Four Goals for Organizing Photos
Did you know that when I’m not working at Chaos to Memories, I love running ultramarathons? I’ve completed almost 100 marathons, many 100-milers, and I even complete a 360-mile run in 2023.
I think organizing photos and running ultramarathons have a lot in common:
- They’re both big goals
- You need a plan for success
- Clear goals keep you motivated
With that in mind, we have four goals for organizing photos we keep in mind with every project:
Sorted
Imagine all your photos are in one place, the duds and duplicates are deleted, and everything is sorted chronologically. It doesn’t matter if your photos were taken by different people, with different cameras, and in different formats. All your family memories can be sorted in one place!
Searchable
Gathering and sorting are essential steps, but being able to search your memories is even more incredible. Imagine using your computer, phone, smart TV, or web browser to search your Family Photo Archive by date, person, place, or event.
Shareable
If your family photos are sorted and searchable, then it’s easy to share them. Whether you want to make beautiful photos books or just text photos on birthdays, being able to easily find and share special memories is a powerful way to connect with people you love.
Secure
Having all your family photos sorted, searchable, and shareable is a wonderful feeling, but you need to protect all that hard work with a good backup strategy. Your memories are at risk from natural disasters, human mistakes, and technical failures, so we can help you create a backup plan to keep your memories safe for generations.
Keep these four goals for organizing photos in mind to keep you motived on a big photo project. If we can help create your Family Photo Archive please reach out!
