Photo collections are one of the promising sources to tell story of life in this digital era. In this paper we present our work on organizing photos of a lifetime by exploiting semantic annotations.

Semantics of each dimension are semi-automatically annotated following the ontology for personal information. The story telling is done by exploiting these
