Welcome to Class!
Yippee!
I’m so HAPPY you’re here and that we are going to do this together. There is little in life that is more satisfying than spending time with your memories and I KNOW that my Library of Memories system can help you do just that. I have been developing and refining this approach for more than a decade and I am 100% confident that I can help you customize and use your own version of LOM in ways that will absolutely liberate you to become the storyteller of your own life.
This is going to be FUN ❤️
I see all kinds of organization and loads of creativity in your (very near) future.
How can you prepare?
Great question. Right now, I want you to get better acquainted with the computer and/or mobile device that you use to take and view digital images. If you do not have a mobile app or computer software that is serving you well, then make that your first assignment. Choose, install and learn about a tool(s) that can help you manage, use and share your digital images. What you use is less important that IF you feel comfortable using it, so grab a teenager or do some learning via YouTube and remember, everything is figureoutable!
The other thing you can do is gather scrapbook albums, photo books, negatives, slides, printed photos and boxes/collections of memorabilia to a common workspace (spare bedroom, dining room table, corner of the basement) that will become your command central for the next several months. Make sure you have a comfortable place to sit and (if possible) access to a computer or good WiFi connectivity in this space.
Print this Glossary of Terms. You might even want to slip it into a narrow binder (1/2”) and keep it handy. Also, if you printed this PDF as part of the FREE course, The Principles of Photo Freedom, you’ll want to print it again—it is updated for 2021.
If you haven’t yet taken my FREE course, I would encourage you do to this—it mainly consists of audio messages for you to listen to. These will introduce you to my philosophy and the principles of plan, purge, prioritize, categorize and share.
🎙 THIS episode of my podcast is also relevant as you anticipate our time together!

When I meet people or visit with someone and they find out what I do, they often say, “I just don’t know where to start!” This is why I am dedicating the next year of my life to YOU. By this time next year, you will have passed the START line multiple times. You’ll be making laps around the track with confidence and you’ll be surrounded by friends. The best part is you’ll be enjoying the process AND you’ll know exactly how to pass the baton to family members who will run the next race.
😉 p.s. I’m kinda big on metaphors, so get used to that!
➡️ Our private Facebook group is open and you can request access by clicking on the button under my photo. This Facebook community is filled with like-minded, generous people and watched over by six amazing coaches—there are ongoing conversations about all of what we tackle in this course.
Rest assured I will always notify you of updates to the classroom via email. If you’re not following me on Instagram @stacyjulian and @photofreedom2021 I would love to connect with you there as well!
