For me and now by extension the missus and kids: An organised chaos of diverse storage, for docs and photos. On a NAS, Google Docs, Dropbox, Flickr, variuos other local photo apps now offline (coppermine etc). All newer photos are on icloud though also backed up offline. A lot of older paper documents in physical folders, some organised but most just bungled together. Old physical photos are hopefully somewhere in the attic.
Most recent years all letters are however photographed on a phone and put into relevant shared photoalbums, then shredded. Albums by year and category e.g. "School docs", "Kids School work", "kids art", bills, statements, manuals and instructions, receipts, etc. Still have a big chore to go through all the old folders to scan and shred so we can really be paperless.
A few times I have had to dig out old bank statements or proof of address on a recent bill. However they all just wanted a photo of it, so storing it digitally was fine.
