Hi, I’m Mary Moseley, co-founder of Be Photo Wise. I’m visiting Melissa’s blog today to tell you about a new online digital photo organization workshop that I’m teaching along with my co-founder at Be Photo Wise, Jackie Lyals.

Digital Photo Boot Camp is an online workshop that we created to teach you a system for creating an organized digital photo library and backing that photo library up. We believe that our system is going to immediately help your digital workflow. Once you get the system down, you’ll be able to find that one photo fast plus have peace of mind that they are safely archived for future generations.

Recently, we asked members of our community what their single biggest  challenge is when it comes to managing their digital photos.

The most common responses were:

• the overwhelming amount of pictures
• locating a specific photo
• getting all digital photos in one place
• changing technology
• how to eliminate duplicate photos
• proper back up
• creating a system and sticking to it

One gal said "I am so frustrated by the possibility of devoting time to establishing a system that will then become obsolete because the tools used become unsupported by the developer...or free services transition to paid services...or the company goes out of business all together! I want something that I fully control that will work for the long haul!"
