I would suggest using a very high ISO, or take the photo outside on a bright, but not too sunny day, so that you can have a lot of light, but no glare. Don't use a flash, put your camera on a tripod, and take several shots. Sorry it took so long to answer. I have too many emails. Good luck, and God bless.

Any Advice? by: Anonymous
I am attempting to take a photograph of framed photos of my parents that were done in 1920. I want to include the frame so that I can then scan these photos in my family tree book that I am making for my children, nieces and nephews. I want it to be a head on shot so that it represents the original framed photograph. I have tried everything I can think of to make copies without glares from glass or without a flash. I know if I take the beautiful frames out of the scenario, it can be done easily, but I want pass along a copy of the original that hung in our family home for 78 years and more. Any suggestions as to who might have an answer? Thank you.
