Photos And What to Do With Them 

August 20th, 2008

Organize your photos for easy access while you can still remember that summer vacation!I am often asked what I do with photos that I have taken. How do I organize them, how do I get them developed? There are so many choices today. Here is one resource I just came upon scandigital.com It looks like a great system for those who want to send their photos, albums, slides, negatives and home movies to be digitized. They scan and digitize them so they can be preserved and enjoyed forever.

I have slides from my wedding eons ago and I am going to check out scandigital. Their web site is very easy to navigate through and looks pretty self explanatory. They were referred to me by a friend.

Kudos to Costco Photo Center. I love being able to sit in my own home, and look at photos I have taken, crop, add borders and do other things with them and then just email my photos in to be processed. In one hour I can pick them up. Or I could chose for them to mail them to me. There are a lot of places to go that have this same type of service, but I use Costco because they are fast, friendly, and efficient. I ordered 12 photos yesterday and they had them ready for pick up in 30 minutes. Once I had over 800 photos and they said it would take two days and they still had my photos ready in four hours.

When I organize for women I find that time management is a huge factor in them getting to the boxes and boxes of photos they have saved for years waiting to be put in albums. One idea is to hire some teenagers at $5.00 an hour to put the photos into scrapbooks after you personally sorted through them. Furnish them with the paper and whatever embellishments you want in your book.

Here's What They Say...

"I recently used Marilyn's services after moving into a new home and realizing we really needed to downsize and organize our belongings. It was a huge undertaking and without Marilyn's help,  I wouldn't have had the motivation to do it.
I can unreservedly recommend Marilyn Bohn to you for any organization needs you may have."
