Two images of the same old photo side-by-side with one partially restored by online AI software and the original beside it for comparison

AI photo restoration

I have a black and white photo-booth snapshot of my grandparents taken in 1941 right after they got married. It’s torn, bent, water damaged, discolored, and the paper developed something like scales. I photographed it with my iPhone 13 and started photo editing it. It was going to be a long tedious process.

After reading your article, I followed your link and uploaded the image to the site. The software worked incredibly well. It even moved the torn chunk a little to try to realign it. Half the work is done and the detail in their eyes, nose, mouth and hair is probably not something I could have achieved.

There’s a lot of work left to do in Photoshop, but it’s a great start. Thanks for sharing this.
