Enhance Old Photos

Countless homes across the country have a box or two of old photos or negatives tucked away in a dusty corner, slowly deteriorating with the passage of time. If you are serious about preserving your family history, it may be time to dig these up and make sure they are properly preserved. With the right equipment, preserving family photos can be a breeze.

In most cases, you will be able to scan them and convert them to a digital file, ensuring that you always have a backup. These can also be digitally enhanced to reveal new information and tell stories about your forefathers. When it comes to physical copies, the National Archives website suggests using specially-made preservation files or folders to ensure your photos aren't damaged while in storage.
