Making an album for one person
Make an album and put pictures into it, knowing that nothing has been moved and nothing has been copied twice.
This is the one idea that makes albums stop being frightening: an album does not contain photographs. It contains a list of which photographs to show you.
Key points
- Make an album and give it a name you will recognize in ten years
- Add photographs to it later, from the library, using Select
- Know that nothing is moved, copied, or put at risk by any of it
- Delete an album with complete confidence that the pictures survive
What to remember
- Albums, then the plus, then New Album. It is the same on every phone.
- Albums are free to make and free to unmake. The photographs are never at stake.
- Select, then Add to Album. That is how everything gets into an album after the first day.
Try this
Make one album tonight, named after the person you photograph most, and put five pictures in it. Add to it whenever you think of it. In two years it will be the thing you are most glad you started.
