Advice Hour description

Do you have family history photos?

Would you like to learn how to take care of them?

Ever wondered what to do with them?

Worried about how to pass them on?

Ann will be on hand to answer questions big or small, about all areas of photogenealogy, including gathering, organising and backing up digital images, and sorting, digitising and preserving physical photos. And then using these images and photos in imaginative ways to create a treasured and valuable legacy.

Submit questions and photos in advance in our exclusive Forum

Not got a question at the moment? Attend to learn from the answers Ann gives to others! 

You might find it helps you to formulate questions of your own that you’d never even considered asking.
