FAQ

I do not use a scanner. I use professional photography equipment and lighting setups. My monitors and printers are color calibrated to get the most accurate color and value match possible to the original artwork. But there is always some slight color variations due to the limited color range of printers.

Depending on the number of artwork pieces brought in, turnaround time is 7-14 days. Most small jobs, 1 to 3 artworks, require 7 days.

Photo restoration is a time consuming process. It also requires thorough knowledge of Photoshop. Recoloring requires highly trained skills and artistic knowledge. You’re paying for these skills and the time put into the editing.

That depends on many things. Each photo presents a different case.

• The amount of possible damage or wear to the photo.
• Do items need to be redrawn/repainted?
• Are you needing the photo recolored?

We take an artistic approach to restoration which involves highly trained skills. We must see the photo and know your request in order to provide an estimate. This is part of the consultation process. On average we have spent 5-6 hours editing.
