Keeping Memories Sharp

Image
My name is Rebecca Richardson and I consider myself a 'Photographic Doctor'. This is my blog about all the restorations and fixes I make to photographs. Some of the images are my own but many are other's work. Old images, bandaged to new. Ripped or torn images, stitched back together. Underdeveloped images given a face lift, and so much more. I may take a portrait and you want for certain elements to be fixed or changed. It's all a timing issue. We had to do this shoot on a specific day and time. Being that the dad was in the military, he was coming and going all the time. Our family was due to leave, we're military as well, and they really wanted me to capture their family portrait before I left. The son was due to get his braces off in a month and we were going to be 3000 miles away when that happened. TIMING! So I took the braces out of their favorite image. It was worth it for them to pay and extra $45 (15/hr for 3 hours) and get me to photograph their family as...

It would be easier to say, "Hire me, " for all of your events. But that is not physically possible as many of you live in different cities and parts of the country. I will say, "Hire me," unless you are far away but don't hesitate to have me restore your photographs for you so that you can enjoy them for years to come. When you have multiple images with simple color adjustments and flash ...

Missing a Button?! Photo Doctor can fix that!

Image
I did this business portrait. MONTHS later my mother tells me that she noticed a while back that one of his buttons was missing. Thanks Mom for not telling me sooner! I can't believe that two people who pay such attention to detail, over looked this. I do appreciate my mother's keen eye for detail. Apparently, I need to hire her to proof my work before it's sent out. Just like she use to proof read my papers in grade school. The point is, we all make mistakes. We are all human. Being able to admit this and fix the problem is even greater.
