I need help removing small item from photos.
Today spent Thanksgiving at my mothers house with my brother, family friend of over 60 years and my niece with her boy friend. These images were taken with a cell phone, probably an iPhone of my brothers wife.
I am the very hansom guy in the Red sweater shirt. My Mother is 90 and very alive, alert and active healthy.
These images mean very much to me and others so I am reaching out to only ones I can trust, the HOG Pro's here.
Please help me fix these images. I need a Photoshop person to remove obstructions on these images. I have the subscription to Adobe and used Lightroom to auto adjust and tweak them but I do not know how to use Photoshop.
This first image I think is the best so if a member could kindly do me a favor and remove the Black cord and glass angel which goes to the ceiling fan, and the candle stick and white chair, this would make the image perfect. I want to share it with the guy on the right where these are obstructive. He may not be with us long and I want to print these off for him, it will mean SO much to me and him and the others.
I can crop down the overhead light later but this is the one I cherish.

If the black cord and candle can be removed from this one it would be great.

You have the subscription. Photographers don't learn photoshop. They learn the parts the need. A few weeks ago there was another update to photoshop and it included improvements and simplification of object removal.
You deserve seeing how it works. There have been many videos on the new techniques in the last couple of weeks. Try this one:

Used LrC for this. Latest version has a content aware tool.

I use Affinity Photo to remove objects, both small and large. It's easy and does a good job and is very inexpensive to buy. Surely you will have need of this tool in the future and won't want to go online for help every time??

OP has Photoshop already. Just needs to put in the time to learn it.

Thank you for the reply its. I am assuming you refer to Light room classic ? Yes I have it. 'Hopefully' later on today or so I will dig into this. I will probably need to learn this because I may need this in the future.
Thanks again,
bruce.

This is my try at the removal. Not great but maybe good enough.

Thank you guys, all of you who replied. I did watch most of the Utube link previously sent, while enjoying my morning coffee. This is why I came to the Pro's here on the HOG because you guys have blazed this trail before and I TRUST your opinions and resources. I am excited to get onto this and I have about 20 or so more pictures taken by me and others which I can try this out on. It will be a while before I can get to it though.
THANK YOU Again guys, and a cold one for each of you.

My impression from his posts is that learning and using Photoshop was a problem for him as it would be for me. If so, there are easy to use and inexpensive alternatives and Affinity Photo is one of them. If I can learn to remove objects with it than anyone can.
Was just trying to be helpful, sorry if I had a misimpression as to why he was unable to remove spots with Photoshop and asked for help.

Nice job! Why not also eliminate the small bit of molding on the wall/ceiling?
Be well! Happy Thanksgiving all. Ed
I worked the first one since it was the one you liked the best. I didn't remove the chair because I thought it would indicate some this was amiss.
