I LOVE pictures!!! I love capturing all the major events in my families lives and I love capturing the little moments of life, basically I always have my camera and yes, my kids are used to me taking a million pictures and begging them to smile! After I take these million pictures my favorite thing to do with them is scrapbook, digital scrapbook. Both Emily and I got into digital scrapbooking almost 4 years ago. We both love being able to create pages without making the mess, so digital was perfect for us both. When I first got my digital camera and got into digital scrapbooking I knew I needed a better system on how to organize my pictures. I remember searching for how others organize their pictures, but nothing really was working for my brain. Finally I came up with the best way for me to keep my pictures organized. Here is how I do it.
1. I have a folder called CAMMIE’S PICTURES:
2. In that folder I have a folder for each YEAR:
3. In each year I have a folder for each MONTH:
4. In each monthly folder I have folders for the EVENTS of that month:
5. Then of course the actual pictures are in the corresponding event folder:
This simple way totally works for me for several reasons, one being that I remember when things happen by date so it’s easy for me to find a picture I am looking for. Another reason this works for me is when I scrapbook the events are in their own folder and ready to be put in a cute layout. Of course there are so many ways to organize digital pictures but I thought I might share my way in hope it may help someone!
Good luck organizing! - Cammie
