How to Tame Your Photo Chaos and Preserve Memories for Generations
Episode 6
Monday, 2 June, 2025
In this episode of "Rock Your Retirement," host Kathe Kline and co-host Barb are joined by special guest Angela Andrieux, a fine art photographer and photography coach who works with Mylio Photos. The conversation centers around a problem many retirees—and really, anyone with a camera—face: what to do with the countless photos accumulated over a lifetime, scattered across different devices, albums, and platforms. Barb shares her personal struggle with organizing photos spanning decades, from physical albums in her motorhome to digital files on old computers, Facebook, Shutterfly, and her phone. She confesses the overwhelm that comes from trying to sort, organize, and ultimately create meaningful albums, especially with an eye toward leaving behind a curated photo legacy for her family.Angela introduces listeners to the Mylio Photos application, explaining how it serves as a digital asset manager for organizing, tagging, and backing up all types of photos—from scanned prints to digital snapshots. She details how Mylio’s powerful features, including facial recognition, manual and batch tagging, and the creation of albums (similar to playlists), can help users corral their photo chaos into a well-structured, easily navigable library. As Angela points out, Mylio runs across all major platforms (Mac, Windows, iOS, Android) and doesn’t lock photos into a proprietary system; instead, all organizational data is written as standard metadata, ensuring lasting accessibility even if you leave the service.The discussion also covers practical aspects, like different ways to categorize photos (by date, event, location, or subject), how to reclaim images from places like Facebook, and the importance of not relying on a single cloud-based service for storage. Angela reassures listeners that while there is some upfront work—especially batch and manual tagging of faces—Mylio helps speed up the process and offers onboarding assistance and ongoing support. For anyone feeling especially overwhelmed, there’s even an option to connect with a professional photo manager for more hands-on help.Cost and value are addressed transparently. Angela outlines Mylio’s subscription pricing, the family plan for sharing access, and the unique aspect that you retain control and local backups of your photos even if you leave the service. The episode concludes with both Kathe and Barb expressing relief and newfound motivation to tackle their own photo messes, with Angela providing clear next steps and encouragement. Ultimately, the conversation is a practical and reassuring guide for anyone seeking to preserve, organize, and truly enjoy their family’s photo legacy in retirement and beyond.This show is sponsored by CertifiedMedicareAgents.com.
