Wedding pics

[suzie1]

When we got married we had some lovely pics framed of our wedding in silver plated frames. We had a big major fight one day and i threw the frames in the garden on the rainy day, and when my hubby found them the next morning they had black blotches on them and the photos were stuck to the glass, he still hasn't let me live this one down, so i want to make amends and get the photos retouched, where can i get this done if its possible? thanks

Hope this is not in connection with the "otherthread! lol
Have you been to the photographers to ask if they have in database? Or too long ago?

You could scan them into a good photo program like Corel .. or Paintshop Pro, then blow right up and use a clone tool to repair the images. That's probably best way. Need a good colour flatbed scanner though. Take them to a local reprographic co. and ask if they can scan large as poss to tiff format, and then put on a pen drive you take with you.
I have done this several times to fix old historical pictures for display.

Almost every high street photo processing shop offers a restoration service. Snappy Snaps certainly does

but you'll probably find similar services available at Klik, Boots, etc. (It might also be worth checking out supermarket photo processing counters. I know that some of them used to offer this service but I'm not sure whether they still do).

Alternatively, a friend who's got one of the full versions of Photoshop (or GIMP) on his/her computer (and who actually knows how to use it!) should be able to do the job for you. After all, it will be Photoshop that's used by the professional labs anyway.
