Hand Repair Beats AI Guesswork
AI restorers invent what they can't see. They smooth skin into plastic, reshape eyes, and swap details you'd recognize anywhere. Our retouchers rebuild damage from what's actually in your photo, so the people in it still look like themselves.

Zoom In. This Is Where Most Restorations Fail.
Anyone can blur a scratch. The hard part is the face underneath it: the eyes, the smile, the hairline. Our retouchers rebuild texture and tone by hand, then check the result against your original scan before it reaches you.
What You Get With Every Photo:
- Tears, Cracks & Creases Rebuilt by Hand
- Faces Kept True to the Original (No AI Invention)
- Faded & Yellowed Color Brought Back

Torn & Creased Photos Made Whole Again
Wallet folds, frame tears, and cracks in brittle old prints. We rebuild the missing texture line by line so the repair disappears, even when you print it large.
Fix a Torn PhotoFaded Color Brought Back to Life
Sunlight, time, and old print chemistry turn color photos orange, pink, or washed out. We rebalance color and contrast so skin looks like skin and the sky turns blue again.
Restore Faded ColorWater & Stain Damage Cleaned Up
Flood-damaged albums, coffee rings, mold spots, and sticky residue from old album pages. We clear the damage while protecting the fine detail around it.
Send a Damaged PhotoMissing Pieces Carefully Rebuilt
Torn-off corners, holes, and burned edges. We reconstruct lost areas from the surrounding detail and any reference photos you share, and we tell you upfront what can and can't be recovered.
Get Custom QuotePortraits & Group Photos With Faces Intact
Wedding portraits, military photos, class pictures, and family reunions. Every face gets individual attention, because a restored photo only matters if you still recognize the people in it.

Photo restoration questions, answered
How much does photo restoration cost?+
It depends on the damage. A light scratch cleanup costs far less than rebuilding a torn-off face. Send your scan for a free quote, or try 3 photos free first. Volume pricing is available for photographers, genealogy services, and archives.
How do I send you an old photo?+
Scan it at 600 DPI or higher and save it as TIFF or PNG. No scanner? Take it out of the frame, lay it flat in daylight, and photograph it straight on without flash. Then upload it through our free trial or quote form.
Do you use AI to restore photos?+
Every repair is done and checked by a human retoucher. We never let AI generate or replace faces. AI restorers tend to invent features they can't see; we rebuild from what's actually in your photo.
How long does photo restoration take?+
Standard repairs come back within 20 hours at no extra cost. Severe damage or reconstruction can take longer, and we'll tell you before we start. Need it sooner for a memorial or event? Ask about express delivery.
Is my original photo safe?+
Your original never leaves your hands. You send a digital scan, we return a restored file. Your images are handled privately, and we sign NDAs on request.
What files will I get back?+
High-resolution JPEG, PNG, or TIFF, ready to print, frame, or share. Layered PSD files are available on request.
Can you restore photos in bulk?+
Yes. From a family album to a library or museum collection, our 200+ retouchers work to one standard, with volume pricing and 3-step QC on every image.
