The Good Ol’ Days

201611 glenda 001 1 orig - PixelFIX Photo Restoration Auckland NZ

When Summers were always hot and the lemonade was also fresh! This wonderful old photo was sent in by Glenda and in desperate need of some restoration. There were thousands of tiny cracks and some large creases that has destroyed some of the photo. But with the magic of Photoshop and also 5-6 hours of slow and steady work. I was able to full restore this wonderful old photo so that the memories of those wonderful summers could be shared for many years to come.

Do you have a wedding day disaster?

Do you have a wedding day disaster?

Jenny brought me this wonderful wedding photo, her brother was the photographer, for restoration. It had some bad copper coloured stains on the dress and skin areas. The difficulty is to remove the stain without loosing any detail in the dress and veil areas.

I used channel mixer adjustment layer and curves adjustment layers to remove the offending stained area and then clean the rest of the wedding photo using stamp and healing tools. A final sharpened layer and the bride is now looking her best again and the photo is restored.

New tool to play with.

 

This week saw the arrival of my new scanner. The old one was an HP model but that failed on me a couple of months ago so this new Epson model does large format negative scanning as well as photo and document scanning. The quality is really much improved over the old HP model. Good photo restorations all start with the quality of the original scan and so PixelFIX photo restorations will now have a much better starting point.

How do you bring back the colour?

Edward from Singapore asked me to restore and bring back the colour to this wonderful family photo, from the seventies. It was his fathers photo and he wanted to put it back up on display again.  There was a lot of work involved and many different layers in Photoshop, but the finished result was a definite success. Edward was very happy with the photo restoration. He and his family are once again enjoying this wonderful portrait.

Thank you Pixelbox for the awesome job well done! We’ll definitely work together in the near future and I’m sure to recommend you services to my peers. Can’t wait to receive the parcel!
