Sports Team Photos
Creased Sports Team Photos
Creased sports team photos usually come out of a print folded into a wallet, a letter or a pocket, then flattened again decades later. On a team photo the creasing shows as a white line where the emulsion broke along the fold, very often straight through a face, right across two rows of players with the coach at one end and a ball on the ground in front.
Upload a scan or a phone photo of the creased team photo and the AI-powered repair comes back in seconds with the jersey numbers, the trophy and the team banner left as they were. Where the creasing covered a face in sports team photos, check the result against family memory before you print it.
If the creasing on the team photo is worse than it looks, run Scratch & Tear Repair twice rather than reaching for a heavier setting. Then upscale the creased sports team photos for a reprint, since the output keeps the shape of the upload.

What matters for these photos
- A white line where the emulsion broke along the fold, very often straight through a face, spread over a team photo
- A creased team photo that is the only copy anyone has
- The jersey numbers, the trophy and the team banner, hidden under the creasing
- Creasing from a print folded into a wallet, a letter or a pocket, then flattened again decades later, on sports team photos from the 1900s to 1990s
Suggested order of passes
- 01
Remove the creasing
Scratch & Tear Repair targets a white line where the emulsion broke along the fold, very often straight through a face while keeping the jersey numbers, the trophy and the team banner in the team photo untouched.
Scratch & Tear Repair - 02
Repair the rest of the team photo
Face Restoration addresses the usual wear on sports team photos, tiny faces in a wide frame, a crease through the back row and jersey colors faded to pastel, once the creasing is gone.
Face Restoration - 03
Sharpen the faces of two rows of players with the coach at one end and a ball on the ground in front
Recovers the eye and skin detail the creasing softened; keep it at natural strength on sports team photos unless the faces are tiny.
Face Restoration - 04
Upscale the team photo for reprinting
