Thank you for the final save. Like most photos before this digital era, I have one copy of a picture of my mother and me when I was a child. No negatives, no photographer or digital file to reference. And my mother presented this photo to me in the same frame it has been in since the 1980s. Unfortunately, time wore on this picture so much that there were stains; the photo was damp and stuck to the glass and began to rip. I worked with Jason to restore this image. He was able to scan the image through the glass, correct the lighting, and have quite a few issues with the photo. With a whole lot of patience, the picture was restored. And now we have a digital copy! He is wonderful. I truly appreciate his dedication to his work. He honors the images as if they were his own. He was absolutely amazing. Thank you, Jason! read more

I have worked with Jason for many years and have entrusted him with my most treasured photographs. Including rmagic repairing early 1900s battered black and white photos. Now we have lovely images that are preserved for our kids, nephews and nieces. Its surprising that once you find someone of his skill, you always see opportunities to get that one touchup that really makes the pic perfect. From graduation photos, to holidays and vacation photos, he has updated many. And always responsive and timely in delivery. Five stars without hesitation. read more

I made the terrible mistake of going to a franchised copy center to get some copies made of old photos. The clueless staff put a sticky note on one of the photos and completely ruined it. After having a meltdown, I did some research and found Rose Restorations. Wow, is he talented. I actually brought in several dozen photos to get scans and repairs made. Everything came out so much better than I had hoped. read more

Rose Restorations - Before and after of one fixed photo. - Photography Stores & Services Near Me

My wife has this old picture of her from when she was little. I've been staring at it, sun faded and torn, sitting there tossed aside for years. As a surprise, I decided to have it restored and did some research on where to go. Yelp led me to Jason at Rose Restorations. I met up with Jason at a local cafe, he sized up the project, and a couple of weeks later (I wasn't in a rush so I told him to take his time), a miracle. My wife was so taken with the before/after that while the restored version hands on our wall, she keeps the old one nearby to show people, saying "can you believe this?" Highly recommended. Keep in mind the photos attached are quick cell phone snaps, they don't properly reflect the finished product. read more

The impact my maternal grandmother is still felt 50 years after her death. My cousin and I spent almost every weekend at her apartment. She began (or continued) some family traditions that we have passed along to the next generations. Jason restored a quadtyc of faded and damaged photos of her as a child and young woman and brought enough copies to share with my siblings and children. Looking at these restored photographs refreshes the memories of my time with the woman who most influenced and crafted my values and beliefs. The process of working with Jason was easy, respectful, professional, as promised and very affordable. I cannot wait to give Jason the rest of the family photos to restore. SO HAPPY!!!!!! read more

First encounters are so important in business. Today I cold called RR with the help of a listing on Yelp. My family has a memorial service on Friday and we have been so busy we forgot to get pictures for the service ahead of time. Desperate for a special request I decided to call a professional. This business popped up first even though I was searching for another established photo business. Because of the excellent rating (I didn't have time to read the reviews this time) and because it looked like a small business I gave Jason, the owner a call. Jason was extremely considerate and thoughtful. He was empathetic about our situation and he became more and more supportive as the conversation progressed. Because we have a major time constraint he offered to make a phone call on our behalf to get the process started. Even though we elected to take another route that will be a little easier I would not hesitate to call this business in the future and entrust Jason with my restoration services. read more

Best birthday present ever! My spouse worked secretly with Jason to have Jason restore my most precious photo of myself as a nearly newborn baby with my mom. It had faded significantly over the years, and I practically burst into (happy) tears when I saw it fully restored - in fact, better than I remember it ever being, since it was already several decades old when I first found it among our old family photo albums. Thank you Jason for preserving this treasure for me and for my family. read more

We did much research when looking for someone to restore our family photos that are over 100 years old. This is not a job to entrust to someone without having a high degree of confidence. We are so happy that we chose Rose Restorations for the project. The work done by Rose Restorations is exceptional, transforming our old damaged photos to new brilliant ones. The detailed work included corrections and perfections to specifics that we had not even considered. Jason was very helpful in walking me through the process and providing options and suggestions. He was able to accommodate my need to work with him remotely, eliminating the need to travel to the studio. We are very pleased with our photos and highly recommend Rose Restorations! read more

Jason does amazing photo restoration work! A really great gift of a childhood photo that seemed bleached beyond repair, but he made it look new! read more

Jason has completed several restoration projects for me, a newspaper article and photograph from the 1920's and other photographs of long passed relatives. Some of these photos are the only ones I have to remember them by. Jason takes the care needed to restore not just the subjects of the photo, but gives depth to their soul. I look at these photos often and think of what was many years ago. Jason takes meticulous attention to ensure that he has it right and reviews with you as the work progresses. His recent work has also exceed my expectations and will be a gift for my aunt for her 90th birthday. read more

Just had five photos restored and Jason did a phenomenal job, i am very happy. Thanks

There's a strange duality to my existence because I spend half my time dedicated to the freelance curatorship of various antiquities, and the other half fucking around on web 2.0 with the rest of gen-Y. It's a weird product of modern existence and mild antisocial tendencies. I'm a catch! Anyway, some of these antiquities include photos of the family W. dating from the 1920's, which are understandably marked and faded and in a state of general decline. It was important that I figure out the best possible course for preservation, not only because I'm a preservationist but also because the family W. is extremely attractive and faded sepia was just not doing them justice. Good local photo restorers are surprisingly not located on every corner, so luckily web 2.0 busted out Rose Restorations. I was very pleased with the service; the photo was digitally rendered, cleaned up, changed in tone, blown up to 8x10, and the original returned to me intact together with copies and data CD for less than the cost of a decent frame. An excellent option for digitizing your antiquities. read more

If I need to get something done, I go to Yelp first. The previous reviews of Rose Restorations were not anomalies. Jason is the real deal. I rescued (very) old photos from my grandmother's house in Puerto Rico. Years of mishandling, heat and humidity took a toll on the only photos of my grandfather when he was 19, my grandparent's wedding portrait and one of my mom and her three siblings as tiny tots. Jason handled these precious heirlooms as though they were his own. His professionalism and attention to detail are top notch. His turn around time was quick and the results exceeded my expectations. For a fair fee, he returned the originals, restored copies and a CD with the files on them. I highly recommend Jason! He is a true find! read more

Jason was incredibly understanding about my concern for the details in restoring an old photo. He was even willing to go extra steps to make sure it was right for minimal additional costs. He did all this with a professional demeanor that ensured me he wasn't messing around with his craft. The result is a fabulously restored photo that doesn't look cartoony or artificial. I would recommend Jason's service to anyone who wants custom service with a high level of professionalism without breaking the bank. Thanks Jason! read more

This gentlemen is a magician; his skills far exceed what we mere mortals can do on photoshop. He underpromised and overdelivered at a fair and reasonable price. I am pleased that I relied on the past experiences of others described here because his past praises are and remain well deserved. read more

Yelp comes through again! I had two very old, irreplaceable photographs of my great-grandmother. Both were taken in the old country and showed lots of "character," including a missing corner and all sorts of wrinkles and creases on one and stains and general discoloration on the other. I was very reluctant to send them off to some restoration place sight unseen, so I relied on Jason Rose's reviews here and it's a good thing I did. Jason was super quick to respond to my e-mail and even came to my office for a consultation and to pick up the originals. A few weeks later, he had transformed them into exactly what I'd been hoping to see, delivering a print of each and a CD with jpegs. He got rid of all the flaws and even filled in the missing part. True artistry! read more

Old pictures are a window to the past, so when my in-laws passed away, and there was only one copy of their wedding album, I convinced my sister-in-law to let me borrow the album and trek it 3000 miles so that we would be able to make copies. After months of searching, I discovered Jason on Yelp. Of course my review is only regarding duplication but Jason's professionalism and finished product has me convinced that any other photo project I have, will be entrusted to Jason Rose. read more

Jason recently restored some family photos for me - he did a great job and I'm so pleased to have him as a resource. He is bright, professional, and meticulous. One photo Jason restored for me was from a visit to Cape Cod when I was six years old, with me wearing my favorite sweater at the time. I have long treasured this photo of a very happy beach trip, and as such the picture had become very sun-bleached over the years. Jason did an excellent job restoring the color and contrast. I was particularly pleased with Jason's understanding in getting the color of the sweater exactly right (even though this took a few rounds of edits and I was describing the color from memory), because I wanted the photo to match the memory precisely. Jason also restored a few photos of my Dad and myself from when I was a toddler that I plan to give as Christmas gifts to my parents; I'm sure they'll be amazed to find anyone still has these photos, much less to see them in brand-new condition. read more

I went onto Yelp and searched for Photo Restoration. Jason's is the first that came up, and I took a chance. So glad I did! I didn't even compare prices or search around. I just went with my gut instinct and am so happy! We have two photos - one of each of my in-laws and they are the only pics of them pre-1990s. They are very small, cracked, worn down and faded. Jason did some great work and made them beautiful. He even made some prints for us. I can't wait to frame them and give them as gifts for the holidays! Oh yea - the best part is he put them on CD for us so we can get our own prints if we want more. And about the $ - I still haven't bothered to compare prices, but I found his rates to be very reasonable and fair for a good service. Thanks, Jason! read more

I inherited a 1918 stereoscopic photograph of school children standing in front of a school. It had been rolled up and was so badly cracked and foxed that I didn't dare unroll it for fear of damaging it further. I entrusted it to Jason Rose, and he succeded way beyond my wildest expectations. A piece of the archway in the school building entrance had been torn away, and Jason was able to restore it by flipping the other side of the arch to make it whole. You could see clearly and distinctly each child looking at you with his or her mischevious grin across 86 years; one of them was my grandmother. After I found Jason on Yelp, he came to my office after we exchanged calls and emails. We met, discussed terms, costs, etc. I handed him my precious photograph and off he went. A day later, he emailed me a statement, I approved the charges and in three weeks I had my prints and a jpeg on a CD. I couldn't be more pleased with his professionalism and most importantly, the results. read more

I needed to have an enlargement made for my sister's Memorial Service. Time was short, and in the picture her husband selected, my sister needed to be extracted from an old photo of her with her husband. A young photographer friend recommended Jason Rose so I contacted him immediately. He had a very full workload already, but somehow he managed to work this commission into his schedule--and did a PHENOMENAL job!! I feared the 20" x 22" enlargement might be grainy, but in NO WAY is it grainy, and the color is better than the original. It is mounted it on a polystyrene board with a slim gold border. My brother-in-law will fall in love with my sister all over again! If there were 10 stars instead of just 5, I'd give Jason 10 stars....and I'm a very discerning person when it comes to quality. We haven't even met! We negotiated completely by phone and email. Furthermore, Jason was forever professional, gracious, responsible and wanting to please. His price was VERY reasonable for the excellent quality. read more

Jason was friendly and a great listener, paying attention to what I was looking for in my photos. I would highly recommend him for any restoration work! read more

I found Jason on Yelp, while trying to find a way to salvage a quickly fading photo booth picture strip...for my mother in law. Who doesn't want to get in their MIL's good graces?! Anyway, I emailed Jason a scan and due to the poor quality of the original he was able to restore it, but he didn't have much hope for doing any enlargements. When I sent him the original he was actually able to improve the quality to the point that he was able to make enlargements! His work is fabulous, my MIL was thrilled with her saved pictures. Jason's customer service is also excellent. He responds quickly to any questions and is very good at communicating throughout the process. I have some old family pictures floating around, some damaged pretty badly, when I dig them out Jason will most definitely be seeing more of my business. Very happy customer! :) read more

Jason took an old and badly damaged photo of my father -- my mother's favorite of him -- and not only completely restored it, but made some seamless additional cosmetic changes to improve it. It really brought that moment in their lives back for her. She framed it right away and it cheers her every day. Jason's technical skill is top, and his care and understanding of the importance of these heirlooms comes through clearly. We could not be happier with his work. read more

It was a pleasure to do business with Jason. He did an EXCELLENT job on restoring and reproducing some old family photographs. He came promptly to review the photos, took great care of them, and returned them, with his completed work right on the day he promised. His pricing was fair, and his work is excellent! read more

I had never used a photo restoration service before so I really didn't know what to look for. I happened to run across a reference to Jason Rose here on Yelp and he was local to me so I gave him a try. He took a 75-year old, faded, sepia photo that had been ripped in half and then taped back together sometime in the past (over someone's face, by the way) and turned it into a seemingly new, fresh photo! The people, who seemed rather lifeless and bland in the faded original family photo, now seem so much more lifelike and "real" in this restored version. I'm grateful to Jason for helping me keep this precious piece of my family history alive and available for many more years. read more

Jason did a wonderful job fixing and restoring an old picture of my grandmother. It looks so nice and I got it just in time to frame them for my family as Christmas gifts. He was very professional and I will definitely use him again. Thanks for making the picture look as good as new. read more

Jason did a fabulous job on the two photos he restored for me. He is meticulous, professional and a pleasure to work with. 5 stars! 5 stars! 5 stars! read more

This is the second restoration Jason has "magically" performed on damaged and faded photos for us. The first was a precious photo of my daughter at six months that had faded with time. Jason brought back to life this cherished photo, perhaps even better than original. This last project was a photo of my husband & I that had sections peeled off from being stuck to frame glass when I removed it. The restored photo is perfect and no one would ever know it was ever damaged! Jason is amazing. read more
