If you cancel Amazon Prime, your photos will remain untouched in your Amazon Photos account. Prime members enjoy unlimited full-resolution photo storage, but once you cancel, you'll be downgraded to the 5GB free storage plan. If your stored photos exceed 5GB, you won't lose your photos, but you'll need to either delete excess files or upgrade your storage plan to regain uploading ability. Monitor your usage to avoid surprises and ensure your most important memories are secure.
