About

Photos Made New grew out of my love for two hobbies. I have always loved to paint. I started painting with oils in high school. Now I paint with pixels! My second love is genealogy.

About ten years ago I started researching my family history. I got out the two boxes of family photos that I had inherited from my parents. There they were! Hundreds of faded, stained, creased and even torn photos. All those old photos in need of photo restoration. And so it began. I started restoring - and I restored and restored! After I restored my vintage photos and faded snapshots, I turned to friends and relatives. As I recently told a friend, "I restore EVERYTHING!"

Finally after a few years of this, I decided photo restoration and photo repair was what I wanted to do when I retired. So, that is exactly what I am doing and I could not be happier. These old worn photos are so special to me. They are a connection to our ancestors, and the newer photos are our memories! It is important to make these photos as beautiful as they once were.

I hope you will allow me to restore your vintage photos or make one of your "younger" photos look new again. Generations to come will be glad you did! Today's photos papers and inks are acid free, so your restored photos will not crumble and fade like your vintage photos have.

Send me your photos and I will send you a beautiful restoration!
