition because she’s had it on display for the past 23 years, but I noticed a few months ago that she had taken it down because it had deteriorated so much and she was worried about it becoming completely unrecognisable. I managed to swipe it from her safe keeping place in the hopes that you’d be able to restore it. My brother and I are going to give it to her for her birthday in January and she will be made up. It’s her favourite photo in the world. I really appreciate how helpful you have been, you obviously have a great appreciation of how treasured people’s photographs are to them and their memories.”

Here are the before and afters of Elissa’s restored and colourised black and white photograph:

"My photos have arrived safely. They are spectacular, thank you so much for all of your hard work."

“My photos have arrived safely. They are spectacular, thank you so much for all of your hard work.”

Here’s Elissa’s follow up email:
“My photos have arrived safely. They are spectacular, thank you so much for all of your hard work. My mom’s birthday is not until 13th January so I’ll have to wait until then to see her reaction to the colourised photograph of us although I am itching to show it to her right away! It will mean the world to her :-)”

Case Study – iPhone Photograph Restored

by Richard Haines
03 Jan

I had an interesting request recently. I was sent this photograph taken on an iPhone to see what I could do…. The original is underexposed, skewiff and has a large hot spot caused my the built in flash

Fully restored photograph

 

This is the message I received afterwards from my customer – “Thanks for the prints, they are brilliant.  This village is where I was brought up and the house was our family home until 1984. I was born in that house in 1951 so the photo is somewhat special for me.Thank you for making it such a lovely picture.”
It’s always very gratifying to receive this sort of feedback and hear that the work I’ve done brings so much pleasure!

Rush Job From Mexico Completed In 9 Hours!

by Richard Haines
31 May

I received an enquiry from a professional photographer in Mexico recently. He sent a scan of the image and, after I’d responded, he replied:

“A friend tried to restore this photo before, but it was AWFUL, they looked like plastic figurines! Please go ahead with the restoration. I will be very happy if you could do it fast, only if you can and it doesn’t affect the quality of the restoration. Please don’t make them like Toy Story!”

9 hours later he had the restored image for approval and replied:

“WOW, that was waaay faster than I expected. I am very happy with the result!”

Mexico

I was intrigued to know how he found Photographs Forever:

“I Googled photo restoration… I found a LOT, some in the US, some in India and a lot in the UK. And your site is the one I liked the most because your examples look natural, not as CGI as most.”

 So in recent months I have carried out restoration work for customers in Canada, Spain, Australia, South Africa, Isle of Man, Germany, USA, Italy and now Mexico!
