4worldlovers: Paul is a rare talent, completely professional and an artist of exceptional ability. I brought him a photo that was practically ruined with age and exposure — he brought it back to portrait quality in a matter of days. He a perfectionist who clearly loves his craft. You will not only be completely satisfied with his work, you will be thrilled with the outcome. Ten stars wouldn’t be enough. — Maureen, East Haddam


This is amazing! What you have done is incredible! I cried and then showed it to my ex-mother in-law and she cried. She said it was like you brought him right back to her! We are very pleased!! Again, Paul, I have no words for what you have accomplished here. Please know that there is more behind feeling behind the simple words of “thank you”. — Lynn, Vernon


Paul — I just want to thank you again for your beautiful work on our photo album! My mother really enjoyed going through the restored pictures — they brought back so many memories for her. I compared yours to the originals again and the difference is just amazing! Not only are yours beautiful but they really bring all the people and events back to life so vividly, and that is such a precious gift. I also love the picture you chose for the cover photo. Happy times!!! All the best. — Marie, West Hartford

“I had a pic from 1980 and it was torn in seven pieces as well as being tossed in the trash. I gathered it out and held on to it in hopes of getting it restored. It really looked hopeless from its condition. Paul put it back together and it is even better than the original. I can now treasure the pic and pass it on to my grandchildren.” — Donna, Southington

“Overall excellent!! I would highly recommend to anyone. I was amazed by the fast turn-around-time of less than 24 hours and the quality of the picture was excellent. My 20 year wedding photo had lost it’s color and had turned a greenish hue – he was able to bring back all the natural colors and details of the photo. We were very pleased!” — Nate, Guilford

“I am a digital artist and memory keeper. I work with hundreds of photos at varying degrees of resolution and quality. I trust Paul’s careful eye and technical skills to restore and/or improve all of my photos. He is thorough and pays meticulous attention to photography detail, composition, lighting and color. Specifically, Paul has retouched my photos to improve skin, shadows, wrinkles, eyes, teeth and hair, while removing background distractions. Paul provides exceptional work and a rapid turnaround, and as an added bonus to my working with Paul, he has taught me a few things along the way. I’ll mention two: Color Space and High Pass Sharpening.” — Nancy, Darien
