Memory Cherish has made my Mother the happiest she has been in 40 years.

After the loss of my brother who passed away at the age of 32, Memory Chrish has brought him back to life by restoring the youngest photo she has of him as a child to perfect pristine condition.

Thanks to Memory Cherish, she can now re-cherish this photo of him after our terrible loss, where he is happy with his two older brothers. Big thanks to the artist who has done a tremendous job of giving my mother her baby back. She cried in happiness to be given back a piece of her son. She "cannot believe how amazing that photo is". Thank you to the artist and all the amazing team at Memory Cherish. Words can barely express the new lease of life which my mother has. Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Review by a Very Disappointed Customer

I wanted to improve pictures taken in the 1920s and 1930s. Memory Cherish advertised they could do that for a very reasonable amount, $38 per photo, if I recall the amount correctly. Ultimately, they charged me almost $100 per photo. Had the product been good, I would not have minded their running up the cost. But the pictures weren't even as good as I could do with my HP printer. Such a disappointment! And they refused to provide an address where I could return them. Also they refused to provide a link to rate them. It's not surprising they tout a 5.0, as no one unhappy with their work can submit a review to them. I hope potential customers read this review before spending money on Memory Cherish's work. It's not worth it.

AMAZING!!!! I'm blown away!

I am blown away at the restoration of a family portrait I sent to them! It was severely smoke damaged from 24 years of smoking in the house. The picture didn't have glass over it in the frame and I guess I never paid attention. Now it's beautiful and looks like the day it was taken. Thank you memory cherish!

Horrible experience

Horrible experience. Weeks after placing my order and not receiving my photos, the support team could only say they were shipped and still in route - keep waiting. 3 weeks after order and order is still "stuck in route" 🙄.Filed a dispute with Credit card and received my payment back and moved on. Look around, there's plenty of options before wasting time with these oeople

We’re very sorry to hear about your disappointing experience, and we truly regret that we couldn’t meet your expectations.

The quality of work declined significantly after I placed multiple restoration orders. Since their communication options are limited, I reached out via email. Unfortunately, my request for a refund was denied. Their website is cumbersome and not user-friendly, which only adds to the frustration. It’s extremely disheartening that a company lacks a more accessible website and better communication options. While I gave them one star because the work I did receive was of good quality, I cannot, in good conscience, recommend this website.

Absolutely fantastic company

Absolutely fantastic company. I previously had two pictures colorized by another company and they looked totally fake. I subsequently sent these two pictures to Memory Cherish and they look absolutely fantastic. It’s as if the original pictures were taken in color. I cannot give a higher rating to this company. They do excellent work. If you want to colorize a picture, don’t go to any other company. These are the experts.

I can't say enough how pleased I am with the whole process of having my precious Mother's childhood picture restored by MemoryCherish! They did an absolutely beautiful job!! They were professional, friendly, & so thoughtful to keep me updated on their progress. Very fast service too. Also; I mistakenly processed the same order twice.

Family memories brought back to life

I was looking to do something special for my mother for Christmas this year. I discovered your website via Google as I was interested in restoring two old black-and-white photos of my deceased grandparents from the World War II era. The final photos were exactly what I was hoping for, bringing vibrant color and detail, to my precious family memories. My mother will be very pleased! Throughout the process Natalie, Carolyn and everyone else were very helpful and polite. The website was easy to navigate and my orders arrived in perfect condition. Thank you and wish you all a Merry Christmas!

Amazing repair of an old group photo of motorcyclist.

I sent a scan of a B&W photograph from the early 1980s a large group of motorcyclist in a funeral procession. The enlarged photograph had been on display on a without protection of a frame or glass. Needless to say it had not weathered well. The photo had suffered stains, scratches and dings. The repaired image was superb and we were impressed with the repair on faces that previously were unrecognisable. A brilliant result all round.
