Can someone help restore deceased uncles photo

My uncle died when he was young and my aunt was wondering if I knew anyone who could restore the photo for my grandmother. It would be greatly appreciated. I know it’s super blurry so if nothing could be done I would understand.

Restoration - 50th Wedding Anniversary

Hey folks!

My mom and dad's 50th anniversary is coming up. I'd love it if someone could do their magic on this photo. Mainly I'd like to get some detail back into their clothing and the bouquet. I'm aware this will likely be done in Stable Diffusion or something similar.

I'll tip $5 for the best one (best being as true to the original as possible). Color correction would also be appreciated. There's considerable red shift in the image.

If you could also straighten it and crop in closer to them. I'll be doing an 8.5x11" print. The guy on the right, and the head behind my dad's shoulder can be removed of course.

Thank you!

This is the first photo of my spouse's grandparents after they met in London during WWII, right before D-Day, 1944. Is it restorable?

A family is mourning the loss of a son, father and brother 5 days ago to suicide at 53. I'm the only person that has a picture of Billy when he was 20 yrs old. I want to restore, define, brighten and enlarge this for his family. I haven't seen Billy in 7 years, beyond heartbreaking.

Mom found the earliest picture she had of my brother the day she found out she was pregnant with me

She thinks this is shot, I have hope. We're celebrating his 50th and my 49th in a few months. Would love to see what someone could do. Tip definitely included...if colorization not possible just a restore is enough to bring some joy our way!

Hi, I wanted to upscale some old photos but none of the online ai upscaling tools seem to be doing a very good job. It would be great if anyone here could help me out. Thanks

Too far gone?

Hi, this may be a long shot but is there any way of restoring this? It’s a scan of an old photo which has degraded badly, peeling and dirty, but it’s the only one we have of my wife’s parents. Thank you in advance!

Help restoring photo of great grandmother

My Gram recently visited family in Japan and came upon this photo of her mother who passed away when Gram was a baby. We believe this is the last surviving photo of her and was hoping someone could help restore it.

Sorry for the bad quality, this was the best shot I could find in Gram's phone.
