I started this site about 4 years ago as our wedding website. It was originally a single .php page that returned various wedding information. Eventually, I started to post my digital photos so I made pages for those, too. Over time, I ended up with a pretty robust online gallery that was periodically exported from my iPhoto, which I use to organize all of my photos and albums. At some point, I integrated WordPress as my blogging engine instead of updating the single .php file each time I wanted to post something.
At Sugar, we recently launched our own blogging platform (OnSugar.com) and it had enough cool features that I was willing to make the switch. I didn’t quite know what I was getting myself into, as there was no button to press to bring everything over. So, with sheer brute force, I exported, massaged, and uploaded:
- 15,000 photos
- 450 albums
- 10+ videos (so far)
- 122 blog posts
It’s pretty much all done. The regular visitors know that I haven’t really blogged since Olivia was born 2 years ago and my only post since then announced baby Lucas’ arrival. However, I have been keeping up with the photos, which are now chronicled below.
With mobile blogging and many other cool features, I hope to be posting more often, so stay tuned…
