Can you help?


Hi all

I am thinking of starting a sideline business of image retouching, enhancing. Some of the services I will be offering will be restoring old photos, adding colour to b/w images and generally some photo retouching...but an an affordable price. I just wondered if there was much call for it and would appreciate any comments on how many of you would use such a service. I have shown an example of a quick one I did recently.

Thanks
Lloyd

  1. I have got into photography myself recently but haven't yet experimented with the b/w and colour photos in one. I think it looks very clever to be honest and I hope you manage to get it off the ground.

  2. Hi WTYFGI,

    Not sure if I'd pay for it. Really depends on what the package and cost would be.

    I would be more interested in buying an online course that taught me how to do it, simply and with a focus on family/children.

    If that was supported by participants uploading, before and after photos on your blog each week, to show they know. I think it'd be very interesting.

    (Love that silhouette on your banner btw.)
    Best of luck,
    Hari x

  3. I know there's a lot of it about for old vintage photographs and wedding photos etc it wuol dall depend up on the cost. I thik an idea of a course on how to do it would be more profitable...

  5. I paid an extortionate £30 to get an old B&W baby photo converted to colour for my Mum's bday - I reckon there's a market there, if you can offer more affordable options. People love those box canvas prints - have you looked into that side of things??

  6. Hi MLM

    £30!!!! Wow! I would have been interested to see the result for £30. It's a shame I didn't post earlier cos I would have done it for you as a favour. Box canvas prints...now there'a a thought...
