Does anyone have a good suggestion for cataloging photographs? I have boxes of them and would like to put them in some kind of order. Should they be chronological, by subject, etc.? Any ideas appreciated.

I like to do scrapbooks. A few years ago
I took a class in Utah and the teacher suggested that we sort our photos by occasion and then year. i.e. birthdays - 1998. Then sort by person and go from there. Even if you don't do scrapbooks, you could still put them in your photo album that way and I just use old envelopes and label what's inside.
I have had same problem and still do... i scan photos immediately into computer Start by creating a list of the subjects you shoot. then break down further to subcategores. after lists are created, assign three-letter codes to each one. and don't duplicate codes. use computer data base like excel or parodox. this will allow you to produce labels and catalog.
We had a similar Brainstorm recently. To read those responses, click on the link below.
