Photo Freedom Giveaway.

Oh, I'd love to have this book! Thank you very much for this giveaway. My biggest photo struggle is having the time to organize them and knowing the best methods to manage my photos digitally. I want to archive the photos in a way that will be as permanent as possible but I also love to have the whole year (or more) on my computer's hard drive so I can access them easily when I want to scrap.

oh my gosh where do i start.....
this is going to sound so silly - but getting my CAT to sit still while I photograph her.....I am single and have no kids so my cat is my ONE and ONLY SUBJECT!!!!!!!
oh my - reading this over makes me feel so sad.....I need a new subject - or a new life!!!!!!

forgetting what I have already printed out - and then printing them again - or enlarging them and then still getting them printed - i waste so much time and money doing this

Oh wow! My biggest struggle is printing them. I've tried just getting a ton printed from scrapbookpictures.com and then just working with the pictures but that doesn't always work for me. A lot of times I like to print out my own pictures using my computer/printer but then, the pictures don't come out as well...and organizing the pictures I've printed that's whole nother story.

My biggest struggle is getting up the nerve to venture away from auto mode on my Canon Rebel XT . Love this camera and all of it's possibilities. Just need time to learn to tap into them.

I take thousands of photos. I print none. I create mini albums, I plan even more mini albums, I have great intentions to scrapbook, yet I can't seem to choose and print my photos. I just get overwhelmed when I think about choosing the shots, sizing them, printing them . . . so overwhelmed I never get started.
On a side note -- not sure why, but all of the postings on your blog show up as a link to CKU. Is this some glitch on my computer? Even the comments people left showed up underlined and were linked to CKU. Very strange.

My biggest photo challenge? Getting in the photos! My husband has been working hard over the past year to improve his skills so I can actually appear in some of the photos. =)

I have two -- one, taking great photos of candid moments like I usually see on other pages because I'm always afraid people might think I'm too obsessed with taking too many photos! That, and I have a hard time approaching people if I can take their photos. I feel like I'm invading their personal space! ;)

I have a tough time keeping my digital pics organized! I lose track of what I've scrapped, what I haven't, what I've printed, and what I'd still like to print.

Hmmm... I think organization is my biggest problem - with photos and every other area of my life!

Honestly, my biggest photo challenge is not having my camera on me at the RIGHT times... seems I always have it for "specific planned events", but not readily available when those impromptu but awesome shot moments happen.
:) hope you are well Ali!

Hmmm... I think organization is my biggest problem - with photos and every other area of my life!

Remembering the stories and details from the photos ... and labeling either some or most of the photos with the names of people.

My biggest photo trouble is getting the right lighting. I'm photo obsessed and hope to be a photog when I grow up (aka when my kids have left the nest). But I still am a bit self conscious when it comes to good lighting.
Oh I hope I win!!!

Ooh! I saw that book yesterday and LOVED it!

OOOH so many....
SO many photos on the computer in such a random system. I'm sure I've lost some and then surprise I find something from forever ago! Printing what I download. Now it would take forever to actually print them and have prints to scrap! That's the beginning...I need this book.

My biggest challenge ... getting in more photos! I'm a bit too much of a control freak ... I need to relinquish some of the photographic duties to my hubby! :)

my struggle.....do I leave photos on the hard drive or copy them to 's or to a thumb drive, or maybe a 2nd hard drive? How do I make sure I don;t loose them? (even though all the best are printed!)

Getting my canon rebel out of auto or P mode. I need to take a class and understand the numbers and what to do....so I can truly shoot.

I need a camera with faster speed. As far as photos go........I struggle thinking how many I take and have to make sure to organize all of them and back them up frequently. I try not to let this go to the way side too much. Otherwise it gets overwelming to tackle. My advice to everyone is just KEEP up with the photos you do take. I back up all my photos to disk but this still makes me feel uneasy. I think it's all that talk that disk only last so long. It's so overwhelming! To think of having to keep up with all those photos and if one mistake.....one could loose all those precious memories.
