USE CASE

Family photographs & stories

Some collections begin with contributions from many people. Others grow through one person’s everyday photographs and notes. The practical questions are who can contribute, who reviews the material and how you keep the originals.

Invite contributions

Still With Us lets people contribute through a browser while the family reviews incoming material before adding it to the page. Begin with one specific request for a memory or photo.

Build a personal collection

Dearfolio has a public website and web entry for photographs, stories and voice notes. Review current access and storage information before choosing it for a long-term collection.

Agree on sharing

Ask contributors how their photographs and stories may be used. Keep original files separately and include names, dates and useful context while those details are still available.
