Ever After Archives

Not a fairytale.

Just really good photo organising.

(But there is a happy ending.)

A little story about stories

Hi! I'm Chryssius.

Decaf enthusiast.

Chronological queen.

Self-appointed family memory keeper.

And the founder of Ever After Archives.

I come from a family where photography was kind of a big deal. There were always cameras around, film canisters in drawers, and my mum hovering nearby with her trusty Instamatic ready to capture the moment. We even had our own darkroom!

That love of photography? Definitely inherited.

And ever since I was a kid, I’ve been drawn to photo albums - those chunky faux-leather ones with the plastic sleeves and scribbled captions. I’d flip through them for hours, completely captivated. Those albums weren’t just books, they were portals. Time machines. Proof that we were here, and we loved each other.

But it wasn’t until my Dad passed away (a fellow amateur photographer) that I realised just how important those albums really are.

When I found myself pulling together the photos for his memorial, it hit me:

I was the only one who had their collection even remotely organised.

While everyone else was digging through shoeboxes, old laptops and ancient USBs labelled “PHOTOS??”, I had everything I needed - neatly sorted, dated, keyworded, and ready to go. (Yes, really.)

That was my lightbulb moment.

If even our photo-loving family was struggling to manage their memories, what hope did everyone else have?

So I started Ever After Archives - to help families like yours (and mine) get their photo chaos under control.

Whether your collection consists of a box of slides from the ‘60s or 25,000 photos on your camera roll (same, honestly), or anything in between, I can help you sort, save, and protect the stories that matter.

I use archival-quality materials, thoughtful systems, and just the right amount of Type A energy to turn your jumbled memories into something beautiful, practical, and built to last.
