So, lots been going on around here but not so much on my page b/c I've been horrible about updating it! MANY apologies! I do have some exciting news for you though! I recently partnered with an organization who had a heart for preserving people's memories and they've made it easy for us to get it done!

They convert VHS, reel to reel, slides, scan photos and negatives! Imagine getting to enjoy and share all of those precious memories again!

Here's a link to a quick video if you'd like to check them out!

If I can help you with your memories please let me know! If you'd like to join me in helping others in reminiscing I'd love to have you on my team!

I've had lots of people asking me about the best way to backup your physical photo albums.

I recommend scanning your actual pages along with journaling and putting them on DVD or external hard drive. Then keep those backups in a DIFFERENT place than you have your albums, so that if you have a fire you don't lose your backup as well.

Listen. I hear you. You’re a few pounds heavier than you like (or a 100lbs heavier than you like). I completely understand how you feel. I get that same blah feeling about myself when I thin...

Here's just one example of why you need to have your photos stored in places other than an online storage site...they go out of business.

If you've spent any time on the Internet back in the early 2000's, you definitely ran into Webshots. It was the photo sharing service everyone used before Photobucket, before Flickr or Picasa, and before Facebook and Instagram.
