If you'd be interested in being featured, we would love to hear from you.
Here's how it works:

Write it up (100-300 words) and send it to us at: hello@legacyphotoservices.com

Before we share your photo and story, we'll ask you to sign a short release. The Photo Managers may also feature it. If you'd like to participate or just want to hear more, send us an email and we'll send over the details.
Save Your Photos Month
Save Your Photos Month began in 2014 as a response to the emotional aftermath of disasters like Hurricane Sandy and the Joplin tornadoes, when families were reunited with precious photo memories.
Originally launched as Save Your Photos Day, the event expanded into a month-long public awareness campaign in 2016 to give people the tools and knowledge they need to protect their photos before it’s too late.
Held every September, Save Your Photos Month has grown into a global movement offering free education, expert advice, and community engagement to help individuals, families, and professionals safeguard their visual legacies.
Each year, The Photo Managers present a series of live broadcasts, downloadable resources, and special events covering topics such as digitizing, organizing, restoring, and sharing photo and video collections all at no cost. Here's the link to learn all about the different opportunities:
