Start by rounding up all your photos scattered across various devices and corners of the internet. Think of it as herding cats 🐱, but way more fun. Once you’ve got them all in one place, it’s time to move to the next exciting phase! This is where it's important to try and delete the ones you don't need... if you're on an iPhone, remember you can view your different picture types and delete the ones you don't need - we're specifically looking at the screenshots section...

Step 2: Time to Import 🚀

Connect your camera or phone to your Mac, and let the Photos app swing into action. It's like opening a portal to your own personal photo universe. Click 'Import' and watch as your images parade into your Mac, ready for the next adventure. This step isn't quite as easy if you're an android users, but we've got a solution for that further down the page.

Step 3: Create Albums Like a Boss 📚🏷

Now, let’s get organizing! Create albums for different events, themes, or however you fancy. Drag and drop your photos into these albums, just like sorting your favorite vinyl records into genres. Rock, Pop, or those moody Indie vibes – your Mac doesn’t judge your taste!

Step 4: Editing and Jazzing Up 🎨✨

Your Mac comes with some nifty editing tools. Crop, adjust colors, or slap on a filter to make those sunset photos pop. It’s like having a photo spa day, and every picture gets the VIP treatment!
