Keeping Vacation Photos Safe

 

I have been a fan of Amazon since college. But even then I was in awe of how many things I could buy on amazon and how fast and reliable it was. I remember too when Amazon Prime came out having someone tell me about it while studying for a final in grad school and stopping what I was doing and signing up. I don’t hesitate to renew it each year and I can’t tell you how quickly it pays for itself. I mean guys what can you not buy on Amazon?

Have you ever thought of how amazon can assist you in keeping your photos safe? What about keeping your vacation photos safe?

Have you ever gone on vacation and taken all the photos with your phone only to have something terrible happen to your phone and lose the photos? Sounds like a nightmare right? The photos we take on vacations are PRICELESS! We can’t recreate the magic, the fun, the romance.

Keeping Vacation Photos Safe

Andrew and I recently went to Napa on our anniversary trip. Even though I was sick with a cold I knew I wanted to remember that day. Being our first anniversary trip and my first time in Napa many pictures had to be taken.

Keeping Your Photos Safe With Amazon Cloud Drive

As soon as we left Napa to drive back to San Francisco I had to make sure the photos were safe. What did I do? I uploaded them to the Amazon Cloud Drive. Not only did this only take a few minutes, but I knew I could breathe a little easier because our photos were safe.

Keeping Your Photos Safe with Amazon

If you are an Amazon Prime member, you already have access to Amazon Cloud Drive with Prime Photos, which provides unlimited photo storage as part of your Prime membership. In addition, Prime members get 5 GB of additional storage space for videos, movies, music, and files.

There are also two price points for non Prime Members and Prime members who want a little extra storage:

    • Unlimited Everything Plan ($59.99 per year—equivalent of less than $5 per month): Store an infinite number of new and existing photos, videos, files, documents, movies, and music in Cloud Drive.
    • Unlimited Photos Plan ($11.99 per year—equivalent of less than $1 per month): Similar to the Prime member benefit – non Prime members can also store an infinite number of photos in Cloud Drive without worrying about taking up space on phones, cameras, or other devices. This plan also includes 5 GB of additional storage for videos or other documents and files.

Keeping vacation photos safe and photos and files in general safe is so important to me. It should be for you too!

Have you ever used Amazon Cloud Drive?

    I don’t like Prime as I do not believe it should cost. It encourages people to spend mindless amounts of money and I am far to frugal.. I am a photographer so I use memory cards then download the card to a external hard drive that is secure . I don’t have a fancy expensive cell so I do not take photos with my phone.
