The charm and memories that old black & white photos exude are absolutely priceless. These photos are probably the last traces of a memory or legacy that you cherished few years back. When your parents or grandparents are not around you anymore, these photos are the only pieces of treasure that you can hold close to your heart. However, there is no guarantee that these photos will remain fresh-looking forever. Natural wear &tear, moisture accumulation, oil or ink spills, rough handling, scratches, cracks and other problems are the most common enemies of these precious photos. They get bent and folded so much that you start fearing for the safety of your memories. This is where photo restoration services come to your rescue.
They use updated software tools and techniques to bring back the life and color to your photos so that they look as good as new. There are various tools and apps that help them in automatically correcting the irregular patches in the background, correct facial features, remove imperfections, remove traces of dust, stain and other particles and clean the photo thoroughly so that the resultant photograph is not just new, but great-looking as well.
If you want the best out of these services, you have to make a simple work. All you need to do is to search for “companies for picture restoration near me” on Google. Since Google picks up your location automatically, you will get a list of results that helps you to pick and choose from the best in the business. There are many companies that charge you a huge sum for services and filters that you can do yourself easily. It is always recommended to a lot of groundwork for these before you choose the right service provider for your needs.
Today many people choose paintings as gifts for their near and dear ones. Instead of gifting people paintings of random objects, a great idea is to gift them paintings of people or things that they love. This is where you can take the help of artists who are experts in the task of “turn picture to painting”. All you need to do is to send them a scanned copy of the reference image (nice, simple and clear copy is a must) physically or through email. The artist works on this picture based on your requirements (oil painting, watercolor painting, pencil sketch, colored pencil painting, etc.) and personalized instructions (changing background, changing color of the attire, removing or adding objects), if any.
While these photo restoration agencies and portrait artists have the same aim to keep your memories intact, what you have to note is that you have to choose your service providers cautiously. When you make a slight mistake here, it creates a huge negative impact on the final restored photo or oil painting that you hold in your hands. Remember these artists don’t come cheap! So, it is only natural to put your money in the right place. You need to do some basic tasks like scanning and re-touching by yourself to save a great deal of money in the long run.
