Restored & ColourisedLooking for somewhere in Auckland to restore an old photograph? You don’t need to find a studio or hand over your precious original. Professional restoration is digital now, so where the editor sits makes no difference. Photo Repair Lab puts that same restoration directly in your hands — upload, restore, download, all in under a minute.
Your original stays safely with you, and the restored file is yours to print at any New Zealand photo lab, share with whānau, or frame.
Our AI is trained specifically on old and damaged photographs, so it handles fading, silvering, cracks, dust, water staining and mild tears while keeping faces and period detail faithful. You can also colourise black-and-white and sepia photographs, and upscale the result for large prints.
A professional retoucher in Auckland typically charges $40–$150 per photo with a multi-day turnaround. Photo Repair Lab starts at around $1 per photo and finishes in under a minute — and every new account gets 20 free credits.
