Title: My dad would have been 100 tomorrow 12/11/2022
Post by: macken_h on Friday 11 November 22 08:27 GMT (UK)
Hi,
Tomorrow my dad would have celebrated his 100th birthday.
We are celebrating and will go to the church where he married our mother.
Can you work your magic on this wedding photo please. Both my parents have passed away.
Thanking you.
Hilary

This is only the second ever photo restoration I have done, so it probably won't be as good as some of the other experts on here but I had a go, nonetheless.

I hope you like it!

That's so kind of you, KG. I really appreciate the positive feedback as I am still learning and trying to improve my editing skills.

Thankyou to all who took the time to fix the photo. We went to the church on Saturday 12th and were able to take photos of us in exactly the same position as the original photo, right down to the drainpipe in the background!
Very grateful.
Hilary
PS. I don't think I can put the "new" photo up as it's of living people.
