Photo Organization as a Career with Cathi Nelson


Listen Later

Maybe you have boxes of old photos in your house. Or maybe you’re a digital native. But whichever you are, you can’t deny that people are taking more and more photos every day. And who is going to sort them out?

I only became aware that a Photo Manager was a *thing* when I became overwhelmed dealing with boxes of pictures that I inherited from my parents, alongside many photos of my own children growing up. Luckily I found Cathi Nelson’s website and I found a lot of information that was super helpful for that project. 

Cathi Nelson is the leader of a global photo organizing movement. Her end goal is to educate and encourage people who have comfort with technology and a love of photos and stories to learn about the growing need for professional photo managers and to consider this as a profession.

As soon as I found Cathi it occurred to me then that photo organizing would be a great remote work opportunity. So I’m delighted that Cathi is my guest on the PGP podcast.

 Cathi is also one of our PGP experts offering a deeper dive training inside the membership, with a workshop called "How to Turn Your Love of Photos into a Business''. If you’d like access to that workshop and the 2 free books that she’s offering exclusively to our PGP community, go to PatientsGettingPaid.com and join us on the inside for this and many other trainings for chronicpreneurs.
