Imagine your photo, dull, damaged. Making changes can renew a photo to brilliance, impressing your family.
A photo-artist works with photo damage to its finish, retaining its original aspect to get back photo excellence.
Beginning in 1999 we were first to restore 1836-1917 tintype photos. Others thought old photos were, too old.

We lowered pricing 40% with persistence, only to keep pricing low as other restorers nationwide kept in step.
We don't increase pricing for having a Microsoft engineer on-staff who teaches technology to our photo artists.
Our owner, Steve Lehman is a former Microsoft engineer turned photo artist and tintype photo expert, historian.
PixSavers photo artists are the best as their technique comes from software engineer training on the software.
Aside from restoring, we'll archive your entire photo collection. It's best to rescue your photos before it's too late.

About PixSavers' Colorful Logo
Made by our own graphic artist, our logo is a continuous color wheel movement, built into layers.
Colors are drawn with precision to an exact dimension of length, width, exactness, layers in size.
What appears to be a rainbow is a color wheel which illustrates photo artistic imaging processes.
On the right is an example of how photo art and graphics are made in layers to a flattened object.
Each layer is stacked, dissected, manipulated, utilized, reassembled, blended, flattened, saved.
This same layering process is what we utilize in our digital photo restoration process to a finish.
Our logo layers of a color wheel is an example of a photo restore processing in layers.
Art students say they have copied our logo to create their own logo for their clients.
No "Magic Buttons" in Software
Our professionals don't use magic buttons in software, as we restore photo with work.
Professional digital tools are manual. Art tools as "magic" produces more problems.
The magic is in the photo artist in tedious creative movements, consistent intelligence.
Artistically, we use real art tools. Digitally, our art tools work the same as manual tools.
All photos are planned, worked through, team-inspected, re-worked, inspected again.
When a photo artist finishes, satisfaction abounds, like Van Gogh artistry.
