We've all been there! We finally want to tackle that photo organising project, we're off to a good start and motivated and then we encounter the first roadblock which stops us in our tracks. Next thing we know: we are procrastinating and the project comes to a halt.  Here are some of the most common roadblocks we have encoutered: Not knowing where to start Too many photos and pictures everywhere Too many software options Deciding whether to scan photos vs negatives Which is the right scanning equipment? What to do after you have scanned photos - archive them in albums or boxes? Do I want my photos in books and in which order? Chronological or just done? Figuring out dates of undated photos Tell one person's story? Or integrate several chronologically? Time and place to work on a project without interruption We discuss solutions to all those roadblocks and also invite you to listen to episodes 49 and 106 that are all about how to stop procrastination (see links in related episodes below)!

Julie Diebolt Price and her husband Gordon spent much of their working years in Southern California, but longed for a change. They initially bought a cabin in Rhododendron, Oregon in the shadows of Mount Hood enjoying years of vacations there. Despite Julie's firm stance against Arizona, where she had visited her parents for three decades, fate led them to Goodyear. Surprisingly, they explored a model home in Tuscany Falls, a 50+ community, and ended up purchasing one in the very place Julie had sworn never to live … Arizona!

We are thrilled to have Caroline Guntur from The Swedish Organizer back as our special guest to talk about the approach author Margareta Magnusson describes in her book The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning. Caroline has recently written a blog post that drew our attention: Respectfully, This is the ONE Thing Swedish Death Cleaning Gets Completely Wrong. We could really relate to what she has written and wanted to hear and learn more about her take on The Swedish Death Cleaning approach. Whilst we of course talk about photos and memories, Caroline also gives us an overview and explanation where The Swedish Death Cleaning comes from and how ingrained it is in her culture. How it's about downsizing, minimising our footprint, consuming only what we need and pay it forward to others if we have too much. It is a long-term approach and philosophy rather than a once-off big decluttering and organising project, and this episode is definitely one not to be missed! Having said this, there is (as always) no wrong or right. However, approaching this method in a different order of operation - as Caroline suggests - makes sense to us and you also might be interested to learn more about it and to give it a go.  If you do need help for your photo management, we encourage you to check out Caroline's courses*. They are very thorough and well structured and come highly recommended.

Meet Libby from Momento in Sydney and discover how this Australian photo book printing company came into existence - as the second one in the world at the time - and how they are serving their clients in Australia and New Zealand today. Momento is so much more than a printing company. The three founders, of which Libby is one, came from the world of digital media in the mid 1990s and met when working for a CD-ROM company.  They loved photography, travel and also family memories. Because they couldn't find a printing company that suited their needs and fulfilled their printing quality requirements, they started their own business, offering exactly this! One of the main focus for them is accuracy in colour reproduction and quality at every level has been their defining feature. They even developed their own book designing software, which is accessible for free. Interestingly, one of Libby's first books was her dad's memoirs, bringing together decades of photos. We can't but agree when she shares how book creation is about story telling. We are also talking about different formats and sizes of books, and how to choose the right one. There are different paper options, too, and Libby explains which one is good depending on the purpose and kind of book. She also shares many more practical tips that start long before the book design … namely, when taking photographs!  One of her favourite ways to pass on family history is through recipe books, for which Momento has developed various templates if you don't want to create your own. She says: ‘Making a photo book is not just about you, it is also for those people in the future who won't be sitting beside you when they're looking through it, who get to learn about you and through learning about you, they learn about themselves.'  Momento offers something for every taste: whether you want to design minimalistic photo books with lots of white space or are a scrapbooker who likes frames, embellishments, background and other decorative features, they've got you covered. Libby encourages us to let the purpose of the book guide us and to turn a book from a record into a keepsake by adding stories. If you need more inspiration go to https://www.momento.com.au/inspiration and don't forget that they offer a special to our listeners with  25 % off your next Momento photo book (offer valid until 31 October 2023).

Create visual impact in your photos to attract an audience. We'll discuss why visual impact is important and three ways to add visual impact in your photos.

We'll go over how and why you need to plan your photos for visual impact. The post How to Create Visual Impact in Your Photos appeared first on William Beem Photography.

Learn how to use graphics with your photos. We'll cover how to compose your photos for graphics, how to make your text stand out, and which shapes and colors to use...and why!  Your photos should never need a graphic to help you tell your story. However, there are times when your photo needs to be part of an overall graphical composition to use for a specific purpose. It could be for a blog banner, an advertisement, business cards, handouts or social media headers. Not every photo is great for graphics, though. We'll describe what you need to consider when composing your photos and how that may vary for different formats or purposes for your graphics. Then we'll cover how to select text, colors and shapes to use for your graphics and how to choose them. Finally, we'll cover how to choose your fonts to serve different purposes. Then we tell you how to make them stand out so people see your message. The post How to Use Graphics with Your Photos appeared first on William Beem Photography.

Today’s episode will appeal to the young at heart and the old lady in all of us! Join hosts Graham and Kirsten as we talk frankly about some of the things we’ve “aged out of”, other things that we definitely haven’t, what we probably should age out of, and what we haven’t quite aged into. We may have been best friends since college, but we’re not the same women we were when we met in our teens. Today we’re chatting about how we’ve grown out of some of our old ways, what we’re still clinging to, and the old lady things we see (often excitedly!) coming on the horizon! Plus, Graham’s love of arthritis creams, Kirstens fear of frozen yogurt toppings, and what constitutes a classy scarf vs. a trashy scarf!

Well hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of the Real Estate Resource podcast my name is Jim Sipprell and this is the podcast is devoted to helping you in the buying or selling your next home. So today we are going to talk about staging your home. Everything about the process including saving money and selling your home faster. Home Staging what is it and why you need to understand. The difference between staging and decorating Types of Staging. Costs and Returns Does staging really work   The difference between staging and decorating Decorating. You spend years collecting things and filling your rooms with things that describe you. Your travels, your personality, you. Everything about decorating is bringing your likes into your home. Staging is the opposite which is taking everything out and creating a spacious neutral look. Open things up and create a look that fits the mass appeal.   A hotel type look. A livable space that showcases the room intended as what is was. DEPERSONALIZE   Types of Staging. First thing is cost right. The full stage as I call it. Thousands of dollars to bring in furniture and remove all the belongings to put in storage. Moving twice? Well this staging is generally used for homes that are dated or vacant. Bought a house relocated have already moved. People have a hard time visualizing a vacant home. You would think that it opens possibility but since 09 the perception is that the house is distressed. Foreclosed, needs to go fast, and in the end goes for less money as it attracts low ball offers   Partial Staging Pulling out items and using what you have. Utilizing minimal items like glass tables that give the appearance of openness. Bringing in neutral artwork to fill in where photos are. Flowers Candles Ambiance   Costs and Returns Staging can cost from several hundred to upwards of 10k depending on the size and value of the home. Average cost of a full stage run around 3-5k for a 3 month contract. Lot of money right. Well you will get it back. House will sell 79% faster than homes that are not staged. 73% less time on the market. Today’s Market your looking at 11 days or less vs 90 days. That’s three mortgage payments right there.   Does Staging really work? Yes, the stats are out there just google it. In the end it will sell faster for more money. If you are not in a position to spend the money. Use your own items but follow the principle of de cluttering. Your Photos will look better and we all know that most searches start online. Your first impression should be the best.

Capturing Real Moments in Your Photos with Camela Langendorf – 11-7-15 | Mind Body Spirit Living As we move closer to the holidays, we look forward to special time with family and friends that can create memories for years to come. We all hope to have photos that can help us to remember those times, but so often, we find that our photos don’t reflect the intimacy and uniqueness that we felt in the experience.  This week, we turn to an expert to learn how to capture real, authentic, memorable moments in our photos with a professional photographer….just in time for the holiday season. Camela Langendorf is owner of Images by Camela, a lifestyle photography company in Racine, Wisconsin.  She first became enamored with photography after spending a life-changing semester at the age of 19 in Australia and the South Pacific.  She loves exploring how photography allows her to blend art and science, to reach her goal of catching a glimpse of people connecting to each other or within themselves. Camela graduated from UW-Madison and Concordia University in physical therapy and worked for 12 years in the field. Her years as a PT were invaluable in teaching her about respecting all types of people, whatever their size, shape, color, background, intellect or belief. In helping people to heal and recover, she learned that we are all so much more the same than we are different. Her focus is on helping people appreciate and see how beautiful they really are.
