Private diagnosis

Start with a private diagnosis.

The photograph is sent only for private diagnosis. We explain its condition, what can be recovered and the next step.

If you use your phone

Keep the phone parallel to the photograph, with even light and no reflections. A clean angle avoids distortion and loss of detail.

If using a scanner

The safest option is a flatbed scanner at 600 PPI or more, ideally at the device's maximum optical resolution.

Our approach

Every photograph has a story to tell.

We handle each image with the care it deserves: privacy, technical precision, and respect for the original.

Privacy first.

The evaluation only starts the request. Restoration is done locally, the photograph only enters a portfolio with explicit consent, and it can be deleted 14 days after delivery.

Local restoration, human review.

We work in a controlled environment, with local tools and manual finishing. The goal is not to embellish the image, but to restore readability, texture, and coherence.

Fidelity before spectacle.

When information is missing, we prefer to ask for references and move carefully. The final photograph should still feel like yours, not like a pretty invention.

JUDGEMENT BEFORE EFFECT

Between technology and memory, there is a human decision

Restoration is not automatic. It is guided by the photograph's context, respect for the original and the real limits of each image.

At Memórias, every photograph begins with a careful reading: period, face, clothing, light, damage and family intention. Technology helps recover presence. But the final decision is human: what to correct, what to preserve and where to stop.

Reading the original

Before intervening, I observe the photograph's context and what belongs to its story: marks, texture, atmosphere and identity.

Limited intervention

I correct damage, stains, tears and wear without rewriting faces, backgrounds or details that change the memory.

Private delivery

The file is treated as family heritage: private, controlled and never used as a public example without authorisation.

Frequently asked questions

The essentials on privacy, price and result.

Direct answers to the most common questions before you proceed.

Is the restoration done automatically?

No. The process involves careful digital editing and human review.

Can you recover any photograph?

It depends on the condition of the original. Very damaged photographs can have real limits, but we always make an honest assessment before moving forward.

Will my photograph be published?

No. Only with explicit permission.

Can I request deletion of files after delivery?

Yes. You can request deletion after the service is completed.

Can I print the restored photograph?

Yes. The delivery can be prepared for printing.

Why are there founder values?

During the launch of PertoDaqui Memórias, the first restorations benefit from special values until the places are filled. The evaluation remains private and the final value is confirmed after analysis of the photograph.

Why should I hire PertoDaqui Memórias instead of using an automatic AI tool?

Because a family photograph is not just a file. In many external tools, the image can leave your control and become subject to the platform's terms. At PertoDaqui Memórias, the work is done with local processing, human review and visual judgement. This reduces privacy risks and prevents the restoration from inventing faces, expressions, clothing or details that never existed. The goal is not to create a "new" photograph. It is to recover the memory with respect.
