Photo Restoration in Mississauga and Oakville

Technology is a really remarkable thing, and in the hands of a skilled person, it can truly transform old and damaged photographs. We’re very happy to be able to offer photo restoration in Mississauga and photo restoration in Oakville, and to give our customers a means of preserving precious memories for generations to come.

Why Photo Restoration?

If you’re looking for photo restoration in Mississauga or photo restoration in Oakville, chances are, like most Canadians, you have a shoebox (or ten), of photographs that have been collected by the family since… well, since photographs were invented!

Most of us have a variety of snapshots, ranging from faded grey and sepia snaps from the early twentieth century, with names and dates scrawled on the back in pale ink, to much more recent, brightly colored snaps from the eighties and nineties.

Unlike the digital photographs that replaced those old fashioned photographs, once those one of a kind pictures are damaged, perhaps due to UV light color fading or scratches, there isn’t a lot you can do except try to prevent more damage. But that means keeping those pictures locked away instead of looking at them, and that’s not ideal either.

Which is why it’s so exciting that we can now restore pictures of nearly any age back to their original glory, and sometimes even enhance them with better clarity, color and resolution!

How Photo Restoration Works

Photo restoration starts by capturing your damaged and worn photograph digitally. We use very special, professional grade equipment to painstakingly scan your image in ultra high resolution into our computer system.

Once the image is captured digitally (with no additional damage to your original photograph!), our team goes to work, using complex and powerful graphic software to carefully clone, heal and reconstruct the damaged areas of the photograph, until we’re left with a finished image that looks like the day it was taken, and that does your loved one’s memory justice.

While we know that the whole process is very much based on science and the skill of our restoration technicians, even we find it somewhat magical when a faded, damaged old snapshot becomes a pristine, clear and timeless image, that we can then print and share digitally with our customers.

How to Get Started with Photo Restoration

If you’re reading this, chances are you’re already looking for photo restoration in Mississauga or photo restoration in Oakville, and you’re just looking for a good reason to get started. We’d like to give you several.

First, there’s no risk. We take great care of your original photographs, and because we scan them in to digitally heal and repair them, there’s no damage to those originals. You’ll get to take them home with you and keep them safe for years to come.

Choosing photo restoration, however, will also give you the same images, but looking completely brand new and undamaged, which you can then display and share with your family and the world. We provide finished images in both physical and digital format too, so you’ll always have a pristine copy of that special photograph, to share, reprint or just keep safe somewhere.

Finally, it’s convenient and easy. After you give us a call, we’ll stop by to assess the state of your images and provide you with advice and a free quote to restore and refresh your photographs. If you choose to go ahead, we’ll take your pictures, scan them carefully and transform them for you, and then we’ll return everything to you. It’s quick, easy and convenient!
