What is the Value of a Photograph?

Determining the true value of a photograph is so much more than just the cost of printing it. As a mom, you know firsthand that your family's memories are priceless. We invest so much in our homes, our cars, and creating a wonderful life, but if we faced the unthinkable choice of saving only one possession from a fire, without hesitation, we'd all grab those "Photograph Memories." Why? Because they're irreplaceable; they're the tangible pieces of your family's story that you can never get back.

So, what is the value of a photograph?
