PHOTO RESTORATION


In the field of work I am in at the moment I use Photoshop to restore damaged photographs. These particular photos are either old and faded, creased , ripped or generally in bad condition. the tools I use to restore these photographs are high powered scanner to scan them in to Photoshop and then use a series of cloning tools and blending tools. Also using the colour balance levels and sharpen tools. I find this process very long and frustrating to do well and it takes allot of time and effort. However when seeing a customers reaction after restoring an old family photograph the time and effort i put into the job seems worth while. I have put an example of the before and after prints of a damaged photograph.
