Best Photo Restoration in Lethbridge
I have been doing photo restoration for over 39 years. I am the only restoration company in southern Alberta that was trained by Adobe, Epson, Kodak and Fuji in image editing and restoration. Restorations are a full time job, not a side job.

At Paterson Photography / First Choice Photo, we specialize in expertly copying, printing, and fully restoring your treasured old slides, negatives, and prints. From images as early as the 1800s to the present, we handle everything from tiny, dime-sized original prints to large original images up to 30 feet tall.
All restored images are printed on high-quality archival photo paper for exceptional longevity and preservation.
We can manage originals of any size – from wallet-sized prints to life-sized images. Unlike many other providers, we have no size limit on digitizing your original prints, negatives, or slides, ensuring you can preserve every memory in its entirety.
Museum photo & document restorations
We handle prints that are intact as well as those that are in multiple pieces.
Photos damaged by smoke, fire, or water can often be restored to better-than-new condition.
The best photo restoration – Saving & Restoring your memories
CAUTION
Many places that copy prints use photocopiers.
THIS IS NOT RIGHT!!!!!
When a photocopier makes a copy it does so by using tiny dots. This removes a lot of the information and quality from the original photo.
Using a photo copier also makes it impossible to make a quality copy from the copy.
DO NOT get photocopies of your memories. YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!!!!!
