Family

Pictures that move people


Every family has them: the photographs in the album, the shoebox, the frame on the landing. Faded, scratched, a little forgotten.
We restore them, then bring them to life. A smile breaks, a head turns, a dress swirls across the dance floor.

Made for golden weddings, ruby anniversaries and milestone birthdays, so the room can watch the years move again. Hover over each example photograph below, or tap it on a phone, to see the original, the restored photograph, and then the moment it comes back to life.

Dancing round the handbags

A night out, with the bags piled in the middle of the floor. The colour comes back, the dresses swirl, and for a few seconds you can almost hear the record that was playing.

A day by the sea

A grey, washed-out print becomes a bright afternoon on the prom. Blue sky, bunting, the amusement arcade, two Choppers leaning on the railings, and a family strolling straight towards you.

The wedding breakfast

Daffodils and tulips, a three-tier cake and a bride who cannot stop smiling. The dust and specks are gone, the colour is warmed back to the day, and the celebration carries on where the camera left it.

A holiday by the lake

A holiday colour slide, covered in dust and hairs. Cleaned and restored, the family waves from the water's edge while father raises his camera and takes a picture of you.

Outside the cottage

Nearly a hundred years old, with a scratch running straight through the family. Repaired, then brought to life with the reserve of the age: a glance, a turn of the head, a small boy looking up. Great-grandparents, quietly present again.
