Photographs are so special. They remind us of special people, places, and events in our lives. But pictures can get overwhelming, especially in this age of digital cameras when we take multiple shots to get the perfect picture.
Purging and organizing our photos (printed and digital) is just as important as decluttering and organizing our homes. I have hosted 2 photo purging challenges here on the blog, and each series is filled with tips to help you be able to find, enjoy, and share your special photos more.
