  1. Judy Webster

    This e-book (like Nancy’s other guide) has been immensely useful. The practical advice it contains has made a huge difference to the way I handle my family photos. Highly recommended!

  2. Debbie Hilliard

    I have read many articles and books about organizing digital photos but none came close to being as easily explained and understood. I have begun re-scanning hundreds of photos in TIFF format, re-thinking filenames so they are searchable and using metadata. I really appreciate the information regarding using metadata – a term I have heard many times but didn’t know how to implement. I have Photos on Mac which allows good organization and description fields but considering Photo Elements after reading about the software. I also purchased Sassy Jane’s Organizing Genealogical Research Using Archival Principles which has helped me with all my digital files including photographs. I highly recommend these eBooks.

    You simply will not find a better, more easy-to-read explanation for cataloging your photo collection. I am in the process of following her advice and my photos have never been more organized than they are now becoming. Thanks, Nancy!

  4. Nancy Loe

    R.C. from San Diego writes, “In the next months, I’ll continue to work on developing an index for the photos. But, the important thing is the photos have been shared with family, for all to enjoy, and for the photos not to be hoarded in someone’s forgotten closet. Thank you, Sassy Jane.”

  5. Nancy Loe

    Sally writes, “[After] my Grandma died, I was able to gather a large collection of her pictures and started scanning. Eleven months later, I scanned over 1,500 photos, negatives, slides, documents as TIFFs, backed them up on 2 separate external hard drives, then did a batch conversion to change the TIFFs to JPGs. Two weeks ago, I created DVDs with the JPGs, and then mailed those off to the interested family members (and even those that weren’t so interested!) Thanks!”

  6. Nancy Loe

    J.M. writes, “At the start of 2010 I had purchased an Epson photo scanner hoping to use it in my family business (home and office organizing, downsizing, etc). I would have scanned everything in JPG, but I attended your seminar and you described how TIFF was superior.”
