# Photo Services

Scan it, repair it, and bring the color back.

Whether you have a shoebox of prints, a torn portrait of your grandparents, or photos that have faded to orange or came out dull on your phone, I can digitize them, repair the damage, and correct the color — so the memories outlast the paper they're printed on.

Most old photos need more than one kind of help. Some just need to be scanned before they fade further, some are cracked, torn, or stained, and some have color that's shifted so far they barely look like the moment anymore. Pick the service that fits, or combine them — most projects start with scanning and end with a restored, color-corrected file you can back up, share, or print again.

Common questions

### Which photo service do I need?

If the photos are in good shape and you just want digital copies, start with Photo-to-Digital. If they're torn, creased, scratched, or stained, you need Photo Restoration. If the image is intact but the colors look faded, yellowed, or off — including digital photos with poor color — Color Correction is the fit. Not sure? Send a quick photo of what you have and I'll recommend one.

### Can I combine services?

Yes — most projects do. A typical order is scanning a batch of prints, then restoring or color-correcting the ones that need it most.

### How much does it cost?

It depends on how many photos you have and how much work each one needs. Send a rough count, or a few sample photos, and I'll quote it.

### Will I get my original photos back?

Always. Originals are returned along with your digital files, whether you drop them off locally or mail them in.
