A couple of summers ago, my grandparents celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. They had a party with the whole, huge family. They had a picture taken, but it was taken in 3 shots because of how big the group was. The pictures were printed separately and framed together and it sits on my grandparent's piano.
My grandma's family has been collecting family pictures for a CD. My grandma wanted the pictures from their anniversary party included, but she wanted them combined. And boy, was it complicated. When I got the top lined up, the angle at the bottom was different and didn't line up. So I had to rebuild legs, shoulders, shoes, shirts, floor, and all kinds of stuff along two merge lines. Now I'll have to get it printed for my grandparents.

Color Shift

Reduce Noise
I got married shortly before it became common to get a digital copy of wedding photos. I scanned in all my photos for backup, and then I was using this photo on a digital scrapbook page. It was really grainy, especially on our faces. Wedding pictures are especially important to look fabulous, right? I reduced the noise, or the grainy look and got rid of some speckles, which are common problems in scanned photos. Noise can be a problem in digital photos, as well.

Scanned Color
Color photos present a different kind of problem than black and white ones. The colors can look dull and muted. Restoring them can really make the color pop. Besides fixing the color on this one, I also fixed a few scratches.

Old Black and White
I absolutely LOVE looking at old photos of my family. I scanned a bunch of them for a family history album I did recently. These old photos often lose a lot of detail as they age because of fading. This particular photo was a scan of a print, so there was even more detail lost.

Backdrop
I took this beautiful photo of my friend's baby. I used a homemade white backdrop, but you can see plenty of wrinkles on it. With his white onesie, just whitening the backdrop didn't look super. So I cleaned up the backdrop and added a beautiful, soft damask pattern to it. Love!
