Not storing old photos in a cool, dry place. The best way to avoid damage from heat and humidity is by keeping your photos somewhere that’s dark, preferably with low temperatures and high relative humidity levels (between 30% – 50%).
Not keeping them away from children & pets. If you’ve ever tried sharing photos with your kids and pets, then you know that there are some risks involved — they’re inclined to chew on photos or get their sticky paws all over them! That’s why we always make copies of the originals & share those instead.
Having your photos on display. It’s a good idea to show your photos off occasionally, but if you’re leaving them on the table or in a frame where they’ll be exposed to light for extended periods of time, then it can cause fading and discoloration.
If you want to keep your photos are on display without risk, scan them first. This way, if the original photo fades away, you have a digital copy.
Not having digital scans as a backup. Imagine your house burns to the ground, or a flood destroys your home. You try to salvage the photos, but they’re all gone because you didn’t have a digital backup. Digital copies of your photographs are easy to create these days using your phone or scanner, so there’s no excuse to make them!
Not getting your deteriorating photos restored. If some of your precious memories have already deteriorated, you don’t want to lose them completely. Getting your old photos restored is not as expensive or complicated as you might think, and it’s worth every penny when you see your photos in their original condition again.
You need to save your memories before they get ruined forever. If you don’t, you won’t be able to remember them when you are older or share them with your children and grandchildren so that they can pass on the family legacy. Storing your old photos well is vital.
