Earlier I told you about what we did to get files ready to have their photo debut. Now I want to show what a photo shoot looks like in the New Hampshire State Archives. Once the documents are "fluffed" and ready to go they are put in a box where they wait until we are ready to start taking pictures. In our previous set of probate work we managed to have about four boxes always waiting to be captured but right now we have just one box waiting for the final step.

| This is the area we work in when we are taking pictures. It consists of the camera, computer, the monitor, the surface where the documents go, and a framed piece of glass that we put over the documents before we take the picture. |

| When we are ready to start we take out a stack of folders that we will be taking pictures of. Depending on how many documents are in each folder we usually need anywhere from 15 up to 30 folders. |
