the way YOU want to
Hi, I’m Fiona McLauchlan Staff.
I started Photo Helper to help families enjoy their photos in this new era of photography. Gone are the days of double prints. Now we have an abundance of digital photos taken every day.
Founded in 2017, Photo Helper is a service to families with an overwhelming photo collection of both printed and digital photos. I run webinars, post video tutorials, provide personal in-home services, and manage our Photo Helper Scanning Studio.
I have over 15 years experience not only working within the photography industry, but also helping people like yourself in personal organisation.

I feel your pain. . .
I absolutely love looking back on my own family photo collection and found myself overwhelmed by the sheer volume (including photos I had inherited over time!)
I had. . .
- Photo Albums. . . those old sticky ones, that were damaging my photos
- Multiple Photo Libraries on my Mac. . . that had been started, copied, duplicated, and then a new one created
- Scattered files all over my computer. . . with more copies, maybe copies, and 'just in case I hadn't backed this up yet' copies!
- Umpteen loose photos. . . still in the packets, some in envelopes, large prints, small prints, old and really old prints
- CDs, Hard Drives, USBs. . . with goodness knows what on them
. . . and I longed for the day they were all backed up safely, and sorted in a way I could find what I wanted to, easily. Today, as a Certified Photo Organiser, I not only have my own family photo collection saved and sorted, I now have the privilege of helping others do the same.
