I Just Finished a Photo Shoot For My Client - Now What?
Congratulations on completing your photo shoot! Now, it’s crucial to protect those images by backing them up!

Why Would I Want To Back Up My Images?
As you transition from a hobbyist to a pro photographer, it’s important to keep your photos safe! Remember, these photos are timeless memories for your clients.

Why Can't I Just Use My Phone To Store My Images?

Phones aren't always reliable! They can malfunction, break, get lost, run out of space, and sometimes files just vanish. We encourage you to always back up your photos to avoid losing them in unexpected ways!

What Should I Use To Back Up My Images?

Cloud storage is an excellent way to preserve your images. Think of it as a virtual locker that you can easily access on any device with an internet connection!

Any Cloud Storage Recommendations?
When you choose a cloud service, you’ll get a certain amount of free storage, with the option to add more space for a fee. A few popular cloud storage choices among photographers include:

  • Google Drive - free for up to 15 GB of storage

  • Apple iCloud - free for up to 5 GB of storage

  • Dropbox - free for up to 2 GB of storage
