Kirsty Saalfrank Photography


Combining the nostalgia of black & white family photos with modern digital creativity for a unique personal keepsake.




Similar to a photomontage; I blend multiple family photos with strategic pops of color that results in a truly unique and artistic piece. Think of it as a double, triple or quadruple exposure, to achieve that look, I use advanced digital blending modes and masking techniques. This allows for transparency, subtle overlaps, and intriguing visual connections between the different photos, making it look like they were always meant to be together.

Start with some photos

Mail me (yes, via the post) up to 10 of your favorite family photos (some old and some new, with and without people!).

I will digitize them and mail them back to you.

Tell me a little about the photo…


Who is that person?

Where did they live?

What was their favorite things to do?



Tell me a little about you…

Your favorite colors?

Subtle and ethereal or artsy and vibrant?








And I will create something new:


This was a found photo from my grandmothers collection, labeled as a past love of hers who went missing during the war, so I decided to cover him with ethereal white flowers, honoring his smile. Adding some lightness to what would have been a dark time.

Your favorite colors?

More samples!


This is my mum! She lived in the UK (thus the interesting bathing suit from 1957). Her favorite colors are pink and blue and I love abstract pieces.

This is also a sample of a framed option for your final piece.


More samples!


This is a found photo of a wartime plane that I wanted to celebrate. As told to me, it’s like I found an old camera in a closet and started recapturing the world around me. Essentially it’s a double, triple exposure.


Email, text or call me to get started!
