Photo Freedom Giveaway.

Hi Ali!
My biggest photo struggle is knowing how much to crop or cut out when I plan for layouts. I have this tendency to keep as much detail possible in the photo and try to squeeze all of them into a layout...I'm getting better at it but my old ways always seem to creep back in. :)
Ciao Bella,

One of my struggles....
How to tackle the project of taking all the old photos out of unsafe albums.
Of course this is just one struggle...!

My Biggest Photo Struggle...finding the photo to best match the journaling - when I want to express my feelings about a person, situation, etc. More than just telling the story....

My biggest photo struggle is printing the photos I want to scrap as I love taking alot of photos.
Can't wait to see Stacey's book!

My biggest struggle? Finding the time to scrap them all!! LOL.
Love your blog, thanks for all the inspiration!

Getting them printed out so I can use them without having to print each one individually. When I used film I would take the full rolls to the hour photo in the grocery store and they would be ready to pick up as I was checking out! Loved having the stack of photos to look through as a reward for putting all the groceries away and getting dinner started. With everything on the computer I don't get to have them printed at the store anymore (don't print digital) and I haven't been that thrilled with the quality of the home printed versions -I mean, sure they work, but they aren't the same as the film photos.

My greatest struggle would have to be printing as I take my pics. I take a million photos it seems, but they never get printed. This year is the year I need to change this.... :)

My biggest photo struggle.... A very active 3 year old daughter, who no longer has an interest in posing for mummy!

My biggest problem with my pictures is being overwhelmed by so many, especially since I went Digital. I upload them to Costco and "try" to put the best on CD for backup before deleting them off the hard drive, but I'm way behind...help, Stacey!

I adopted a little boy from Kyrgyzstan last year... biggest struggle... figuring out which in all of the photos of my personal history, family history and his exploding little life are ones to keep in a system he and others can access easily... I want the stories of our lives to live beyond our lifetime for the family that will be... which photos are needed for the story???

My biggest photo struggle is that I don't have a working solution for storage. I have *some* boxes and *some* big 5-up photo binders, but they're pretty much full of stuff that I never really imagine I will scrapbook with, but I don't want to throw them away. (Really only with the ones taken BEFORE I went digital, since I can just print as I want now.) Also, I am having trouble TAKING better photos now. I am saving my pennies for an SLR and a photog class. I feel like my good shots are pretty much lucky and kinda few and far between.

WOW! This book would be great. I have thousands and thousand of photos on my computer and in boxes and I am just a little unsure of what to do with them. I feel like they are just getting lost in all the new photos. I guess this is one book I need to go pick up!
Thanks

Organization is my biggest problem. I can see a picture in my head but I have no idea where it is located. Also, since going digital I take so many more pictures and I find myself wanting to keep all of them!

I wish I had more clean shots of my kids...without deistracting background clutter, bad color etc. My family is what I take pictures of most, and the images are extreemly amature.
On the bright side...I have anew external ahrd drive + plans to dowload AseeDsee and get organized. Pretty intimidating task, so I have been procrastinating BIG TIME!

My biggest photo struggle.... figuring out and printing odd photo sizes... Ilove to use them in my layouts but this requires a bit of preplanning and then if I find I want to do something different I've already printed out the picture and don't want to waste more ink to reprint.

Ok so my photo struggle - I wish I had a better camera or know how to get more out of my existing camera. I love taking photos and just want to improve the quality. Cheers and hope you are enjoying the new year. Jane Sydney Australia!

could this really help me organize my rubbermaid bin of photos? they are not in ANY order or envelopes or anything! help! I am willing to try anything. I just don't know where to start.

I'd have to say finding the time to edit them in Photoshop and print them out. It's great to have so much control...but I just need to learn to USE all this great control!

Printing only what I need to scrap and scrapping the ones I print. Sometimes I print two or three sets of the same pictures and others I go to scrapbook only to realize I never printed them. In short--I need a better organization system. Plus, once I finish this L.O.A.d. challenge, I'll have most of my pics from the last two years scrapped, so it would be a good time to get organized.

My biggest struggle is storing my photos (both printed digital photos and ones on my computer) and trying to narrow which ones I scrapbook! I am going to try to pre-order this book, but that would be great if I won it from you!! Thanks, Ali!!
