Ever found an old photo, excited to relive the memory, only to realize it’s faded into a dull, ghostly version of its former self? Yep, it happens to the best of us. But why do old photos fade, and is there anything you can do about it? Let’s break it down!

Why Do Photos Fade?

Sunlight is great for selfies but terrible for printed photos. UV rays break down the chemicals in photo paper over time.

High humidity can cause mold and fading, while extreme temperatures speed up photo deterioration.

Keeping photos in a shoebox in the attic? Not ideal. Acidic paper, bad-quality albums, and even certain plastics can cause fading.

Dust, smoke, and chemicals in the air (yes, even that old-school hairspray) can cause photos to degrade faster.

How to Keep Your Photos Looking Fresh

Keep photos in acid-free albums or archival boxes.

If you frame them, use UV-protected glass.

A stable, dark, and cool environment is best. No basements or attics!

Scan your favourites so you always have a copy.
