How can I will my photos on dotphoto to my heirs? How can I ensure that my photos are inherited?

We recommend two actions:

1. Add information about your dotphoto account to your will including your name, email address, physical address and dotphoto login. This will help your heirs find your account. If your account is still current, your heirs can present a death certificate and instructions from your will to gain access to your account.

2. Email to inheritance@dotphoto.com

To dotphoto Administration:

I authorize dotphoto to share my photos with my heirs, and to contact my heirs in the event of my demise.

3. Ensure that your email, phone number and address are correct in My Account: https://www.dotphoto.com/preferences.asp
