How can I stop iphone 13 pro max from automatically deleting videos and photos?

Hi, I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max and am using a 16" MacBook Pro M1 Max. I'm downloading some video and photos by lightning cable into Image Capture. After the download, the video & photo's are automatically being deleted from my iPhone. How can I stop them from automatically deleting? I only want to manually delete them. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks, Ray

From the Image Capture window, click the circle with the 3 dots and from the menu that appears, be sure that Delete after import is not selected.
