“Christie has helped me in several seasons of life. First, to pre-sort my parents’ photos and memorabilia, and then to organize my computer files.  She is sooo very patient, low-key, non-judgmental, has great ideas and resources, and is an all-around delight.  I’ll be calling her again!”

Diane Ryan

“Christie is great. I highly recommend her for the photo stuff.  I didn’t realize what a HUGE project this was going to be and she makes it relatively painless.  Plus, she is really sweet. Highly recommend.”

Dene Feldman

“A year ago I started the daunting task of archiving and preserving our family’s legacy of slides (2,300 of them, 8mm, Reel-to Reel, VHS, AND a million pictures, including those of my mother’s and grandmother’s that I acquired (loose and in albums).  This was monstrous project!! I ended up hiring one of my friends to help me with it. It was too much for me to do alone and this was what she does for a living.  And she’s FANTASTIC at it!!

Not only did she scan everything (not just pictures, but blueprints, diplomas, some kids projects), but she also organized it in boxes chronologically… AND saved them all in Dropbox for me to have digitally. She also included a type written table of contents so I can find things easily when needed.

This is the final result of all that work! And I couldn’t be happier. I’m now able to access every album/picture from my phone which is incredible.

This was a labor of love done for my children so that they can pass this on to their children.

Thank you Memorable Legacy for doing an amazing job!! You’re the absolute BEST!!!”

“Christie helped me digitize and organize the photos from dozens of family albums I inherited from my mother. As we sorted through several thousand photos, Christie was patient and productive. She was extremely knowledgeable and professional. Christie got the job done swiftly and it was very pleasant to spend the hours working with her. Now I can find any family photo in an instant! Christie’s services are outstanding and I highly recommend her. She is an expert in her field!”

“I have been a client of Christie Johnson’s for over a year now and I have to tell you she is absolutely amazing! She helped me put together patient testimonials in shadow boxes (which turned out beautifully), as well as helped organize the storage rooms that were in complete chaos. The way she was able to visualize the BIG picture and organize everything in a timely manner truly impressed me and my office staff. Thank you so much for all you do!”

“Christie Johnson makes getting organized fun and easy. I was a bit apprehensive to let Christie get a good look at my office space. Being the daughter of a man who has a sign on his desk stating, “A clean uncluttered desk is the sign of a sick mind” it is easy for me to slip into the “pile syndrome”. Christie was gentle and encouraged me to organize my desk and surroundings using her well thought out organizing rules. I occasionally lapse into becoming my father’s daughter but I always have the tools that Christie shared with me and if I ever let it go too long, I have her phone number firmly implanted in my cell phone!”

“Due to my home’s water pipe damage, she fixed the problems with my water damaged photo albums. She was excellent and I would highly recommend her.”

Veronica Monique

“Christie was very pleasant to be with and is a sweet person. Plus, she knew how to get the job done and to take away my anxiety over the project. Christie was wonderful, she was calm and helpful. To me, it was an overwhelming project and I dreaded doing it but instead, I looked forward to her coming and helping me. She made it FUN!”

Dene Feldman

“Christie took my disorganized portfolio and turned it into the beautiful well-organized representation of my talents that it should be. My clients can easily see the breadth of my abilities and I can add to my portfolio on my own as Christie explained the process and created a user-friendly product for me!”

“Christie helped make a dreaded picture project much more fun. The organizing of pictures from heavy old 1980’s albums to archival photo boxes was overwhelming, she knew how to get them out without ruining them and also helped me organize them in little bins. I am happy to know my pics are all scanned and on disks, makes them easier to see and I know that I have a backup in case of fire or water damage. She was so great I had her help me with my closet organizing as well. I highly recommend Christie and her expertise in organizing all things!”

Genealogy Organizing

“My father LOVED the books.
He is obsessed with the letters.
Decided to come to LA in December to continue reading.
My father was crying when he was reading those letters. He could not get over how they were organized, and in the books, could not get over the whole thing. Loved the books on his dad and his childhood. It made me realize how amazing it is that we’ve done this! Thank you so much.”

“My dad said my room looks amazing. (And that’s a very high compliment coming from him) my mom also came upstairs to see it. They’re both proud and happy.”

“Christie organized the desk junk drawer so well that it is no longer called the ‘Junk Drawer.'”

Prudy Nissen

“I thought I was a great organizer, but I realized that I was not making the time to do it. Christie helped me stay focused and clear multiple stacks of papers in a limited time. A clean house helps you have a clean mind. I have more time to spend with my family. Christie was so easy to work with and had a true genuine care to help me get rid of my clutter. She has also helped my friends with their homes and they loved it!”

Sarah Phillips

“Christie is a highly effective Professional Organizer, that with her vast knowledge of systems, she can tailor her home or office organizing skills to each individual that she helps. Christie made organizing my office very fun and helped me understand systems so that I could move forward on my own, and at my own pace as I work through my home and home office. Christie is fun to be around and easy to work with.”

Julie Scher Molinare

“Christie is efficient, fast and has a very nice way of getting one to discard or donate “crap” that’s been in the closet/garage, etc. without being offensive. I was amazed at how easily she got me to add unneeded things to the donate bag. And she’s got a great personality to boot. Joy to work with. Highly recommend.”

Jennifer Polzin

Speaking

“I was fortunate to attend Christie Johnson’s presentation at the Association of Personal Photo Organizers (APPO) Conference. She presented her approach to the “Client Assessment” effort. Christie provided a concise and focused approach to accomplishing this critical step of Client Service. She presented the material in a straight forward and logical manner and made it easy for the audience to follow and absorb. Christie shared her approach to the client assessment effort which highlights her professionalism and business acumen. In the course of her presentation, Christie illustrated her passion and commitment to the photo organizing profession and as a result clearly established herself as a leader in the area.”

“Thank you for your informative call the other night. You pulled together organizing and photos, which is so prevalent working with my regular clients. Since I came home from the APPO conference, I wanted to organize all the brochures and pamphlets handed out, just as you showed in the slide. Since I’m just beginning to get into the photo organizing, the vendors offer so much. You mentioned you have a chart of each vendor, the cost, and discount they offer.”
