Every September, people around the world celebrate Save Your Photos Month, an annual initiative created by The Photo Managers to encourage families to preserve their photographs, videos, documents, and the stories that bring them to life. Save Your Photos Month is about more than preserving photographs—it's about preserving the stories, relationships, and moments that define our lives.

Sorting old family photos can feel like standing at the edge of something vast. A simple two-step approach to sorting family photos can transform overwhelm into intention. The first step is broad and structural. The second is objective and values-based. Together, they allow you to build a cohesive family photo archive that tells your story, not just stores your images.
