How do you store photos?

I'm so upset, I've accidentally deleted the videos we had of DS as a baby. I use Google photos but we have too many and it's becoming a nightmare. My head is starting to hurt with the sheer volume.

How do you store yours?

Sadly not. I'm so upset. I didn't realise - and this is totally my fault - that if I deleted it from Google photos I delete them from my phone too. I'm so upset. It's videos from 0 to 6 months. I have all the photos.

Photos, I print the best of them and DSs each have an album (I try to label them all for posterity).

Videos are backed up onto CDs (our broadband was so pathetic when DSs were small that they wouldn’t upload to the cloud) or on my laptop…should back those ones up.

Buy an external hard dive and upload them all to it

Are you sure they're not in 'recently deleted'

No they aren't. I managed to save a shed load which were about to be deleted but not these. I feel so bad.
