I sent MemoryCherish a photo I took on my phone of a full page of a newspaper from December 7, 1943. The original page was very fragile and the folds in the paper made the picture distorted. The paper could not be scanned. No problem! They asked for close up photos of critical areas. The result was amazing! I now have 16x20 prints which are clear and legible for my grandkids. They worked with me every step of the way and I will use them again.
This is my 2nd order. The photos are absolutely amazing. The restoration brought back memories for us from 50 years ago. I strongly recommend MemoryCherish.
Such a positive experience from beginning to end!Prompt response to email inquiries,courteous and professional. Have been wanting to get this photo restored for years and beyond pleased with the results

Thank you so much, Kathie! We truly appreciate your kind words and recommendation. It means a lot to our team, and we’re so happy you were pleased with your restorations!
MemoryCherish did a great job of restoring a 40 year old 8X10 photo of me, which was really faded. The process was very simple, they completed it by the next day and their customer service was great. I would recommend them highly.
Amazing experience with Memory Cherish! They were so professional and helpful with our pictures. I appreciate their patience with our revisions. Thank you for restoring our children's pictures. I would highly recommend using this company for your picture restorations needs.

I like that it felt more personal, human contact, and not like just using a computer generated picture. They were very good about providing multiple revisions. Can’t wait to get my print in the mail!

My 55 year old photo that had been damaged by water was repaired and reproduced by MemoryCherish and it turned out absolutely beautiful! They used”real” artists, not AI.

Unsuccessful Restoration but Responsive Customer Service
Revised: I have nothing but praise for the customer service of this company. They have reached out several times to explain their process in more detail (including that AI might be used in the process but not as part of the restoration) as well as to explain why the ultimate photo product was unsatisfactory. I believe most of the issue was a combination of a very difficult photo restoration on my part and lack of communication on their part. I would have preferred them to tell me the photo was unrestorable rather than continue to send subpar attempts to fulfill the order; on their side, they were attempting to complete my order. My complete purchase price was promptly refunded once we discussed the matter further. I do believe with simpler photo situations (less damage, fewer individuals in the photo needing restoration, etc.) the results may have been more acceptable.
Unfortunately I did not have a good result with MemoryCherish. I shared a heavily faded photo of six individuals, knowing it was going to be a difficult task. However, the website advertising of restoration done "100% by hand" without "automatic programs to speed up" the process led me to believe it could be done.
That advertising is completely inaccurate. The photo product I received for review was saved with the file name "ChatGPT Image", making it clear AI was used. However, even that clue wasn't needed, because the photo was a disaster. While all six individuals were sitting lakeside, in casual clothes that can still be seen in the faded photo, the AI image showed three individuals in the clothes they had been wearing in reference photos I included; one individual was in a full suit, while another was in a sweater and a third in a long-sleeved button down shirt. Additionally, the faces looked nothing like the individuals, even after providing reference photos.
I was willing to give the company another chance, however, so I provided feedback regarding clothes, hair and facial features. In the new revision I just received, all individuals are now wearing plain white t-shirts. Clothing is fixed, if basic, but what about hair and faces? Solved, according to the company: they cut and pasted the heads from my reference photos and pasted them on the photo. However, they did not accurately size those clips, adjust angles or lighting, or overall check for quality. They look like cartoon images of themselves.
I have asked for a full refund of my money, which their site says will be done if the customer is not satisfied. I'm hoping that will be completed as advertised.
I have been meaning to do this photo restoration for a long time, Kelly my initail contact was super helpful with prompt replies and answered all of my questions and concerns. The final product is amazing and I am so grateful for their expertise. This photo restoration means the WORLD to me and I couldn't by happier with the product and process. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
