If you have a digital camera, it’s likely you’ve been uploading those precious photos to your computer. But maybe you don’t have the time to print out those photos because life is busy. Reeeeeeallly busy??!! So the big question is…Until you’re ready to print out those photos, are you protecting them by backing up regularly?
We’ve all heard those horror stories from friends or family members that they suddenly had a hard drive crash…Losing all of their photos in the process. Or maybe, God forbid, you yourself have even experienced a hard drive crash. Oh my, there is nothing more painful to think about – especially if you have hundreds (or thousands) of photos of your children stored away on the computer.
If you aren’t already using a back-up drive, you should absolutely consider doing that. But if you are looking for a new, awesome alternative…I have just the product (and giveaway!) for you today!…
Have you heard of Picture Keeper? I had not heard of this product until I received an e-mail from my sweet friends at the company. The Picture Keeper is the simplest automatic picture backup device you can use to protect those precious photos. What’s even better is that it’s not a software program.
Nope, you heard me alright! No need to install something new on your computer. You simply plug the Picture Keeper device into your computer, it automatically locates all of your photos and saves them. That’s it!
Yup, just plug it in, click start and the Picture Keeper does all the work for you! You can even use it in a digital photo frame, LCD TV, photo kiosk, or just store it away for safe keeping.
The Picture Keeper comes in four sizes to fit the needs of any digital photo collection. The first size is the Picture Keeper PK 4…
The PK8 holds up to 8,000* photos and is $59.99.
* estimate – based on an average size of 1MB per picture.
The third size is called the PK 16…
The PK16 holds up to 16,000* photos and costs $99.99.
* estimate – based on an average size of 1MB per picture.
And finally, for all those pros out there, the largest size is called the PK Pro…
The PK Pro holds up to 250,000* photos and is $189.99.

How much is peace of mind worth to you? Not sure about you guys, but my digital photos mean everything to me and they are priceless. I have big plans to get them off my computer, printed, and into books very soon. You guys will soon hear all about my new system for organizing photos and creating simple scrapbooks. But until my home renovation projects slow down in a few months, those photos will be kept safe and secure on my Picture Keeper.
I couldn’t wait to try it out. It was so easy! All I did was plug in the Picture Keeper device in the side of my laptop…
Then this window popped up on my desktop…
Once you start the backup process, you’ll see the Picture Keeper working hard to locate all of your photos…
With the photos located, it’s time to back them up…
As the Picture Keeper is backing up your photos, you’ll also see how much time is remaining and how many duplicate photos were skipped. Once the backup is complete, the Picture Keeper details how much space is remaining and how many photos are on the device…
That was easy! When you’re done, just eject the device and store away in a safe place until next time.
The Picture Keeper difference:
* Skips duplicate photos
* No software to install, wires to connect, passwords to remember, or monthly fees
* Use on multiple computers; PC and Mac compatible
* Once one Picture Keeper fills, just use another and the second will continue where the first left off. Amazing!!!
* Works well with all photo organizing softwares like Kodak Easy Share
* Easily use with your digital photo frame, favorite print kiosk or keep in a fireproof safe

* Picture Keeper has agreed to giveaway the PK4 device. I was not paid in cash for this posting. I was sent a product for review and all opinions are my own.
This looks amazing! Thanks so much, Samantha, for the opportunity to win one!
This is EXACTLY what i've been looking for. I bought a USB flashdrive but it is a LOT of work to drag my photos, organize and name them. This would be a lifesaver. All my pictures are stored on my laptop that I haven't used in over 3 years. It's just a matter of time before it's completely gone.
What a gem this is! Thank you for the chance!
I actually did have my external crash and lost all of my pictures that were backed up on it. I was devestated! I cried for a week because that was 4 years worth of my kids that I lost.
