You have thousands of photos. They are on your phone, on an old laptop, on a hard drive you have not plugged in since 2018, and in a shoebox in the closet. Some are duplicates. Some are blurry. Too many of them are of the same sunset. Somewhere in all of that is that one amazing photo of your grandmother, your kids’ first day of school, or a trip you never want to forget.
Essential Organizing offers professional photo organizing services for physical and digital collections, led by Wendell Santos. Wendell is a member of The Photo Managers, has a master’s degree in information management, and loves photography. Whether you have boxes of inherited prints or a sprawling digital photo collection, or both, Wendell can help you bring your photos together into a system that is easier to find, enjoy, and share.
What Does a Photo Organizer Do?
A photo organizer helps you enjoy the memories that matter to you by creating a photo collection that you can use. Wendell begins with an assessment meeting to understand your goals and how you want to interact with your photos. From there, Wendell works with you to create one organized photo collection — physical, digital, or both — that fits your life. His photo organizing services can include:
-
Sorting and organizing printed photos and albums in a structure that makes sense to you, whether by year, family member, milestone, or another way.
-
Creating labeled, archival-quality storage solutions for physical photos so you can find what you are looking for and keep originals protected.
-
Scanning heirloom photos to create digital copies that are easier to share and preserve.
-
Combining digital photos into one library that are currently stored on phones, computers, hard drives, social accounts and cloud services.
-
Removing duplicates, near-duplicates and blurry images so your collection contains the photos you want to keep.
-
Adding dates, names, events, and other metadata to make photos easier to search.
-
Setting up a folder or album structure and backup plan so your collection is accessible and protected over time.
-
Creating photo books or photo gallery walls with Emily once your collection is organized.
A photo organizer helps you turn a collection of photos into a collection you can use.
Maybe you want to unearth family photos that now live in boxes and closets. Or search for a particular year, person, or event without scrolling through thousands of files. Or maybe you just want to make sure your photos are stored and backed up for the future.
Wendell will help you decide what you want to keep, where it should live, and how you want to find it later. You stay involved in the decisions that matter, while he creates the structure, handles the details, and helps you build a personalized system.
