For those that know me (in real life, or even through my blog readings), you may see that I have a photo obsession. I love creating memories. I love capturing memories. I guess you can say that it is my ‘therapy’. On a rainy day, I love taking my camera out and snapping pictures. On a nice day, I do the same. Regardless of the weather, my camera is a part of me. Some people read books to ‘get away’. I take pictures.
When it comes to my family, my friends, travels and anything in between, I am a HUGE picture taker. Just this past week at Disneyland, I took 280 pictures. What am I going to do with all those pictures? How cool would it be to be able to have those pictures in a digital picture frame? I have never seen one of these in person, but recently, I was out and about and I saw one in person. Amazing piece of technology, I tell ya!

As you know Kodak is all about strengthening the relationships that matter the most through the power of photography. During this information-age, family and friends can find themselves scattered all over the place. With constant connectivity on Facebook or Twitter, we often find ourselves assuming that we are keeping in touch well enough to keep loneliness at bay but in fact 67% of those say there is more loneliness in today’s society than there used to be.
Kodak believes that enhancing your relationships with family and friends through photography not only allows you to remember moments you want to cherish, but helps you connect further than a “poke” or a “tweet.”
There are many ways people can interact with photos everyday to strengthen their relationships with others. Judy Weiser, a world authority in PhotoTherapy techniques, has partnered with Kodak to help Americans combat loneliness and reach out to the people they miss. PhotoTherapy tips include:
- Create A Picture-Perfect Environment: Decorate your space with photos of friends, family, loved ones and places you enjoy. Be sure to select photos that contain strong positive memories. Every photo has feelings and memories just underneath its surface; choosing the right one lets you to revisit those moments all over again.
- Share Your World: The people you miss, miss you too. Let the important people in your life know how you’re doing by sharing not just the special moments but the ordinary moments too. Sharing the “small stuff” can have a BIG impact on your relationships.
- Interview Your Photo: Unlock the magic of your photo. Find the happiest picture in your collection and imagine a conversation with it. What positive message would it want you to know? How would it like you to feel? What would it want you to remember?
- Try a Photo Pick Me Up: Beat your blues! Find your most positive photo and carry it with you. Looking at a photo of happier times puts you right back there again, feeling that same way, right now!
- Breaking the Ice: Turn your photos into conversation starters. Behind every picture is a great story that wants to be told; it’s just waiting for you to ask! Sharing your photos is like sharing your life; when others hear your anecdotes, connections are made that can last a lifetime.

What would YOU do with a Kodak Digital Picture Frame?
Here’s what I would do:
I would use the frame to load my favorite images, for that week or month, set it on my table where my TV is and gaze at the pictures that are streaming from the frame, SD card or through Wi-Fi. Maybe this week, I would like to see nothing but images of the first days when my babies were born. What about next week? I could change the images to reflect our most recent family vacation, or how about gorgeous pictures of nature? This one picture frame holds an endless number of memories flowing all day, every day. My mind is flowing with ideas! What a great tool to watch all those summer pictures!

I’m an amature photographer so I’m always taking pictures, but I don’t have room to display them all. I would use the frame to put pics of fun/happy moments with friends and family, then place the frame on my desk. I would look at the pics whenever I need a break from my work.

I would create my photo therapy by loading it with pics of my youngest granddaughter who’s 13 months from my daughters baby shower to her birth and up to the current moment. Love to just sit and look back at pics of her growing up and the changes in her appearance and size. Keeps me young at heart. My favorite feature is the fact that it is wireless.

My work recently took away our screensaver option, so I miss seeing that rolling display of baby to toddler pics. I would use that frame to recapture that time that seems to pick me up when I need a boost.
Having the frame with tons of pictures is the perfect “therapy” for me
My favorite feature is that it is wifi enabled! Thanks!!

I also love the border changing features!
Id like the frame loaded w pics of my brother SURVIVING cancer!

wow. it has wifi. i would photos of our vacations.
I like the wireless capability. I would have pictures of those important to me so I can always remember why I am doing what I do.
Having one of these would be total photo therapy for both me and DH. Me because I could always look at my friends and family even when they’re not around. And DH because he could keep up to date with sports scores and the weather without having to turn on the TV or computer. What a cool device! Thanks for the contest!

I like the Kodak’s Quick Touch Border.

Photo Therapy is going through and sorting through old pictures and remembering the special moments in our lives. One feature I like about this frame is that you can set the photo elapse time.
I would put a ton of recent pictures of all the grand kids on it and give it to our parents for their anniversary. They’d really enjoy it.
This would be great to display pictures of my Mom who passed away. I would like to use it as a scrolling picture frame to I can see hundreds of pictures displayed daily.
My husband has been talking about purchasing this frame for his desk at the office. I would love to win it for him!

I love that the frame holds 4,000 photos! It can hold the story of your life and you can add to it and update it easily every day. I’m not sure how the news/weather update works, but I could see that being a very useful tool during hurricane season.
I would put all my kid’s pictures on it. I have bunches of them!

My Photo Therapy involves sharing and exchanging photos with my friends from all over the world, all of whom I miss very much and use social networking sites like Facebook and Flickr to stay in touch and keep up with each other’s goings-on in our daily lives. The feature of the W1020 frame that perfectly suits my Photo Therapy is the fact that it allows you to access and view photos from your own and others’ private collections on the Kodak online gallery and sites like Flickr, which is terrific!

This would be great for my grandkids pictures. Thanks
The fact that it has Wi-Fi is a real bonus for me. i would have it display pics of my daughter as a baby and child and it would serve as something that would be Photo Therapy when she makes me crazy as a teenager.

Both of my parents have died in the last few years and it would be great to put all the pictures of happy times together to keep their memory alive for myself and my children. Thanks.
I love that you can add music to your pictures.

I’d load the frame with many different images; not just images of myself, my family and my friends. Some comforting images, some photography images & other excited images.

When I first moved into my home, my dad brought irises from his home and planted them all around mine. We lost him a few years back, and my irises are very special to me, but they only bloom for a short time in spring, and I always take pictures of them. I have had hundreds of blooms at one time, so I have lots of pictures. The rest of the year I miss them, and my dad (tears) so I would use my iris pictures, so I can enjoy them year round. I love the quick touch border feature.
This photo frame is really neat!
My photo therapy would be to add pictures of fond memories
