Photo Freedom Giveaway.

In the last couple years, it's become really hard for me to take pictures of anything other than my daughter! I never remember to snap the everyday or artsy pictures, or even pictures of myself and my husband. All my boxes of photos are filled with pictures of DD.

My biggest struggle would have to be....actually getting started scrapping and using the photos I have. I seem to have a fear of commitment in putting pages together. I think it is because of my fear that a more perfect paper, embelishment, etc. will come out that would have been perfect versus the one that I used. Crazy, I know. I seem to have accumilated a stock pile of photos and product waiting for me to commit. (By the way my word for the year is COMMIT.)

Hello Ali - Taking pictures of myself, that's my biggest challenge. Taking your "Week in the Life" in Nashville was great, but since then, not too many pictures of myself.
Thank you!

OMG, Ali! Am I a little late? ha.ha. My biggest struggle is taking the time to figure out how to use the equipment we own! I also get overwhelmed about how much scrapbooking I need to do to get "caught up" and then it doesn't get done. I'd rather be reading y'alls blogs! ha.ha.

Hey Ali!
My biggest photo struggle is leaving all my pics on my computer and not backing them up. I am afraid someday I will wake up and they will all be gone, but I just don't know the best way to do this.... print, cd's, external hard drive.....

My photo struggle is dealing with all of the old photos from my childhood and heritage photos that I don't want to adhere anywhere.

Hmmm, let's see: do I print out the pictures on my computer? do I scan the pre-digital photos onto my computer? What do I do if I do print them out and after scanning them? I have pictures going nowhere...

Hey!!! Biggest photo challenge is keeping up with three teenage boys and their sports! The amount of blurry pictures I get are too numerous to count. If only they would slow down!!!!!

Biggest photo struggle -- getting them off of my frazzled EHD and onto DVDs. UGH! Thanks for the giveaway!

This book looks so helpful!! I've been thinking of taking the LofM class.
My biggest photo struggle getting them organized. Since I went digital in May 2006 my photos are not very organized. It's really frustrating b/c I am scared that I'll lose some somewhere and not remember the story that goes with them.

I love free stuff! But this is like getting my life back from being burried under all those photos. Just like all of us out there, a couple of external hard drives, a safe full of CD copies, and boxes of mixed up photos from 1940's to present and several media cards later, where do I begin?

Biggest photo struggle? Low light and night outside photos - always too dark even with my new SLR Canon Rebel guess I need some classes : )

My biggest struggle (other than being the one picked in a contest) is finding time! How do you overcome "guilt" of not spending time with family? I can't stay up after they go to bed because I have to get up at 5:30!

Right now my biggest struggle is taking pictures! I have 2 little boys and it seems like we are so busy dealing with them at birthday parties that I don't have the time or desire to get the camera out. I didn't take not 1 picture at my niece's 10th birthday last week! I must do better!

oh ali- i so need that book-- my pics are half printed and in boxes i bought from michaels and the other half still saved on my computer-
my husband bought this great new camera for himself- but now every picture he takes is great and it is sooo hard to choose--
example: he took 2000 photos in disney in december! yikes!

I think my biggest challenge is that I really need a new GOOD camera. Other than that, working with shadows and such can be frustrating at times!

I really enjoy you Ali....you so totally rock!
Smiles to you sweets!

Hi Ali! You are so talented; & I love your work! My struggles, are having pic's on the computer (Which are organized in folders, by Yr; then by each month.) & trying to figure out what sizes I want to print(8x8)(5x7)etc. I'll see a cool layout, & then need some pics (4x6) for family &/or other uses. Then time passes,I forget, & there's all these duplicates. Its like this vicious cycle!!! It's very overwhelming!!! (And then there's the pics in boxes...) UUGGHH!!! PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks Dawn! :)

My biggest photo struggle right now is that I have a ton from over the past 10 years and no organization to them at all. The worse of it now is that my two year old loves to "look" at the pictures by dumping the box of them all over the craft room floor. I need to separate them into a box for her (photos I have already scrapped), a box of pics to scrap still, and then a box of misc. Having the time to do that has eluded me so far!

Photos of me - that's my biggest problem - I am always taking the photos and never in them, or if I am in them I just hate the photo and refuse to scrap it. I have to get over this, but for now that is my biggest problem...
