Make a manageable dent in an unlabeled photo collection by giving a small batch accurate context. Gather ten photographs, a notebook or photo app, and a pencil.
Set it up
Select images from one occasion and separate details you know from names or dates that you still need to check. Give each photograph a temporary number before sorting so captions remain matched throughout the session.
Put the idea to work
Record the place, approximate time, people who agree to be named, and one visible detail that explains the moment.
Finish and keep it useful
Store the captions beside the correct images using consistent filenames or reversible notes on the photo storage sleeves. Do not write guessed dates as definite facts simply to make every caption look complete.
