Additional services
Rotation and Cropping
Cropping out white space and ensure photos are in the correct orientation is a standard service I perform at no extra cost when I scan photos and media as well as when I work with clients' digital collections.
Date Correction
By correcting the dates assigned to photos to reflect the date the photo was taken (not just edited or scanned), I can chronologically order entire collections to make the most sense of your images.
Red Eye Removal
If requested, I can removal unsightly red reflections from all or just selected photos. I ensure that the red-eye removal looks natural and doesn't make the pupil too black, which can actually make the image look worse!
Facial Recognition
Identifying the people who matter in your photos makes your collection much more searchable so that you can find particular photos quickly and easily. We can determine a list of the people you'd like to be able to quickly search for in your collection.
Keywording
Just like with facial recognition, by adding keywords customized to your photos, I can make your collection easily searchable to find any particular photo in no time at all! I can also add any of thousands of AI-generated keywords (for example, dog, water, smiling) for more searchable possibilities.
Color Enhancement/Editing/Restoration
I can often enhance photos by adjusting settings and enhancing colors, sometimes breathing life back into photos that were too dark or bright and thought ruined. I also remove silvering on very old photos using polarizing techniques. In addition, I can often improving and restoring photos damaged from rips and tears, stains and aging. Got pictures from the 70's or before that have discolored from albums or aging? No problem--I can do those, too!
Video Editing
When I digitize analog video media, I trim the start and end of the clip to remove dead space. For videos that contain more than one event, I offer the option of breaking up the events into their own separate digital files with dated, descriptive titles.
