How to Organize Photos of Kids Sports: A Simple Guide
Capturing your child's athletic achievements and memorable moments in youth sports is priceless. But as the seasons pass, these photos can pile up, making it hard to find that one perfect shot when you need it, or to casually browse to relive your child's athletic pursuits. Here’s how you can keep your sports photos organized and easily accessible.
Step 1: Create a General Album like 'Kids Sports'
Start by creating a general album named "Youth Sports" or "Kids Sports". This album will serve as a primary repository where every sports-related photo goes. It’s your go-to spot for any quick browsing through all sports activities.
Step 2: Manually Tag Each Face
Since facial recognition technology typically requires a clear view of a person's face, it may not recognize individuals from side or back angles, which is common in sports photos. Therefore, you should manually tag your child in each photo. Make it a habit to manually add tags to ensure every photo is accurately labeled.
For example, if your child, Noah, appears in a photo, manually tag it with "Noah" and add it to the "Youth Sports" album. This manual tagging process ensures you can easily access all photos of Noah from various sports and events, regardless of the photo's angle.
Step 3: Organize Further with Specific Albums
For more detailed organization, create albums for each sport your child participates in, such as "Soccer" and "Basketball". When saving a photo, place it not only in the "Youth Sports" album but also in the specific sport album. This dual organization allows you to search by sport or just browse the general collection.
Step 4: Be Selective with Your Photos
Avoid saving every single photo you take. Instead, choose one or two key images from each game to keep your albums manageable and enjoyable. When it comes to videos, focus only on the highlights involving your child. Save those key moments rather than lengthy clips featuring other players.
Step 5: Don't Depend on Overcrowded Team Albums
While shared team albums are fantastic for capturing the season with contributions from multiple parents, they can become cluttered over time, or lock you out when you go back to find photos years later. Prioritize personal albums to ensure you can always find photos and videos of your child without sifting through extraneous content.
Step 6: Use an App for Efficient Organizing
Leverage the Photo Organizing App to streamline the process. The apps offers features to easily tag individuals with facial recognition, add a photos to multiple albums, and automatically backs up your best photos for safekeeping.
An Organized Collection of Your Child's Sporting Journey
By following these steps, you can create a well-organized photo collection that celebrates your child's sporting journey. This system not only preserves the memories but also makes them easily retrievable, ensuring that you can relive those thrilling moments at your convenience.
