Photo Restoration

Hi everyone,

If you are interested in Photo Restoration, you may want to check this video by George Peirson.

Here is my 5 step photo restoration process that I use to repair old photos with Photoshop Elements. Plus I include a Bonus Step using AI Artificial Intelligence to reformat the image for 8x10. Using AI along with Photoshop Elements is a great way to add more power and flexibility to the Photoshop Elements photo editing program.

5 Step Photo Restoration - How to Photo Retouching

I have spent many an hour restoring old photos, Sepiana, using most of the techniques here (except AI), but I still learned a few things from the vid.

E.g. It never crossed my mind to burn shadows over entire faces with a larger brush to add some contrast, instead I try to paint over facial features with the burn brush to regain lost detail, which takes far longer and is less successful as his technique appears to be.



Thanks for the post

Howard, you are most welcome. Glad to hear you "learned a few things from the vid".
