The color and lighting would be great. The picture itself would be in great condition.
blurred
This is not possible – old photos become faded, torn, and damaged. There be not be many photos available of the person. They are usually in group pictures or just partial. They are often in black and white.
The more pictures you have, the better. I will review and choose the ones that will work best.
Picture guidelines
best quality (list specific formats and resolutions)
Have designed place where they can directly send photos – same place they will be stored and saved for future
Favorite pictures but also best quality
Ideally:
3-4 pictures of each person.
Whole body and head shots
Example of Before and After – Uncle Jack
Picture of the child
Bar or Bat mitzvah child taken behind the bimah during a rehearsal.
Depending on the poses available , the people can appear to be touching in the portrait.
Lighting and color is blended. Perspective and angle are adjusted.
Before and After with individual pictures each separate, then combined together in the final portrait
Setting in synagogue as if Bar/Bat Mitzvah at bimah with rest of people
The result will be
Collage – head shots
Example Lucy
In this examp
If not full body shots, not possible to take picture in synagogue, collage – with thematic background.
