Photo Freedom Giveaway.

My biggest photo struggle - getting really good pictures of both kids smiling and happy at the same time. I'm too anal that it has to be a posed picture, and not just a general, happy one!

My 2 biggest problems are deciding what is the best shot to take and arranging them for storage on the computer/CD.

Just too many photos and I did not start organizing until 5 years after my kids were born...I'm getting there!

Biggest Photo Struggle: joining the 21st century photo technology. I still use a film point and shoot camera (cheap) - and when that doesn't work, I use a disposable camera. So I don't get the beautiful shots so many others are able to get. I am avoiding the move to a more "complex" camera - I don't always understand the instructions in the instruction manual - filled with terminology I don't understand, so I am reluctant to try something new.
Thanks,

my biggest struggle would be deciding of the many photos I take,which photos tell the story and which ones I can get rid of, and getting rid of them.

My biggest photo-struggle... I have many! I want them organized, I want them printed, I want them scrapbooked, I want them to be good. Also, the shots never turn out as good as I want them to be, as I picture them in my head...

I am having the.hardest.time figuring out the focus on my new 50mm lens. Sometimes it is dead on and others the whole shot is completely blurry and out of focus. Very Very Frustrating. But I'll keep at it!

My biggest struggle is backing them up right after I download them. I lost too many pictures by not doing this. I am trying to get into a habit of not deleting them off the memory card until I have them backed up.

Hi Ali!
lots of photo boxes of unorganized photos. lots of photos still on computer because if I print them out they will just sit in unorganized photo boxes. pick me please ;)

My biggest photo struggle:
I print out my fav digi pics at Costco, the ones I want to use to 'tell a story' but I don't scrap as fast as I have photos printed, and I have tons, literally tons of printed digi photos laying around and not put anywhere or organized. They are taking over my scrap space...........help!

My biggest struggle is I have a ton of pictures, organized, but too many that I print out. When I go to scrapbook them I only do the have to's even though sometimes the other pictures are much better. Wendy

Ugh-- volume for sure. I take so many pictures, and then I have a hard time reconnecting with them when I get around to finally working with them.

I cannot seem to take good pictures inside at all. No matter where I take them they always look bad, either too dark, too light, etc. So then I struggle to scrapbook them because they aren't perfect and I feel like I should be spending time scrapbooking the perfect pictures.

Easy one. It is definately the stack of old photos that I printed with the intention of scrapping, but somehow I never get the inspiration to use them on a page. I really need this book.

My biggest struggle? Taking those *natural* shots. My pics either look posed, or I totally miss the expressions I'm going for. grrrr

My biggest problem with photos is overall organization especially for my older negatives and CD's. I can never seem to find them when I need them. When taking photos, my first place of opportunity when taking photos is lighting. I got a great external flash for Christmas and I still haven't figured it out!

My biggest issue?? WHERE TO START??? I have both film and digital pics that desperately need some sort of organization system so that I can scrap them. I really hate the way my EHD is beginning to look and think I have duplicates of lots of my digital pics. How in the world do you organize that?

Biggest struggle - getting them off my computer. That and getting my five year old to stand still long enough to take a photo in the first place!

My biggest struggle is knowing how much I shoot now, and I am a single gal w/ no kids. What am I going to do when I am married with children?? Sometimes I start freaking out when I think about it!

My biggest struggle, like so many of the other comments, is the the fact that my poor computer is drowning in photos. Because I have a hard time in deleting photos even if they aren't great ones, I don't find myself wanting to send all those ones away to be printed off. Then I end up not sending the good ones either. And now, with so many, the cost of printing all my pictures to actually put them into albums would be atrocious.
As far as taking pictures, my biggest struggle is finding the right light. I hate how my outdoor snow pictures turn blue and my indoor pictures turn a yellowish cast. There's something I'm missing.
