Revival-Images

I've spent more than 30 years working in the visual arts, developing images, solving creative problems and bringing ideas to life.
My professional career has included work on Academy Award-winning films like James Cameron's Titanic, experience as a Disney Imagineer, Lead Artist, Art Director, Producer and Mentor in games and education tech.
Those experiences taught me something that remains central to my work today ~ Details matter.
Â
Today, I combine traditional artistic judgment with advanced digital restoration techniques to carefully repair photographs that have been damaged, faded or lost to time.
Revival-Images began with something personal, my own desire to preserve family photographs and share those memories with the people I love. I created Revival-Images so I could help other families do the same.
Based in California's North Bay, I personally handle the restorations and work directly with customers throughout the process.
The Artist Behind Revival-Images

My guiding principles:

Preserve the original features
-
Restore what can be recovered
-
Reconstruct carefully when necessary
-

-
Respect the history
Founder & Restoration Specialist Carolyn Daley
My goal is to create an image that feels revived, believable and faithful to the original, not an image that looks artificially generated.
I carefully balance restoration with preservation, retaining the character, texture, lighting and personality of the original photograph whenever possible.
Some photographs require painstaking reconstruction, sometimes rebuilding portions of an image pixel by pixel.
Every photograph is different.
Every restoration is approached individually.
My Restoration Philosophy
Restoration should not erase the history of a photograph
