Why you'll be happy you signed up...
Most people we talk to feel that they cannot put a monetary value on the photos they possess. Your photos represent your life story and in many cases, your family history and legacy. Organizing them, preserving them, and sharing them is one of the most valuable gifts you can give to yourself and your family.
Plus, it will always be easy to take a quiet moment — from time to time — to relive amazing family memories by flipping through the photos of your life.
Signing up – and taking this first simple step — will make you feel more empowered and confident to take on your photo organizing challenge. You’ll see how others have tackled the process and learn ways to move forward–by yourself or with the help of a Photo Manager to complete the project. And you will be on your way to having your most important photos at your fingertips to make super thoughtful gifts, create themed albums, and share memories with friends and family.
