Becky’s baby shower in Peterborough

13 photos

I’ve been slowly creating an index of photo albums on my site, embedding the photos that I have saved on Flickr. And now, it is time for what is the biggest “push” of all — the year 2008. For most years, I have a little over 12 albums, one for each month plus maybe 1 or 2 more for trips or weddings, etc.

2008 is quite different. We got married in 2008, and all the photos for the pre-wedding stuff, the actual wedding, the reception, and the honeymoon, well, it’s a handful. From 2004 to 2007, I had 1385, 2732, 2238 and 1112 photos per respective year to curate. For 2008? 6146.

The good news is that I’ve already curated the photos, so I’m just creating new albums. But whereas I normally have 12-15 albums, I have…wait for it…16 regular albums + 24 for the wedding + 15 for the honeymoon. I might be able to drop 1-2 in there that don’t need online versions, but 55 albums is a lot.

I’ll likely finish in November for the actual posting, but with the delayed social media “shares”, it could be done just before Christmas. 🙂 But wait, there’s more. Each of those big wedding and honeymoon albums also has BLOG posts that go with them that have to be redone to use the pics. Call it another 30-40 posts. Or finishing for posting in December and on social media somewhere around late February.

It was a memorable year, so I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
