I have 28 cherished family shots that were taken against bright windows and the details are now buried in shadow and haze. My top priority is pulling as much clarity out of each frame as possible, followed by tasteful light recovery and gentle de-hazing so the pictures will hold up beautifully when I print them in a keepsake album.

To be confident we’re a good match I’d like you to choose one of the images I’ll provide, work your magic on it, and send back a water-marked preview. Seeing how you tackle those blocked-up shadows and bring definition to faces is the key step before I commit the full batch.

Please share a link to past work that shows similar rescue edits—anything involving heavy back-lighting, blown highlights, or noisy under-exposure will be most relevant. A concise note on your approach in Photoshop, Lightroom, or any other preferred retouching tools is helpful, but I’m weighing results over theory.

Deliverables once we move forward:
• 28 high-resolution, print-ready files (JPEG or TIFF, 300 dpi) with restored detail, balanced tones, and no visible haze.
• Consistent colour treatment across the set so the album flows seamlessly.

If the sample meets expectations we can start immediately and I’ll supply the rest of the RAW or highest-quality originals. Looking forward to bringing these memories back to life together.
