Hmmm...where do I even begin??? I would say my BIGGEST photo struggle is trying to capture a decent picture, and also organizing my photos.
LOVE your way of cropping of people's heads...I really should try that! =D

My biggest struggle with my photos is how to organize them and not taking enough photos. I am really bad about not wanting to drag out my camera so I only do it once in a while.

The types of mini-albums and everyday shots you ladies take now are so great and really "loosen things up." But for me, those are harder to take and scrap than chronological! With digital and my kids all being in their teens or early 20s now, I'm still working on their chronologicals-because that's what they have-but I long to incorporate some of the new "mood" pages to bring in more feeling to what I'm doing. And instead of making it more relaxed, it makes me slow down completely!

I would LOVE to win a copy of this book. It looks fabulous.
My biggest struggle right now is ... everyone thinks I take pretty good photos, but to me, I need to work on getting even better shots. Sometimes, the "simplest" shots turn out to the best ... instead of trying to "create" that perfect shot, just to let it happen is hard for me.
Thanks for the opportunity to win this book!

my biggest photo struggle is getting what i want into focus. especially since my 1st kiddo is starting to walk, it has been difficult figuring out how to capture those *moments* on camera while still enjoy watching it happen.

my biggest struggle is figuring out which ones to print and scrap or use for a project...the easy part is organizing them on the computer-i struggle after that:)

My biggest photo challenge is sharing them with family and friends without making someone feel left out! I try to be nice sharing them with everyone but then there is always someone that whines and says "how come there were only 4 pictures of me with my granddaughter...blah blah blah..." It's like I need a checklist or something to make sure there are equal pictures of everyone!!!

I have always had a passion to take pictures. So 2008 I bought a good camera and several books on taking and using my new camera. So, since I have always had issue on how to keep my picutres in the past, I am sure that this will be the next problem. As I am planning on take many pictures in 2008. I would also like to tell you have inspired me to look at life as art. Thanks!

My biggest struggle is definetly how to organize them - by theme? by month? by kid? too many choices!

My biggest struggle is being able to put my hands on a photo I know I've taken, when I need it. I don't have an easy system in place.

I think mine is that I want to scrapbook both ways - chronologically AND not-so-chronologically. With the latter, I get to tell lots of neat stories. But I also like the idea of a record of our days and months - it's fun to pull down the scrapbook and remember specific vacations and Christmases and birthdays. I want my albums to be both!

My biggest problem is printing them. I live in a remote area and only have access to a dial up internet connection. So to up load photos to have them printed by an on line company is a painfully long process. The best solution is to actually take a CD or my SD card to a place where I can print in an hour. Of course, that requires time too...

My biggest struggle is figuring out what to do with all the photos I have developed. I scrap some of them, some I give away and then I am not sure what to do with all the rest. I have a huge pile sitting on my desk right now from last year. :-)

Digital prints... I need to have them printed in batches, rather than project by project. It takes a bit of time to download them all to the site, then crop, and choose qtys, etc. Not to mention the pre-edit work before you download! I am good about deleting, and sorting them, but since I've gone digital w/my D80, I don't have many pics from 2007!!! Just need to carve more time for this particular area/project...Like once a quarter?

OMGosh, seeing 630+ comments before me is a bit intimidating, but I HAVE to try for this one! :) I added it to my Kaboodle the second I heard about it.
My biggest struggle with photos is selecting which photos to scrap and accepting that not all of them will (or need) to be in my albums. Often times I get so hung up on what story to tell and picking the perfect photos, that I end up telling fewer of those stories. My scrapping goal this year is simply, "forward progress" and I really think Stacy's book would be an immense help! Thanks for the chance at the giveaway, Ali! :)

Feeling confident in using my SLR. I did really well in the beginning and now I just don't take as many pictures in the MN winter.

My biggest photo struggle is that I have too many photos before we went digital. I am doing more digital layouts now and I'm struggling with taking the time to scan the old images. I find it much easier and quicker to work with the digital photos.

My biggest struggle? Getting them printed. Scrapping was SO much easier with 35mm since I actually had the photos in my hands. Although I must admit, since going digital, the photos themselves are much, much improved.

My biggest struggle is taking the photos themselves. I am such an amateur - less than one. Red eye - huge problem, even when I have the red-eye mode on. And if I try to fix it on the pc, my kiddies' eyes turn yellow. I need help! What do you suggest???

Biggest photo struggle by far is organization, both printed photos and digital organization. Help!
