Albums are generated by efficiently classifying images recorded on a high capacity memory card. Image datasets, having location data representing photography locations thereof attached thereto, are transmitted from a personal computer to an album generation support server. The album generation support server calculates distances between the photography locations of the image datasets and a predetermined reference position, such as the user's home, based on the location data. In cases that the distance exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the image dataset is assumed to have been photographed during a trip, and is classified as an image for a vacation album. In cases that the distance does not exceed the threshold value, the image dataset is assumed to have been photographed in the vicinity of the user's home, and classified as an image for a theme album, the theme being an event that occurs in the vicinity of the user's home.
