Recreating missing parts

The same principal we use to paint out creases & marks can be extended to reconstruct missing sections of a photograph. We can use similar elements in the picture in recreating a lost piece. Also suitable parts from another photograph can be employed and manipulated to match the original image.

If you’re photo has a corner torn off, the edges cut to fit an oval frame or a section heavily damaged we should be able to digitally reconstruct those missing bits. Have a look at these examples to see how seamless these repairs can be.

Lost corner of a damaged picture is digitally rebuilt

One of our main techniques involves painting with photos whereby we sample the good parts of a picture to rebuild the lost or damaged areas. As you can see here we’ve used the wooden boards from the right side in making a new corner on the left.

Reconstructing the missing section of a colour photo

section of photo removed
This fond photo memory sadly had a big section missing. Fortunately we were able to reconstruct this section by “borrowing” the legs from the other girls.

Missing chunk of an old photograph is recreated

A sizable chunk had gone from the side of this photograph. Luckily the symmetry of the image helped in recreating it as we could mirror parts from the opposite side to seamlessly mend this picture.

Customer Testimonials

When I lost my mum earlier in the year one of dad’s most treasured possessions was a 45 year old framed wedding photo of her on the bedroom wall. Time had taken it’s toll and it was well faded. Gareth’s team were able to take the original print from the wedding album and create a gorgeous colourful 16 x 12 print that will bring a little sunshine into dad’s life.

I have shown the restored photograph to my mother. She is absolutely delighted with it. The original photograph had sat in an open frame on a bookshelf for more than forty years. As well as having been torn, virtually all the colour had disappeared and a number of blemishes were visible. Restoration was way beyond anything I could achieve with standard scanner software and Photoshop Elements. The finished result is amazing. What is part…
