How to Care for Your MILK Photo Book or Photo Album

We handcraft each Photo Book or Album using archival quality materials. Follow our Care Guide to ensure your precious memento is enjoyed by the next generation.

For all Photo Books & Albums:

To prevent fading of the images and cover materials we recommend storing your Photo Book or Photo Album in a dark place, ideally in one of our Presentation Boxes for optimal protection from light, dust, and environmental factors. If dark storage isn’t suitable then your creation should be stored away from direct sunlight and never left open for long periods of time.

Never store your Book or Album in an area where it may be subjected to extreme heat, humidity or any contact with moisture. A controlled environment with humidity of no more than 60% is recommended.

 

Photo Albums should always be stored flat rather than vertically due to the weight of the thick pages which will stress the binding if stored incorrectly.

When viewing your Album always support the binding by resting the back cover on a clean surface. Never suspend your album by its cover as the weight of the album may damage the binding.
