What’s New in DPO PRO: The Ultimate Photo Organizing Masterclass v3

DPO PRO: The Ultimate Photo Organizing Masterclass

I’m excited to officially share what’s new in DPO PRO v3, the latest version of DPO PRO: The Ultimate Photo Organizing Masterclass. This is not a minor refresh. DPO PRO v3 features a completely rewritten and updated curriculum, brand-new strategic roadmaps, and an expanded workshop archive — all designed to help you organize your digital photos with more clarity, less overwhelm, and long-term success. Simply put: this is the strongest and most refined version of DPO PRO yet. In this post, I’ll walk you through exactly what’s changed, why it matters, and how these updates will help you get better results as you work through your photo collection.

What Is DPO PRO?

DPO PRO is a comprehensive, step-by-step video masterclass created to help you organize your digital photos in a way that actually lasts.

Inside this photo organizing course, you learn how to:

  • consolidate photos from multiple devices and drives

  • choose the right photo program and tools for your situation

  • create a sustainable organization system

  • use metadata to make photos easy to find

  • protect your archive with proper backup strategies

  • maintain your system long-term

The course combines in-depth video tutorials, workbooks, roadmaps, templates, and support options so you always know what to do next. There’s no guesswork, or piecing together advice from random sources.

DPO PRO is available in three tiers: Self-Study, Supported VIP, and Private Hybrid, so you can choose the level of support that fits your goals and learning style.

DPO PRO: The Ultimate Photo Organizing Masterclass

DPO PRO v3 Has a Completely Rewritten Curriculum

One of the biggest changes in DPO PRO v3 is the fully rewritten curriculum. Version 3 represents a major evolution of the course. Instead of layering small updates onto the previous version, the entire course was completely rewritten and restructured. Every lesson was reviewed and updated based on recent years of student feedback and real-world photo organizing projects.

The goal was to make the process clearer, more intuitive, easier to follow, and far less overwhelming. This version answers common questions earlier, reduces decision fatigue, and supports you more effectively from start to finish.

What this means for you:

  • clearer explanations of why each step matters

  • better sequencing so you don’t organize before you’re ready

  • updated workflows based on current software and best practices

  • more guidance around decision-making, not just technical steps

This makes DPO PRO v3 especially helpful if you’ve struggled with uncertainty, stalled progress, or second-guessing your choices in the past.

All Workshops Are Now Available in a Bonus Archive

Another major upgrade in DPO PRO v3 is the addition of a Workshop Archive.

All past workshops are now collected into a single, organized archive and included as a bonus when you enroll in the wo higher tiers of DPO PRO.

This gives you:

  • on-demand access to all special interest workshops

  • deeper dives into specific topics

  • real-world examples and extended explanations

  • the ability to revisit trainings whenever you need extra support

Instead of searching for answers or waiting for the “right” workshop, you now have a growing library of focused trainings available anytime.

Brand-New Roadmaps to Guide Your Time for Maximum Results

We have also added roadmaps in DPO PRO v3 (this is completely new!), and they are one of the most impactful improvements in this version. They were created to answer one of the most common questions students ask: “What should I be working on right now to get the best results?”

The new DPO PRO roadmaps:

  • show you where to focus your time for maximum impact

  • help you avoid busywork and over-organizing

  • guide you based on your current situation and goals

  • make it easier to pause and restart without losing momentum

If you’ve ever felt stuck deciding what to tackle next, these roadmaps provide clarity and confidence at every stage of the process.

We have four versions of our roadmap. First, we ask you are (Aspiring Pro vs. DIYer?), and then we ask how quickly you’d like to move through the process (3 months vs. one year). Some people like to take their time; others want results NOW. No matter which camp you fall into, we’ll show you exactly where to spend your time.

Improved Support and Learning Experience

DPO PRO v3 also strengthens the overall learning experience with improved support and structure.

Depending on your tier, you’ll have access to:

  • Monthly group coaching calls (with replays)

  • Priority email support

  • a private student community

  • special-interest workshops

These layers of support are designed to help you keep moving forward, even when your photo organizing project feels emotionally or technically challenging.

Who DPO PRO v3 Is Best For?

DPO PRO v3 is ideal if you:

  • feel overwhelmed by a large digital photo collection

  • aren’t sure which tools or software to use

  • want a clear plan instead of piecing together advice

  • care about long-term access and preservation

  • want to organize once — and maintain it going forward

Whether you’re starting from scratch or revisiting an unfinished project, this version of DPO PRO meets you where you are.

 

How to Join Us in DPO PRO

Enrollment for DPO PRO v3 is now open. We invite you to take a look at the curriculum, and ask us any questions you might have about the course.

You can choose from the following tiers:

  • Self-Study — lifetime access to the fully rewritten DPO PRO curriculum

  • Supported VIP — includes coaching calls, the workshop archive, and priority support

  • Private Hybrid — personalized guidance, a 30-minute planning session, and four private Zoom calls

All tiers include a 14-day money-back guarantee, so you can explore DPO PRO risk-free.

Ready to Finally Get Organized?

The new version of DPO PRO reflects years of learning from students, from real organizing projects, and from teaching people how to build photo systems that actually last. With a fully rewritten curriculum, brand-new roadmaps, and a complete workshop archive, this version offers more clarity, structure, and support than ever before. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to organize your photos, this is the best version to begin with – no question.

We look forward to working with you!

In desperation about the hodgepodge of digital photos that were scattered around unorganized in my life, in July 2020, I found info about Caroline Guntur’s DPO PRO class. I signed up and devoted the early Covid-19 lockdown months to working through the modules offered in the class. The class videos were very informative and enlightening. I gathered thousands of digital photos from many locations — old phones, old computers, CDs & DVDs, plus emails & text messages. I went through them all and discarded many duplicates. I formulated a naming convention for pictures, that I have now begun using for all my digital files. Along the way, I had many questions which I emailed to Caroline. Her patience is phenomenal, and her always-attentive care and prompt responses helped me immensely. I also learned so many useful things in this class that were not directly related to organizing photos. For example, I now have an automated system that backs up my entire computer daily, in addition to a cloud-based backup system that I already used. For me, the cost of the DPO PRO class was a hefty financial investment, but it has already been worth every penny. Caroline is a wonderful teacher, and I think of her as a friend, though we have never met.

Caroline helped me finally organize 20 years of images, in various formats, scattered across multiple locations and devices - a task I had been wanting to accomplish for years, but was completely overwhelmed about how to begin. I had three iPhoto libraries and didn’t know which one was the most current or had the most images, plus I had images saved in several Dropbox folders, a few thumb drives, my computer hard drive, two external hard drives, an iPad and two years of images on my iPhone. I also had images in an Aperture library, a program that doesn’t exist anymore so I didn’t know how to access them. I’m a reasonably “techie” person, but reading online articles about how to begin sorting through them always left me feeling overwhelmed. None of the step-by-step articles applied to me and my specific needs...Finally, I have ONE image library for all my images, all organized so I can quickly find any image I want, and with the peace of mind that all my images are constantly backed up and secure... I never would have been able to figure out how to do this alone. It is the best money I have spent in a long time!
