Repair of damaged photos - sample

This photo have travelled from the Phillipines - to us in North Norway to be repaired - and back to the Phillipines again.

One of the girls on the photo married an Norwegian sailor and they lives today on an island called Senja in North Norway.

They contacted us some years ago and brought with them the badly damaged photo asking us if we could try to make it look better. It was the only picture of the whole family together.

The photo was stuck in the frame and the high humidity in the Phillipines had made it covered with vertical dents - like waves, and the chemical reaction in the photo almost destroyed vital parts of the photo.

It took time to repair the damaged photo and it was very difficult since there were no other pictures of the family to compare the work against but.....

The sailor and his wife got the finished photo and planned a vacation on the Phillipines bringing the photo to its owners.

..... we got a call from the Phillipines when her parents had received the photo.

The couple still calls us to do special photo repairs for them ... I guess that they liked what they have seen us accomplish.

The cost of the work done depends on many things. A face that is damaged takes more time to repair than clothes or parts that is not considered vital to the look/finish of the photo.

This example photo we consider as badly damaged. Size 30x40 original.

An estimate of the cost is done in every case and the customer is free to refuse or accept the offer..

A sincerely thanks to the owner for letting us use this photo as an sample of our work..
