Photos hold our memories and a piece of history. I love bringing them back to life, restoring faded or damaged images so the moments last for generations.
But I also love to get creative! From playful edits like multiplicity shots to changing backgrounds, the possibilities are endless.

This Photoshop Multiplicity piece features my son Jordan having a backyard water fight… with himself! I layered and blended four photos to capture all the fun and energy, it was a blast to create.
Seeing this old photo come back to life was truly special for me. As the granddaughter, it’s amazing to witness moments of my family’s past unfold before my eyes. I carefully restored the details and added color, letting me see them as they would have been, vibrant, full of life, and almost like stepping right into that memory myself.
This photo of my grandma wasn’t too faded, but I wanted to bring it back to life just a little. I touched up the details and added some color, so I could see her as she might have looked back then, full of warmth and character. It’s such a joy to connect with her through this restored image and feel a little closer to her.
This was the last remaining photo of my client’s mother, and it meant so much to her. The image had been badly damaged by tears and folds, but I carefully restored and colorized it to bring back the warmth and life in her mother’s face. Helping someone reconnect with such a precious memory was truly special—it’s amazing how a photo can bring the past to life and hold a family’s love in a single frame.
This photo came to me through a client who wanted some help restoring some photos of their parents. The image was worn and fading, but I carefully repaired and colorized it to bring back the life and warmth in their faces. It was so meaningful to see these old memories come alive again, preserving a piece of their family history for generations to enjoy.
This photo is from the same family as the previous one, capturing another treasured moment from the past. The image had faded over the years, but I carefully restored and colorized it to bring back the joy and character in the scene. It was so rewarding to see these family memories come alive again, helping them hold onto a piece of their history.
This family had a tough time on picture day, no matter how many shots they took, they couldn’t get everyone smiling in the same photo. They asked if I could combine the best smiles from their individual photos into one perfect family portrait. I was able to make it happen by carefully selecting, masking, blending, and feathering, I replaced the children’s faces with their happiest expressions. The result is the finished photo you see on the right.
The customer requested that the older woman in the hat be removed from the photo and that the little girl be positioned closer to her family. Using a variety of Photoshop techniques, I carefully removed the woman and adjusted the placement of the girl to create a more natural composition. The finished result is shown on the right.
The customer asked to have the girl from the photo below added into the family portrait. Using masking and layering techniques, I blended her seamlessly into the group. The final edited image is shown on the right.
