Meet Elizabeth

Preserving memories has been part of my story for a very long time.

Hi, I'm Elizabeth Shaw, owner of Elegant Photo Solutions, LLC. I help individuals and families organize, digitize, protect, and preserve the photographs, documents, videos, and stories that make up their family history. Whether you're facing inherited photographs, scattered digital images, or memories you simply want to protect for the future, my goal is to make the process feel manageable.

Where My Story Began

My passion for preserving family stories began with a fourth-grade homework assignment to document my family lineage. What started as a simple school project became a family passion shared with my mother and grandmother.

More than 40 years later, that interest has grown into an extensive collection of photographs, documents, historical records, and family research tracing our ancestry back to the 1400s in England and Scotland.

Our photographs aren't simply pictures. Together with our documents and stories, they become pieces of our family's legacy.

From a Personal Passion to Elegant Photo Solutions

My professional preservation journey began in 2008 with Creative Memories and expanded into digital preservation and professional photo organizing when I joined FOREVER in 2015. In 2020, I founded Elegant Photo Solutions, LLC to bring those areas together and provide personalized help for families preserving their memories in both traditional and digital formats.

My professional background includes:
·       FOREVER Executive Ambassador
·       Certified Photo Manager
·       Certified Privacy Advocate
·       Certified Legacy Preservation Specialist
·       Creative Memories Advisor

The titles aren't why I do this work. I do it because I understand how much these memories matter.

Your Memories. Your Priorities. Your Plan.

There isn't one right way to approach a preservation project. You may want someone to handle most of the work, work alongside me, or simply help you create a plan you can complete yourself.

I work one-on-one with my clients to create practical solutions based on their goals, priorities, collection, budget, and comfort level. That may include organizing and digitizing photographs, preserving family history and important documents, protecting digital memories and legacy, or creating meaningful keepsakes.

Your memories don't need to fit someone else's system. Your solution should work for you and your family.

Let's Preserve Your Story

You don't have to organize everything at once or figure it all out by yourself. Whether you have one photo box or generations of family history, we can start where you are and create a plan for where you want to go.

Because every memory has a story, and every story deserves to be preserved.
