OrganizingPhotos.net presents:

DPO PRO: The Ultimate Photo Organizing Masterclass

Would you like to regain control over your digital photos?

Confidently consolidate and organize your digital photo collection in 90 days or less – without the tech overwhelm!


LET ME GUESS…

You love your photos, but you don't do much with them...

Perhaps that’s because you can’t find them. Perhaps it’s because they live in the cloud and you’re not sure how to sync them. Whatever the reason, we need to get your photos back into your life! 

I want you to be able to enjoy your photos instead of struggling to manage them!

 

Does any of this sound familiar?
If so, DPO PRO is for you!

You’d love to share that one photo with your family, if you could only remember where it’s stored … or what device it’s on …

You’ve got so many duplicate photos that you don’t know which ones are the originals … and which ones to delete

You’ve got cloud storage (Hello Dropbox!), but you’re not sure how it all syncs … If I delete here, does it delete there? 

You’d love to create more with your photos, but you feel like being disorganized is standing in your way …

You’d love to add keywords and other metadata to your photos, but you’re not sure how go about it so it “sticks”…

You’d love to use a photo management program, but you’re not sure which one is suitable for you, or which version to get …

I GET IT. I’VE BEEN THERE.

Once upon a time, I was you!

I used to be disorganized. It wasn’t that I didn’t care, but I had no idea about where to start, which program to use, or why I should pick one over another. I just knew I loved photography and wanted to care for my memories properly. I threw myself into the digital world and eventually I figured it all out. Sure, it took time, but it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made because it led me to a career I could never have predicted! 

Then, in early 2016, after many years working as a professional photo organizer, I finally sat down to create this course for people like you, who might be that earlier version of me …. the person I was before it all changed! 

And let me tell you, if I can do it, you can too!


I Want You to Have the Same Success I Did!

GO FROM…

Frustrated & overwhelmed with all all the options out there – Lightroom, iCloud, Google, Amazon, Bridge, Dropbox, Mylio … What should I use???

Total clarity on your choice.

GO FROM…

Paying to constantly upgrade storage accounts because you don’t know what’s there or how to declutter. The scary folders are real and they’re multiplying!

Only paying for what you need.

GO FROM…

Worrying about losing photos by accidentally deleting them. You’re not sure what you’re doing wrong and how to fix it! You’d love to keep your photos safe in the future!

A solid backup strategy.

INTRODUCING…

DPO PRO: The Ultimate Photo Organizing Masterclass

DPO stands for “Digital Photo Organizing.” 

It’s not a new field, but it’s also not a well known field, at least not yet. It used to be that only companies needed help managing their digital assets, but the technology revolution has left the average person with a collection big enough to rival even the largest of companies. When you add in videos, documents, and other types of files that also end up in our collections, it can quickly get overwhelming. 

DPO PRO was created to help you learn the life-long skills you need to manage your family photo archive and keep it safe. 

If you’re the “designated family historian,” this course is perfect for you! 

 

5/5

"Taking DPO PRO was a godsend to me and it gave me exactly what I needed."

I thought I had a pretty good photo organizing system. Having Mac, iPad, and iPhone, I use Apple Photos to organize all my photos, sync among devices, upload, create albums by year and events, and share some photos with family and friends. It was all very easy and convenient till my hard drive got full. At that point, I was stuck on how to continue. Taking DPO PRO was a godsend to me and it gave me exactly what I needed. 

The course was easy to understand and offered great tips, options, and resources to help me create a long-term photo organizing system that works for me. It also taught me that I should not just think of today’s convenience, but think about preserving all my memories for the long-term future. I can’t imagine how sad and angry I would be if I were to lose all those photos!!

"Caroline is a wonderful teacher, and I think of her as a friend, though we have never met."

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.

"I highly recommend this course for anyone wanting to be involved in the process of getting their photos in order."

My family’s once organized photo collection had started growing out of control

My old personal albums + my husbands old printed photos + albums I inherited + digital photos stored on my laptop + cell phone photos stored on old cell phones + a Dropbox account + friends’ photos of us on sharing sites + Facebook photos + photos from various emails = too many photos in too many places!!! 

Caroline’s course helped me commit to doing what I could do to get things under control again and gave me the education and tools I needed to do it. I loved the step-by-step approach. It gave enough details for me to fully understand what to do and make informed choices where necessary, without being information overflow. I highly recommend this course for anyone wanting to be involved in the process of getting their photos in order.

WELCOME TO THE COMMUNITY!

Hi there! I'm Caroline

…and I’m your coach on the journey towards better organization! As a Professional Organizer, specializing in photos and family history, I’ve been helping people just like you preserve memories for over a decade.

There’s nothing more fulfilling than seeing the joy on my clients’ faces when they relive memories they haven’t seen in years, and when they understand the peace of mind it brings knowing that their collections are safe and secure. 

I’m a Golden Circle member of NAPO (the National Association of Organizing & Productivity Professionals), a Certified member of The Photo Managers, and formerly a Professional Member of APG (the Association of Professional Genealogists).

Add to that, a Master’s Degree in Media Managementa past career in Photography, and you’ve got someone who’ll care for your memories like they are her own. I will not let you fail.  Let’s do this together!

CAROLINE HAS BEEN FEATURED IN:

Is DPO PRO right for you?

You’re ready to roll up your sleeves and untangle your digital mess once and for all, so that you can be confident in your system and strategy from now on!

You’re motivated by the fact that in 90 days from now, you’ll be able to share memories with your family that you haven’t enjoyed in years!

You’re passionate about leaving behind a rich family history legacy for your children and grand-children, so that everyone can be remembered.

YOU’VE MADE IT THIS FAR…SO GO AHEAD AND JUMP IN!

The Time is NOW!

Look, I know what you might be thinking. “I’ll get to this someday.” 

But that’s not good enough. 

Your memories are too important to ignore. The longer you wait, the more the mess is going to snowball. 

The longer you wait, the bigger investment of time, energy, and resources it’s going to take to get organized again. And the longer you wait, the more your memories are at a risk of tech crashes and fails! I’ve been there, remember? Sure, you can ignore it all and just keep upgrading your cloud storage, but that’ll only compound the problem over time, and…who wants to sift through thousands of photos to find one good one anyway?

Let’s not go down that road. 

Take this journey with me, and imagine what it will feel like, when:

You can enjoy your memories again without worrying about accidentally deleting something!

You get to relive old memories from the past with your family and friends!

You can find the photo you are looking for within a minute without scrolling… and scrollling….and scrolling…

You have a photo management system that supports you, not the other way around!

You are proud to pass down an organized family history and leave a legacy for future generations!

Have a Question?

While both courses are identical in core curriculum content, the VIP course has support in the form of monthly group coaching, a private community,  and time-saving bonuses (see above for complete list) to help you succeed. VIP course students receive access to monthly group coaching calls where they can ask questions in real-time, troubleshoot, and get feedback on their work. It’s more of an experience.

Yes! So many people have storage issues, so that’s one of the first things we tackle in this course! Whether you are in the cloud, use a computer, or are syncing photos mobile devices, we will help you with your space management! 

We completely understand that these types of projects can feel overwhelming for any tech newbie, but you’ll be OK.
We will do everything we can to help you succeed!

The course starts from the very beginning, and includes content on how to use your operating system (how to move files and folders, etc), how different programs are set up, and what to look for. The entire module of digital basics is there to bring you up to speed on what you need to know before you start moving files around.

If you’re a complete beginner, we always recommend the VIP version as you’ll be able to get personalized feedback and coaching included! Support helps tremendously!

Great question! The time it will take for you to complete the course will depend on a few things, for example how many photos you have, how much time you have to work with the program, and what type of tech skills you have. 

The course is meant to be completed within 90 days, but we have had clients take much longer and we have some that have taken much less time. The program’s running time is approximately 6 hours of video, but you have continuous and on-demand access, so there is no actual deadline for finishing your organizing project.

 If you work better with a deadline and want one, email us and we’ll set one for you. If you enroll in the VIP version, you will received monthly group coaching for a period of one year to give you ample time to finish, but that can also be extended on an annual basis for an additional cost.

Yes! While we show you tutorials in the three most popular photo management programs on the market (Photo Mechanic, Apple Photos, and Adobe Lightroom), there is no rule that says you can’t use another one. We have had plenty of students who have used Adobe Bridge, Mylio, Google Photos, and others! We’ve even had students who opted to not use a program at all and just work in the operating system. We teach you how to drive – what type of car you have doesn’t matter that much!

Not directly. This course teaches you digital photo organization. However, we realize that many of our students also have a lifetime of printed materials, so it’s something we discuss quite a bit in our VIP calls. If you would like guidance on your printed photos too, enroll in one of the two VIP plans, so that we can assist you more in depth. In the monthly group coaching calls, you can ask about anything, and in the private coaching, we can work on whatever goals you have! 

You have lifetime access to the curriculum for the version of the course you enroll in. If you join as a VIP member, you will also have 12-month access to monthly group coaching calls and our private community, which we feel is adequate time to complete your project. Should you want to stay enrolled past that timeframe, you are more than welcome to renew access at an additional cost (currently $220/year). Should you choose not to renew VIP support, you will be downgraded to the Self-Study support level.

You can use either a Mac or a PC to get your photos organized because the course includes organizing options for both operating systems. We even have a video on Mac vs. PC, so you can see what’s similar and what’s different. We do not showcase Linux, and if you use that, you already have the tech skills to work this out on your own.

Our course is designed to educate you on photo organizing, and not to promote a specific product, service, platform, or software. This course is free from advertising, which makes it more costly to run than if we were partnering up with advertisers. We believe that this independence maintains the objectivity we value and lets you have a biased-free experience. 

We understand that this course may seem expensive compared to other online courses, workshops, and resources you have purchased in the past, but we are actually very competitively priced for our industry. Please remember that this is a very in-depth course that teaches you life-long skills! You will learn directly from sought-after Professional Organizers who do this for a living. The average cost for a private organizing project is around US$20,000, and this is a suitable alternative if you’re willing to put in a bit of work yourself. 

On our VIP and VIP + Coaching plans you get support for an entire year, which is also much longer than the average course on the market.

Yes. The Swedish Organizer, LLC, which is the company that operates this program is a professional member in good standing with both NAPO (the National Association of Organizing & Productivity Professionals), and TPM (The Photo Managers), and we adhere to both associations’ codes of ethics.

Yes. This course explains and recommends industry standards, but it does not require you to follow them if you should choose not to do so. We simply want to make you aware of what they are, so that you can make an informed choice.

You have 12 months from date of enrollment to book your 4 calls via Zoom – instructions will be provided to you on how to schedule. The calls can be spaced out or done in closer proximity, but we recommend scheduling one call for every stage of the organizing process for best results!

Yes! Once you join DPO PRO, you get access to all the lessons (modules) instantly, so you are welcome to watch them in any order you want depending on what you are doing. Of course, we always recommend watching them in sequence (especially for beginners), because most lessons build upon each other, but you can skip around if you so choose. Skipping around does not affect the content in any way. There is no time limit on when and how many times you can watch the videos as long as you are enrolled.

No, not at all! We have helped students from all over the world, including Norway, Sweden, Spain, Brazil, Japan, South Africa, Australia, Zimbabwe, Portugal, Dubai, India, and New Zealand. We love that our community is international! 

You will receive a confirmation email that gives you access to the course and all related materials within a few minutes. If you don’t see your enrollment details show up, please email support@theswedishorganizer.com
