Photo Freedom 2021

I first began scrapping in elementary school, putting memorabilia in the scrapbook my Mama started when I was born. Throughout my teenage and young adult years, I compiled a variety of photo albums, scrapbooks ... and even photo album scrapbooks!

In 2010, I discovered Stacy Julian's online classes and embraced her Library of Memories system. I began using a digital workflow plan, started sharing my photos, stories, and layouts on this blog, and changed from chronological to inspirational scrapbooking. I put processes in place to keep my printed and digital photos organized, to showcase my completed scrapbook layouts, and to capture memories and inspiration for future pages. 

Since that class, I've adapted Stacy's system to fit our family and lifestyle, and I've created a ton of FUN and meaningful pages, albums, and projects that I love! I also helped coach others to set up and adapt their own system in a couple of Stacy's workshops several years ago. I truly enjoyed sharing Stacy's big picture approach to preserving memories and seeing others embrace (or re-embrace) memory keeping in all its many forms during these classes.

I'm excited to announce that I get to do it all again! Yes, that's right, Stacy Julian has updated and revised the materials for setting up, maintaining, and enjoying your own Library of Memories, and is offering the PHOTO FREEDOM class on her website in early 2021!

I am so glad to have a hobby that allows me to preserve our memories in a way that is also an outlet for my creativity, and I'm excited to be a part of the new PHOTO FREEDOM class.
