Declutter Your Photo Life: Curating, Preserving, Organizing, and Sharing Your Photos

Turn your photo chaos into precious memories to be enjoyed and shared!

Now more than ever, we hold our photo collections dear. They are often some of our most prized possessions. Wouldn't it be great to finally have all your photos organized, safe, accessible, findable, and shareable? With Declutter Your Photo Life by your side, you have just what you need to achieve photo bliss.

Photographers and family historians understand the immense power that photographs have to convey meaning, emotion, and memory. We cherish both old film photos that were handed down by previous generations and our latest digital photos captured on the newest smartphone. But when those priceless memories are unorganized and scattered every which way—on a smartphone, on a laptop, on memory cards and flash drives, on two or three photo sharing websites, in photo albums, and in shoeboxes in the attic—the dominant feeling quickly goes from "overjoyed" to "overwhelmed." What a mess!

Whether you're a professional photographer, a casual shooter, or the designated family historian, Declutter Your Photo Life will help you organize and enjoy your photos once again, as well as create cherished keepsakes for friends and family. In this book, professional photo organizer, photographer, and author Adam Pratt teaches you his straightforward step-by-step workflow that will have you taking complete control and creating a calming order out of your photo chaos. And once you've mastered Adam's system—Gather, Preserve, Organize, Share, Maintain—you'll have all the tools you need to keep your photo treasure organized as you move forward.
