Ask before saving a shared photo

Check whether both people want a photograph kept before placing it in a shared collection.

Try this

  1. Identify the exact image and where you want to store it. Ask separately about sharing beyond the two of you.
  2. If permission is limited, choose a different image or a written description that avoids the unwanted detail.

A worked example

“May I put this photo in our private album? I won’t post it elsewhere; I just like remembering the picnic.”

An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.

Before you leave it here

Permission to take a picture is not automatically permission to publish it. Revisit the choice if someone later wants the image removed from a shared collection.

This is a voluntary planning exercise. Keep your notes private, adapt the language, and leave any question unanswered. It does not require Ourling or a purchase.
