Fixing the Lighting
This Chicago, IL mom thought her holiday photos were unusable.
Lisa from Chicago, IL hosted a family dinner last November. Her sister took a photo of everyone at the table—the only shot from that night.
Too Dark
My mom took a photo of all of us at Thanksgiving dinner. It was the only shot we got from that night. But the dining room light was too dim and you could barely see anyone's faces.
When Lisa looked at the photo later, she could barely see anyone's faces. The overhead light in the dining room hadn't been bright enough. The photo was all shadows.
“They saved the only photo we had from that night.”
— Lisa, Chicago, IL

Her sister found Made To Delight. The service fixes lighting problems—brightening dark photos, balancing harsh shadows, making faces visible.
I thought the photo was unusable. When I saw the brightened version, I could finally see my dad's smile, my sister's laugh, everyone around the table.
