FOTO Resurrection / PROCESS

From the album.
Back to life.

A simple guide to preparing a photograph for restoration.

01

Start with a scan

Keep the original safe. Scan in colour at a high resolution, or photograph the print straight on in even light without glare. This is where many people go wrong and will prevent satisfactory results.

02

Tell the story

Note the changes you would like, any known clothing or background colours, and details that should be preserved.

03

Plan the finished image

Choose whether the image is for digital viewing or printing, and specify the print dimensions you have in mind. We prefer to keep our output at 5X7 inches at 600 DPI to give you a higher quality if you wish to make the image bigger.

The submission and delivery process will be confirmed when contact details are added.
