What our customers say

Every photograph tells a story. Here is what people said when they got theirs back.

  • My grandparents' wedding photo was faded to almost nothing. Every detail came back, right down to the lace on her dress.

    Margaret

    Restored a 1951 wedding portrait

  • My dad's photo was torn and I thought it couldn't be fixed. The restoration looked so real that I couldn't tell where the tear had been.

    David

    Restored a torn 1960s photograph

  • Silver & Sepia sent both photos back sharper than I imagined. I just wish I had taken the color option.

    Susan

    Two photographs restored

  • My mother's photo had water damage across the whole bottom and I didn't think they could do much. Boy was I wrong! My mom cried when she saw it. Thank you.

    James

    Restored water-damaged portrait

  • My parents' anniversary photo had turned completely orange. The real colors are back and it looks brand new.

    Linda

    Color correction on a 1974 photograph

  • I chose black and white and all the damage is gone. It took a day longer than the date they gave me but the results were good.

    Robert

    Restored a 1940s military portrait

  • We found a box of photos in the attic after my father passed. I sent 6 and used them at the memorial.

    Patricia

    Six photos restored for a memorial service

  • My baby photo was so faded my kids had no idea what I looked like. They couldn't believe how much my granddaughter looks like me.

    Carol

    Childhood photo restored

  • Communication during the process was a little slow and I had to follow up once, but the end result was well worth the wait.

    Thomas

    Restored a heavily faded family portrait

  • Every scratch is gone. I had it printed large and hung it in the living room. People ask where I had it taken.

    Nancy

    Scratched photograph restored, with a large print

  • The photo had mold spots across half of it and I almost threw it away. What came back looked like a clean original!

    George

    Mold-damaged photograph restored

  • I ordered prints as well as the digital file, and the prints are gorgeous. I gave framed copies to my sisters for Christmas.

    Helen

    Restoration plus prints as a gift

  • The first version came back way too dark and I had to ask twice before it was right.

    Michael

    Full color restoration of a 1980s portrait

  • My grandmother kept a photo of her parents. It was literally torn in pieces and now it's whole again.

    Anna

    Torn family portrait restored

  • I sent a photo of my parents on their honeymoon. My mom says it looks like the day it was taken.

    Brian

    Honeymoon photo restored as an anniversary gift

    Frances

    School portrait from the 1960s restored

  • I have five photos on my wall that looked like nothing a month ago. Extraordinary.

    1930s farm photograph restored

  • I had no expectations. The photo came back and I just stared at it. Perfect.

    Catherine

    Faded portrait restored

  • Ordered for my dad's birthday. He went quiet when he saw it. Great work, but it almost missed the date.

    Simon

    Birthday gift restoration

  • The photo was stuck to the album and had torn when someone tried to peel it off. You would never know.

    Water-damaged portrait restored

  • The site was hard to use but the result was fine.

  • I had a photo of my mother-in-law's parents restored and framed for her birthday.

    Three flood-damaged photographs restored

  • The quote was accurate and the result was excellent. Would recommend.

    Restored as a birthday gift

  • Amazing service. Thank you!

    40-year-old wedding photograph restored

  • We found my uncle's photo albums after he passed. I sent five and got my grandparents back.

    Audrey

    Five family photographs restored after a bereavement

  • The detail in the faces still looks blurry to me, but it's definitely better than what I sent in.

    Oliver

    Heavily faded portrait restored

  • I emailed twice with questions before I ordered and got an answer both times. The quality is exactly what I needed.

    Barbara

    Grandparents' portrait restored

    Stephen

    Two early-life portraits restored for an elderly parent

    Creased and faded photograph restored

  • I've now sent 11 photographs across 4 separate orders. Haven't been disappointed so far.

    Frederick

    Eleven photographs restored across multiple orders
