Snapshot Archive

The Snapshot Archive collects photographs taken by amateur photographers, typically found in secondhand stores or via online vendors. The collection aims to highlight the talent and eye of amateur photographers capturing everyday life. Our mission is to use the power of the Internet to make these items accessible to a wider audience so that they may truly be appreciated. The Archive has a physical location in Philadelphia, PA, and is open to the public four days a week. Specific research requests may be sent to our email at contact@snapshot.archive.
