Preparing Your Photos for Scanning
Proper handling and storage improve scan quality and preserve your originals


Organize and prepare your photos for lasting digital clarity
Separate photos by date, event, or family member to create a clear scanning order. Remove any damaged or stuck-together prints gently to avoid further harm. Use clean, dry hands or cotton gloves to handle each photo, minimizing fingerprints and smudges.
Store photos flat in acid-free envelopes or boxes to prevent bending or fading before scanning. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or humid environments. Label groups clearly to maintain organization throughout the scanning process and ensure accurate digital cataloging.
