I'm Odette, a Miami portrait photographer and restoration artist
Coral Gables · Miami, Florida
Torn. Faded. Water-stained. Touched by mold or time or both.
Most families don't have just one photograph worth saving. They have a drawer, a box, an album. Decades of faces and moments waiting to be seen again.
I've restored 230+ photographs for families across Miami and Coral Gables, and I treat every single one as if it were from my own family album because I know what it means to carry photographs across an ocean and hold on to them like they're the last proof that something beautiful existed.
Heirloom Restoration for Miami Families
Preserving generational memory, one photograph at a time
These are not just photographs.
They are proof that the people you love existed, laughed, and mattered.
For many families — especially those who came to Miami carrying only what they could bring — these images are the only evidence of a life lived before everything changed.
A grandparent's face.
A home that no longer stands.
A moment from 1940 that no one alive remembers except through this one photograph.
They are relics of displacement, survival, and cultural memory, and they deserve to survive.
This work is personal to me. I brought my grandparents' photo album with me from Cuba, and it remains one of my most treasured possessions.
When I restore a photograph for your family, I bring that same reverence to every image.
"This is the only picture my father has with his mother, father, and two brothers, dated 1940.
We thought restoring it wouldn't be possible. Odette did her magic.
Neither could my father hide his euphoric emotions when he received the gift."
— Alina Rodriguez · Family portrait, 1940
This is the only photograph he has with his mother, father, and two brothers, taken in 1940, when he was 5 years old. His family thought restoration wasn't possible. It was his Christmas gift.

Before-and-After Photo Restoration Examples
Every restoration you see below began as a photograph someone thought might be lost forever.
The Memory Project
A Living Archive
Your story belongs here
Every restoration has a story behind it.
The photograph. The person in it. The family member who found it in a drawer, or carried it across an ocean, or gave it as a gift and watched someone cry when they opened it.
These are the stories I think about long after the work is done... and they deserve to be told.
If I restored a photograph for your family and you'd like to share the story behind it, I would be honored.
A few words about who is in it and why it mattered. A photo of it hanging in your home. A short video of the moment someone received it as a gift.
Whatever feels right to you.
Every story preserved is a story that endures.
Real stories. Real moments.
Christopher Rodriguez
"Odette put her professional touch and love into the restoration. The result was not just a restored portrait. It was a masterpiece that captured the essence of the original.

George Anthony
"The original photo had grown mold in storage and most of it was unrecognizable. Odette was able to restore these priceless heirlooms. She is not talented — she is magical. She produces museum-quality work."
