SCAN OR NOT TO SCAN!

Why scan your photographs?
Our photographs - our unique stories that can not be replaced, and so often we forget that they are requiring special care so they can tell our story, again later in time. Heat, moisture and improper storage can be followed by losing our pressures memories forever.

Most common problems
All colour photographs will fade with time. The colour dyes that are used in photographs begin to fade after a short period of time under affects of daily environment. To be exact these major substances will contribute to fading: heat, light and moisture. In general, in a fading photograph you would find a loss of detail (mostly in the highlights) as well as colour shift.

Before scanning and digital photo manipulation software, it would be almost impossible to fix fading. Today by using a variety photo manipulation software tools we can bring faded images to life. But remember, colour fading can be quite severe, and it can be rather challenging to give your photographs life again – so don’t wait until its too late! Use our solution of 3P’s (Preserve, Protect, Practicality)!
 
Also fading photographs can suffer from common problems such as dust, time spots & blemishes, scratches, stains, tears and even mold damage.

Nowadays, with photo manipulation and image editing software we have the ability to restore, repair, colourise, enhance and even manipulate our photographs. We can digitalise our photographs by scanning them in to the computer and then digitally return them to life or occasionally help them appear even better than in the beginning. Some of the basic repair processes can be done automatically, nevertheless if damage is too severe it will require manual reconstruction, retouching or even replacement of parts from other sources.
