Hello Rootschatters - greetings from Switzerland

I've seen some wonderful examples of picture restoration/improvement on this board - but I suspect that my image is so poor that little can be done with it!

This is the only picture that I have of my grandparents Harriet May & Charles CROOK who lived in Stamford and Ryhall. This is their wedding in August 1913. The image that I have is a very poor photocopy of the original photo - I have no idea if the original photo still exists nor where to find it.

Any improvement at all would be very much appreciated!
