Inheriting a box (or bushel) of pictures is a big responsibility. Two things happen:
- First, you panic and wonder how am I going to have enough time to organize these pictures?
- Then, you experience the great joy from knowing that you’ve been trusted to pass on this heirloom treasure to the next generation.
Don’t Lose the Past
It would be easy to toss a family photo. You have so many, right? You think, “I don’t need this photo.” But you do. All those photos add up to tell the story of your family. By saving them, you are saving the past for the future. All your photos anchor children to family history and lead them on a path of self-discovery and well-being.Save the Story
That’s where my Online Essential Photo Organizing course comes in. This online 7 installment course breaks down the process of preserving and organizing photos into short lessons so you can follow-along as you work with your pictures. You’ll learn how to spot historic photo formats, how to store different types of pictures, how to label them and how to scan them. That’s not all. I’ll show you how to develop a workflow for scanning, filing and retrieving your images. The online course explains the how-to and includes some downloadable extras. If you have a question, it’s easy to send me a message in the course.Online Course (Unlimited Use)
