Wanna Get Your Photos Organized? Welcome!
I’m guessing you’re here because you love photos, love to take lots of them (or you have lots of them!), and you want to get organized. Sound about right?
Good news! You’re in the right place!
This blog was created specifically to help you get your photos organized! In a nutshell, we talk about how to organize and maintain your family history collection so that you can enjoy your memories and pass them down to future generations!
That’s right – we organize for fun!
Anyone who wants to learn how to be more efficient and organized in their digital photo life is welcome here, so we hope you’ll join our community of organized photo enthusiasts!
Here’s What You Need to Know about Me
My name is Caroline Guntur (formerly Nilsson), and I am an Organizing & Productivity Coach, currently living in the US.
I’m a storyteller at heart, so I love working with photos, memories, and family history. I am a Certified Photo Organizer, which means I teach and train in the fields of digital asset management and systems quite a bit.
I founded my company The Swedish Organizer, LLC to help people be more organized, and if you’ll let me, I’d love to be your coach on the journey to better photo organization!
The Goal of This Blog
Millions of digital photos are lost every year due to lack of organization.
Yep, it’s the sad truth. Phones are lost, computers crash, and natural disasters tear memories away from their owners. I can’t let that go on. I can’t stop the natural disasters, but I can at least help you back up your camera roll.
On top of that, thousands of outdated prints, slides, and negatives are sitting in sad little boxes around the world, waiting to be digitized.
It’s on the to-do list, yet somehow that project always takes the backseat. I can’t let that happen anymore. I don’t want YOUR legacy and stories to get lost! So I’ve decided to help you find them, help you organize them, and help you do something with them before it’s too late.
Join the Community for Access to the Best Resources
I have a bunch of resources for you to help you get started, such as blog articles, resource guides, checklists, and webinars, but if you need a bit of extra help, consider enrolling in DPO PRO: The Ultimate Photo Organizing Masterclass.

So What Qualifies Me To Teach This Stuff Anyway?
I am a Certified Photo Organizer, and a Certified Home Movie Specialist. My education includes a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Visual Communication from Hawaii Pacific University, a Master of Arts Degree in Arts, Entertainment & Media Management from Columbia, as well as an ESL certificate from Cambridge University.
I am a member of the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals (NAPO) and have previously served as Director of Technology & Communications for the Chicago chapter. I am an Advisory Board member to The Photo Managers, and for many year, I was also a member of the Association of Professional Genealogists (APG) and the Association of Personal Historians (APH), until their dissolution in 2017.
Talk to Me Anytime!
I have happy customers all over the world, including Sweden, Norway, Germany, Latvia, Portugal, England, Spain, Brazil, Canada, South Africa, and of course, the U.S., so no matter where you live, I hope you’ll think of my course when you need a little extra help! Even if you’re DIY-ing the whole project by yourself, I hope you will drop me a line to say Hej, or perhaps connect with me on social media! I look forward to helping you get organized!
Tack för besöket! That’s Thanks for the visit in Swedish!
