Photo restoration / framing shop?

Does anybody know of a good shop in the area to get non-standard sized photos framed? Something not too expensive but reasonably nice?

Also, I need to restore an old family photo. Any suggestions as to where to do it for not much?

One way to save money on framing is to get a mat cut for the photo that is a standard size on the outside and then buy an inexpensive standard size. You can either do this yourself or get it done at a store like Corners for a lot less than an entire custom frame with glass, etc. (If your photo is too weird a shape this might look funny, but it works for more than you'd think.)
