Organized Photo Memories

Begin with the end in mind…

So, you’re ready to begin getting your photos and other memorabilia organized and
preserved but aren’t sure where to start. Now is the time to ask yourself a few questions
and evaluate what your ultimate goals are:

- Why do you want to do this project now?

- Who are you doing this for? Do you want your collection to be passed down in your family? Is this a legacy project or simply a personal one?

- What would you like the completed collection to consist of? Print and digital image organization? A digital-only collection? Print media converted to digital? Audio and video media transferred to new formats? Physical items to be documented and safely stored? Maybe photo books, albums, or prints?

- By when? Is there a timeline or deadline you have to get your collection organized? Do you have a plan for who will be responsible for maintaining the
collection - now? In the future?

- If you could wave a magic wand and your collection was completely organized and preserved, what would you want to see?

Once you have a clear idea as to WHAT your goals are, you are ready to create a plan to
get started.

Do you know how to ensure your photos are backed up and safe?
Follow the 3-2-1 Backup strategy for peace of mind.

THREE copies,
TWO different media types (eg external hard drive, computer hard drive, cloud service) AND
ONE offsite or in the cloud.

Do this to ensure your photos are safe from catastrophic events or system failures.

Can you imagine the untamable mess of photos if you don't go through and organize them periodically?
Set aside a day every week or month to go through and get rid of all the unwanted screenshots, blurry photos, doubles etc. You don’t want your precious memories lost amongst these duds do you?

I go through my photos at the end of every month making sorting through the photos more manageable.
