Your lifelong photos, ready to move you all over again

Revivelia illustration: a portrait going from sepia to warm colour

From sepia to colourmade by hand in Madrid

As simple as that

How it works

You bring the memories; we bring the hours of work and the care.

  1. Tell us about the occasion

    Fill in the form: who it's for, the date of the event and the product you'd prefer.

  2. Send us the photos

    Scan them or photograph them straight on, in good light and without glare (never a photo taken of a screen). If you prefer, we'll explain how to send them on paper.

  3. We restore and put it together

    We remove tears, stains and creases, bring the colour back and edit the video with music and a dedication.

  4. You review it and enjoy it

    We send you a preview, make your changes and you receive the final result ready to project or give as a gift.

Before and after

Slide and see the difference

Drag the handle (or use the arrow keys) to compare the original photo with the restored one.

BEFORE: a black-and-white family group by a fireplace, with faded faces and cracked paper
AFTER: the same scene restored and colourised, five family members with their natural faces and realistic colour
By the fireplaceBlack and white restored to full colour: the cracks and stains on the paper disappear and every person keeps their original face.
BEFORE: a paper portrait of five people, with lost detail in the faces and damaged paper
AFTER: the portrait restored with colour and sharpness, every person recognisable and unaltered
A family portrait brought backStains, cracks and dull colour brought back to life, without inventing or changing anyone.
BEFORE: a black-and-white portrait of a soldier with his wife and baby, faded and with damp stains
AFTER: the same military portrait restored and colourised, both adult faces and the baby unaltered
A military family keepsakeThe original black-and-white photo, restored with natural colours and faithfully respecting every person's features.

Real examples from our studio: public-domain photos (Wikimedia Commons), restored and colourised with the same process we use for every order. Every face has been checked before and after to make sure each person still looks like themselves.

Our commitment

How we work

We'd rather tell you what we do than fill this with reviews we don't have yet. When a customer gives us permission to publish theirs, you'll see it here.

You'll see a preview before delivery. We show you the result with a watermark so you can approve it before you receive the final files.

Every face, respected — and checked. We work on the faces one by one so the person is still themselves: their expression, their age, their likeness. And on every order we check it with a program that compares each face before and after. If any of them has changed, it doesn't leave here.

Your photos don't leave here. We don't share them with anyone or use them to train third-party tools. And we only show your before and after if you give us written permission.

We answer your questions

Frequently asked questions

How long does delivery take?

As it's a digital product, it's quick: restored photos and the art print as a file, in about 24 hours; the short video, in 24-48 hours; and the full video, in about 3 working days. The art print printed and sent to your home takes 7-10 working days, because it depends on the printer and on delivery.

The timescales start when we have all your photos and you've confirmed the texts and the song. If you have a specific date, tell us: if we can't make it in time, we'll say so before accepting the order.

How can I pay?

Whichever way is easiest for you: by card (through a secure Stripe payment link) or by Bizum. After submitting the form we take you straight to secure payment.

The photo pack and the short video are paid when you place the order. The full video and the printed art print, half at the start and the other half when you approve the preview. You'll receive an invoice by email.

How do I send you the photos?

Upload them directly in the order form: you can attach several at once (JPG, PNG or HEIC, up to 10 MB each). As soon as you submit it, we get to work.

If you have lots of photos or they are bigger, email them to hola@revivelia.com with your name. Avoid WhatsApp: it compresses photos and the lost quality can't be recovered.

What quality should the photos I send be?

The better the copy, the better the result. Ideally, scan them (300 dpi or more). If you photograph them with your phone, do it straight on, in good natural light, without flash and without glare, and with the photo completely flat.

Please never send us a photo taken of a screen: it loses a lot of detail and shows lines that can't be recovered.

I have photos on paper. How do you handle them?

If you have them on paper, the ideal is to scan them: at 300 dpi or more, saving as TIFF or PNG (not JPG, to avoid compressing twice). A standard desktop scanner is fine.

If you don't have a scanner, photograph with your phone straight on, without flash, in natural window light, and try to keep the photo as flat as possible. Take 2-3 shots in case one is blurry.

What you shouldn't do: trim, flatten or run them through apps like Remini or enhancers before sending them to us — that destroys detail and leaves us without the original information to work from.

If you'd rather skip all this, you can also send us the paper photos: we scan them and return them exactly as they came.

How many photos does each product include?

Restored photos: a pack of up to 10 photos for €9.99. Short video: up to 15 photos. Full video: up to 40 photos. Need more? We'll put together a custom quote.

What happens to my photos and my data? Do you give the originals back?

Your photos are only used for your order. We don't share them with anyone or use them to train third-party tools. When we're done you receive all the files and we delete our copies within 30 days, unless you ask us to keep them. If you send us photos on paper, we give them back to you by hand or by recorded delivery, exactly as they arrived. More information in our privacy policy.

Are you going to show my photos on your social media?

Only if you authorise it by ticking the box in the form, and you can withdraw that permission whenever you like. Without your permission, your photos don't leave your order.

What if the photo is badly damaged?

Before we start we check every photo and let you know if any of them can't be properly recovered. We work on every face so the person is still themselves, and then a program compares each face with the one in the original to confirm that nobody has changed. If something doesn't add up, we redo it. No invented faces.

Can I ask for changes?

Yes. We send you a preview and we adjust the music, the order, the texts or the retouching.

Can I cancel or ask for a refund?

You can cancel at no cost before we start working. As it's a personalised order, once it has begun the 14-day right of withdrawal doesn't apply, but if something isn't right we'll sort it out in the revisions. See our terms of sale.

Can I have the photos as an art print to hang on the wall?

Yes, in two ways. We send you the file (€15) so you can print it wherever you like, in 30×40 cm or A3 at 300 dpi; or we print it and send it to your home (€59), mounted on rigid board and ready to hang, within 5-7 working days. We also give you the 4:3 version for digital frames and your individual photos in high resolution.

How does the printed art print work?

We print it once you confirm the order and we send it to your home, mounted on rigid board and without glass (so it doesn't break on the way). We need your delivery address, which you give us in the form. As it's a physical product, you have a 14-day right of withdrawal.
