The theme for our final week of Save Your Photos Month is Using Photos and Videos to Create Joy.
There are several ways to relive your cherished moments in unique and captivating ways. Here are a couple ideas to help you bring your photos to life.
- Create a captivating photo slideshow
Use video editing software or online tools to arrange them in sequence, add titles, transitions, and music. Celebrate a milestone event – be it a birthday bash, graduation, or family reunion. Share this magical journey with your loved ones near and far. Gather your photos, unleash your creativity, and watch as your memories come alive before your eyes. - Invite family and friends to view your memories from their own devices
Thanks to technology, there are now many ways to share your memories with family, friends and even designated groups of people. Digitized photos, videos, letters and other memorabilia, and so much more – can be shared and viewed via various software programs and applications. Services such as Mylio, Forever, SmugMug, and Permanent are some of the great options for organizing and backing up your collection, but also have a “share” feature so others can view your collection.
You can now also share your archive if you use an app (application) program like Google or Amazon Photos. And there is also a new streaming-like app called Projector which is like having your own Netflix channel that works with smart TVs and other devices like Roku and Firestick. Some of these offer a free version or trial, usually for a small number of images. Others are available for a low monthly cost or yearly subscription models. Be sure to fully research them first as they all have different features, options, privacy policies, and downloading or backup terms and conditions.
