Damage assessment, before you commit
This cricket team portrait arrived with deep losses and scratches across the players. Each repair was made by hand, matched to the grain and tone of the original print.
Cricket team portrait, restored by hand. Draw the handle across to compare.
Every original rests in our Woodlands studio while in our care, and returns to you with its digital likeness.
Tears, stains, mould, fading and missing corners, attended to by a retoucher’s hand rather than a filter. We study each print first, and quote before any work begins.
Photographs, slides, negatives, artwork and large-format prints, scanned at archival resolution and catalogued so that each may be found again.
Portraits for the boardroom, the beloved family pet, the view from above and the wedding day, made by the same hands that restore the photographs of generations past.

Rated 5.0 from 37 Google reviews. Torn, faded and forgotten photographs, and the people who brought them in.
Alejandro restored two photos for me which had been mistakenly torn into multiple pieces. They started as a total mess but he painstakingly put them back together and the results are extraordinary. Genuinely better than the originals.
Alex worked a minor miracle to restore a badly torn and discoloured photograph from my parents’ wedding over 50 years ago. The resulting print looks amazing.
Alex was brilliant at bringing to life an original WWI photo, designing a layout that incorporated war medals and text and organising other trades on our behalf for printing etc. ready for framing.
I had quite a bunch of old slides (40 yrs old +), which I wanted digitised and you came to my aid. You did the scan job for me in a very quick time frame and considering the age and deterioration of some of the slides, I was extremely pleased with the outcome.
There’s my girl!!! Took my breath away and more than a tear or two in my eye.
The restoration of the photo was incredible given the original photo was totally stuck to a glass frame with wrinkles and bubbles.
Full price tables, with worked examples for 100, 500 and 1,000 photographs, are set out in our pricing guide.
