What our customers say
“This work is extraordinary! Especially the Scottish girl – our grandmother! I didn’t think she would be able to be revived. Thank you so much James – you’ve enabled our ancestors to emerge from the mists of time!”
Sue J, Cootamundra, NSW
“Thank you, you’ve brought tears to my eyes, so many happy precious memories I can share with the rest of the family. I received the hard copy prints yesterday. Just perfect, thank you so much.”
Andrea, Wahroonga NSW
“James is extremely talented, meticulous and very easy, patient and pleasant to work with. He will go the extra mile to get the colours and detail of his work just right – until it’s perfect. He has restored and colourised three damaged old black and white photos of my mother at various stages of her youth for me. My Mum says she cannot take her eyes off them and the photos make her feel young again. These magnificent photos will be handed down through future generations. Thank you so much James for bringing these photos to life. Your work is stunning.”
