Getting Ready for Vacation Season: A Simple Way to Organize Your Travel Photos

As vacation season approaches, many of us start planning trips, getaways, and time with family and friends. And, of course, we take a lot of photos.

Beach sunsets. City streets. Group selfies. That unforgettable meal.

Over time, those memories spread across phones, cameras, and cloud accounts—making them harder to find later.

If you’ve ever searched for photos from “that one trip a few years ago,” you’re not alone.

Start with What You Have

If you’re feeling motivated, try gathering photos from past trips and placing them in simple folders by year and location:

2022 – Hawaii

2023 – Yellowstone

2024 – Italy

You don’t have to do everything at once. Even organizing one favorite trip is a great start.

Or Start Fresh This YeaR

If going backward feels overwhelming, it’s okay to start now.

Before your next trip, create a folder with the destination and year. When you get home, move your photos there.

This small habit makes future organizing much easier.

Make It Easy to Enjoy Your Memories

When travel photos are organized, it’s easier to look back, share albums, and relive special moments—without endless scrolling. A little structure now goes a long way.

A Gentle Reminder

Your vacation photos tell the story of where you’ve been and who you’ve shared those moments with.
