Get the most out of your old photographs.
Your family heirlooms are safe with us.
When it comes to photo editing, there is no shortage of options. You could turn to AI or ask an amateur for help. However, when it comes to truly bringing your photos to life, nothing beats an expert photo editor. After all, we know photo restoration is an art.
An expert photo editor has a keen eye for detail. Through careful adjustments to colour, lighting and composition, they bring out the best in your images. As a result, an ordinary photo can become a work of art.
AI and amateurs can make basic corrections. Still, they lack the creative touch and years of experience that make the difference in stunning, professional results. So trust the experts to bring out the full potential of your photos.
We handle your family history with care.
Are you tired of watching your cherished family memories fade away? At Yesterdays, we understand the value of preserving your family’s legacy.
Old photos are an important part of our history. In fact, they play a vital role in how we pass our story on to the next generation. Family albums are among our most precious belongings. They are irreplaceable, yet they are often overlooked. Even when stored with care, old photos keep ageing and, sooner or later, they fade.
Things get worse when photos suffer real physical damage, such as tears, water or fire. Fortunately, a skilled retoucher can recover, recreate or even recompose a damaged photograph. We sometimes use AI to help generate missing areas or suggest colouring, but it is a brush, not the artist. AI never makes the decisions. We check every result and remove any AI artefacts, and we never let it change your subject’s looks or features. History comes first. That way, your legacy is well preserved.

Photo restoration is an art, and one we are passionate about at Yesterdays. We understand that your family’s legacy is irreplaceable and can fade without proper care. That is why we take great pride in handling your most precious memories. We love hearing the stories behind each photo and bringing them back to life, repairing the damage that time and the environment have caused. For us, it is not just a business, it is a calling. So whatever your photo restoration needs, we offer a professional and personal solution.
Above all, our process brings extreme care and attention to detail to every step. Trust us to honour your most precious moments.
First, we need to understand the type and level of damage to your photo. Fingerprints, faded colour, scratches, cracks, tears and missing pieces can all be fixed, sometimes with astonishing results.
Then we carefully plan the restoration. We grade the level of work and, if needed, gather the assets or visual references required to restore your photo.
Our photo editing professionals can handle even the most challenging cases. So get in touch for a personalised assessment of your photos, family album or photo collection.
How advanced scanning techniques can bring your old photos back to life.
Technology has made scanning old photographs much simpler. Today, you can get a really good result without powerful equipment.
However, for the best digital photo restoration, and to keep the original in the best condition, you need advanced equipment, a controlled environment and top-notch scanning techniques.
As a result, we can work from your old prints, daguerreotypes, slides, negatives or reproductions. We can even work from your own scans or small digital files and still deliver a good-quality restoration.
Preserve your most treasured memories with our professional photo restoration and editing services. Our experts have the skills and tools to bring new life to old and damaged photographs, so they remain part of your family legacy for years to come.
Whether it is faded colour, scratches, water damage or even missing parts, we repair your photos with great attention to detail and artistic flair. In addition, we work with you every step of the way, so your restored photos turn out exactly as you imagined. Trust us to honour your most precious memories.
At Yesterdays, we don’t just enhance photos: we bring them to life! Our skilled team uses cutting-edge technology and artistic flair to give your old or damaged photographs a new lease of life.
For example, we can make them larger, crisper and more detailed than ever, add texture you can almost feel, and bring vibrant colour to black and white images. Every photograph tells a unique story, and we love helping you tell it beautifully. So whether you want to relive cherished family memories or create stunning works of art from old photographs, we have you covered.
We love and respect history, because it connects us with our personal and shared past.
At Yesterdays, we don’t only restore photos. We also preserve memories, stories and legacies, because we believe memories are the best gift.
A faded picture in your family album does not belong in a graveyard of memories. Instead, it deserves a place in your family history and in the hearts of generations to come.
Let your legacy prevail.

Alex did such a wonderful job making faded and damaged old photos look vibrant and new. We are absolutely thrilled with the result.
Absolutely fantastic service and result in restoring a 100 year old photo, both beyond expectations.
The restoration of my mother’s image is beautiful. He was sensitive to the circumstances. His communication and timeliness in getting the work done were great.
Alejandro does some amazing photo restoration work, being able to make an older, faded image more clear, replace damaged bits of the photo, and even fixing faces in a photo by using other photos as reference.
He went over and above to fix and restore my precious photo and frame. The whole process was very smooth and quick and Alex kept us informed throughout.
We often get photographs restored through Alex at Yesterdaysphoto. He is incredibly professional in his work ethic and approach.

It varies with the damage, but most restorations take up to two weeks. Complex reconstructions can take longer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can work to your requirements. Urgent requests may be possible, at our availability and discretion. They can require after-hours work, so a rush fee of 50% on labour applies, and we’ll confirm the total price before work begins.
Sometimes, but AI never makes the decisions. We may use it as a brush, to help generate missing areas or suggest colouring, and we never rely on it blindly. We check every result, remove any AI artefacts and make sure it doesn’t change your subject’s looks or features. The history of your photo always comes first. Read how we use AI.
No. We only work on a digital copy, so your original stays as it is.
