Hello! My name is Renée, and I am very excited to tell you about my new shop! Just around six years ago, A dear family friend introduced me to the wonderful world of Photoshop. It quickly became a passion to me as I learned the endless possibilities that can be done with existing photos. To me, there's nothing better than seeing the expression on someone's face when they first view their outcome, whether I have restored a precious old family photo, or put their child on the moon or inside a pumpkin! The sky is the limit! No matter what occasion, holiday, or theme, there is simply nothing we can't do. Please keep in mind your projects will be professionally printed on top quality glossy photo paper using archival ink guaranteed not to fade for a century! I do not just forward you a digital file where you then have to go on and have it printed yourself... Once your work is printed it will be promptly and securely mailed right to your door!!
I like to categorize into three different options. Restorations, enhancements and corrections. Allow me to explain............

Restorations: We all have them, you know, usually Tucked away in a shoebox up in the attic or under a bed.... those old family photos that are not worthy of display. Maybe it's the grandparents or even great-grandparents wedding photo, or maybe it's something more recent but was damaged by water or torn or faded. Maybe the dog chewed it? New life can be given to these old treasures. The gift of restoration is second to none! Folks are simply amazed when they are given a photo thought to be ruined, with rips and tears...... repaired color corrected along with contrast correction, water stains removed etc. I can even add color to your black-and-white photos this colorization process is literally jaw-dropping! Some people are very hard to shop for this unique gift idea is sure to bring smiles!

Enhancements: Here's where it gets fun! By using custom digital props and backgrounds, existing photos are transformed into conversation pieces! Subjects are digitally extracted from the existing photo leaving behind the couches, undesired objects etc. and are then placed in a new backdrop. For instance, we can take A photo of a baby let's say, taken lying on a dressing table..... I can now have that baby laying in an old-fashioned scale which will display the accurate weight of the baby at that time! I can put your kids and pets inside of Christmas stockings coming out of a Christmas decorated mailbox, even inside of a head of cabbage LOL the possibilities are unlimited with enhancements. If your child, for instance, is a baseball fan I can put them on the cover of sports illustrated magazine or maybe your little girl loves mermaids I can put her inside of a clamshell. Many of my clients use enhancements to design holiday cards, party invitations as well as birth announcements etc. Wedding photos take on a whole new meaning once enhanced. I can have the bride and groom dancing on top of their own wedding cake or even on their place setting! Or how about having the bride and groom superimposed onto the actual wedding cake! Beautiful effects can be achieved with wedding photos and the wedding album becomes a showstopper!

Corrections: I'm sure this sounds familiar, a beautiful family photo.....BUT one person had their eyes closed YIKES well, that's not a problem I can open closed eyes! Maybe someone was missing from the photo.... you can have them added in! On the flipside, maybe there is an unwanted person in the photo, they can be removed! Cleanups are a wonderful way to unclutter your favorite photos by removing unwanted or unnecessary objects.... I can even straighten out a man's tie, or tuck in a shirt LOL make up correction is always a hit, removing shine from skin or adding a little lipstick...shhhhhhhhh I can even do a little digital nip tuck but that's our secret!!! ;)

How it works: It's so easy, simply email your photo(s), we will discuss your project and thats it! Your finished product(s) will be promptly mailed to you and I ALWAYS include a free digital copy at your request via email as well for you to upload to your Facebook etc. If you are unable to email your photos they can be mailed to me and will be returned with your completed project. Once your project is complete, additional copies are always ONLY $5 each regardless of size!! I use only top quality professional glossy photo paper as well as archival ink guaranteed not to fade for 100 years. Completed photos can be printed as small as wallet sizes all the way up to 8.5X11. The most common sizes are 4 x 6 5 x 7 and 8 x 10 however, any size can be customized to suit your collages or odd size frames!

Thank you for spending a few moments to allow me to introduce myself I'm looking forward to earning your business, restoring your old memories and helping you create beautiful new ones! --Renee
