Add This to Your Reunion Picnic Basket

It's summer time and for many that means gathering for the summertime family reunion.  Next week I will be attending a family reunion and besides remembering to bring my lawnchairs, sunscreen, a fine summertime drink, and some great summer foods, like that trusty old potato salad, I've added another item to my picnic basket - I will also be packing my Flip-Pal mobile scanner. 






Here's How I'm Capturing Family Photos at My Next Family Reunion 


I sent an email out to those attending asking them to bring along 2-3 pictures that best depict their family over the years. I also posted it on our reunion website.  At the reunion, I will be able to scan their pictures with my Flip-Pal and return them immediately. I love this approach because I don't have to nag them a hundred times to send me pictures, plus by scanning and returning them immediately, I don't have to worry about being responsible for those pictures. They also are more likely to share because they don't have to leave them with me. They get them back immediately. Everybody walks away happy. I'll walk away with a nice selection of pictures for my next book (Tip: make sure they own the copyright on those pictures, and they know how you intend to use them).


I'll share pictures of me in action next week, with lessons learned.
