Plan Before You Scan
Who doesn't love capturing memories through photos? They serve as vivid reminders of where we’ve been, the experiences we've shared, and moments long past. However, having countless boxes, bags, and albums filled with print photos can quickly become overwhelming, especially if they’re not well-organized. Whether you’re planning a move or have inherited a collection of photos and media you haven’t even sorted through, it can feel like a heavy burden.
I get it—sending everything off to a big scanning company might seem like the easiest solution. But trust me, that's not the right move! Without organizing your photos first, you’re doubling the chaos, wasting both time and money, and creating a digital mess. While no one wants to inherit a jumbled mess of printed photos, they certainly don’t want to inherit digital disarray either. Future generations will value a well-organized, cohesive story—not a chaotic collection.
