08 May A Mother’s Day Challenge
As I was planning this blog post, I went looking through photos from my own childhood. I found less than a dozen photos of my mum and myself together, and I was either a tiny baby or a sullen teen (sorry mum). The first nice one was from my wedding in 2007. I know I am giving away my age here but statistically speaking that is only 0.33 photos per year over 33 years! Not only is that shockingly low it makes me so sad and regretful.02 Nov 6 benefits of having your photo life organised
Who has experienced this before? How frustrating is it? Of course by the time you have deleted some photos to make room for more, the moment you were trying to capture has passed. As you know we live by the motto - organise ~ utilise ~ enjoy and today we are exploring some of the benefits of having your photo life organised.
07 Sep What would happen to your photos if you died?
No one likes to think about death but you know the saying ..."in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes" - Benjamin Franklin
With that certainty in mind, those of us who want to ensure handling our estate after we die is as simple as possible for our loved ones take measures to prepare and plan. We make wills and possibly financial plans for our funerals. But what about your photos?
21 Jul Your precious memories organised, utilised, enjoyed
For those of you that visited The Office Space - Officeworks Blog to read our input on how to 'Unclutter and organised your workspace' you would be familiar with our 'organise > utilise > enjoy' theory. After last weeks Time Trial video we wanted to remind you of the benefits of organising your photos by applying the same 'organise > utilise > enjoy' theory to this post about photo organising.
20 May Imagine you died
Morbid thought isn’t it? Imagine you died. A large part of our business inspiration was to help people. In this case we want to help them avoid the heartache that disorganisation can cause in the case of an emergency or accident. I want to share a story with you. In September last year my friend Kristine lost her brother Jeff in a tragic paragliding accident. Today, with her permission and blessing I want to share the heart-breaking aftermath of such a tragedy.
12 Sep Do you know how many photos you take each year?
I’d like you to meet THE HARDIES - I tried to get my family tree in one image but I needed a magnified glass to see it.
My mum is one of 11 kids, she has 5 brothers and 5 sisters.
My grandmother passed on very early and when my pop passed on in 1975 he had eleven surviving children. Today he has 139 living descendants…can you imagine our family reunion?! No imagination required …you can check back in with me next year as I am actually organising (there is that word again) a big reunion in April 2014; wish me luck.
