Timelapse: Restoring and Colorizing an Old Damaged Photo

Argentinian professional photographer and retoucher Joaquin Villaverde has a knack for restoring and colorizing old photographs. The video above is a time-lapse he made showing how he recently breathed new life into a vintage portrait that had a good amount of damage. It’s 2 hours of work in Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 condensed into 3 minutes.

Here’s what the photo looked like before and after Villaverde’s restoration:
