Hi, my name is Debra Benbow,   I'm inspired by photos and the life stories they represent!   

In 1991 I made a commitment to get two large boxes of our family memories  into photo albums and to preserve our stories.  My own experience led me  to a passion to teach and help others.

Since then I've had the privilege of helping a lot of people tell their stories and protect their photos as a consultant for Creative Memories.   As digital photography came of age,  I started noticing people were becoming more overwhelmed with the state of their photos. Big River Photo Solutions was born in 2013, out of the desire to reach and help more people get their photos out of boxes, off their computers and memory cards, and back into their lives.   I joined the Forever Ambassador team in 2014 after doing a lot of research looking for the best media conversion and online backup service to offer my clients, as well as for my own photos.

As an instructor and mentor, I've taught classes and workshops for traditional album making and digital photo organization and editing software through Community Education programs as well as private workshops and events.

Using the latest technologies and your photos from the past and present, I look forward to helping you collect, sort, organize and create keepsakes that tell your life stories for generations to come.
 

My husband and I live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I'm an avid gardener, photographer, and a mom to three grown children, and have five adorable grandchildren.
