    Re: How many photos do you take? How many do you print?

    We have ours in folders named by reverse date then the subject, then they all organise into the correct date order. eg:
    2013 03 19 e's birthday
    2013 03 31 easter
    2013 04 trip to coast
    etc etc
    I also have a "various" folder and a folder for each of the kids for each year (with sub folders for each month) to put in those few snaps that don't fit into another folder.

    Re: How many photos do you take? How many do you print?

    I take heaps and heaps of photos, I'm too nervous to count.

    We store ours similar to Peanutter. Folder for year, than month. There are also separate folders for special events though, so Birthday's, Christenings, Holiday, so that I don't have to go searching through that month just for those big events.

    I don't print a lot of my photos, one or two for scrapbooking and that's about it. Some of the special ones make it into a frame here or there, but not many.

    Everything is stored onto a 1 or is it 2 TB external hard drive, and then that is backed up onto a second hard drive. I'm still trying to convince myself that I don't really need to back up the back up, but I do tend to kill hard drives both internal and external with my eyes closed. The idea then is to store one off site in case of fire/flood, the issue being with that I have to remember to grab it to update it.
