Please restore and colour a wedding photo. Done thank you!
« on: Sunday 23 January 11 06:17 GMT (UK) »
If anyone has any spare time and would like to have a go at restoring (#1 priority) and colouring (#2) this pic I would be very grateful.

I hope this is the right resolution!

Thank you

Angela

clean up + col
GUIDE FOR PHOTO RESTORATIONS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SCANNER BED IS CLEAN AND SCAN AT A RESOLUTION OF 300-600 WITH THE SCALE AT 100% MINIMUM.

If you would like a coloured version, details such as hair colour , eyes and clothing etc.  if known  would be helpful to restorers

Regards Roy

Oooh!  Fabulous!  Thank you so much folks, for taking the time.  Some amazing work you guys have done there!

Just one other quick question - would I be right in assuming that the bride's family are likely those sitting beside her, and the groom's family on the other side next to him?  If so, this does give me another clue as to who they may be!

Look for 'hands on.'
If someone has their hand on someone's shoulder/arm/back of their chair it might mean they were related, it's one of the little clues they left us....
