Digital Photo Organization

If you are ready to get your digital photos under control, I recommend the Digital Photo Collection Boot Camp Package
(includes 5 hours of instruction over 2 sessions -- $375 plus tax)

At our first session, I will help you:
​1.  Purchase and install Historian ($80 for software if you do not already have it).
2.  Gather photos from computer, cameras, phones, CDs, memory cards, flash drives and online accounts. 
3.  Set up your phone and/or iPad to sync to Forever account.
4.  Set up categories and tags in Historian and begin sorting photos.
5.  Create "Photos to print", "Photos to share" and "Photos to Historian" folders on desktop.
6.  Connect an external hard drive (EHD) and set up a shadow copy of the organizing completed.

Homework for before our second session:
1.  Continue deleting and sorting photos in Historian.
2.  Gather any remaining photo sources to add to your collection.
3.   Finish importing photos into Historian.  Each photo that comes into your life goes into the "Photos to Historian" folder on your desktop or directly into Historian.

Session Two (scheduled no more than one month later)
1.  Learn to work with photos in your online Forever account.
2.  Review sorting and editing photos process in Historian.
3.  Learn how to maintain your photo collection each month using the Digital Photo Bootcamp Checklist.
4.  Answer your questions and connect EHD to update back up. 

Ongoing Maintenance     
  • At the beginning of each month, use Digital Photo Bootcamp Checklist to add photos and maintain your collection.   
  • I want you to be successful, so I will email you each month to remind you to maintain your collection!
  • OR, I can maintain your collection for you with my Quarterly Maintenance Package for $300 a quarter. This includes my monthly remote maintenance of your Forever account and an in person appointment of up to two hours scheduled at the end of the quarter.  During that time I will add new photos to your Historian account, answer your questions, and confirm that your back up is working correctly.
