i want to be able to import photo's at a standard size and not have to resize
them to the same size continuously. any help appreciated
 
Import them into table cells of fixed width
or
Import, select and run the following macro (with the 12 adjusted to taste)
from a toolbar button or keyboard shortcut

Sub MyWidth()
Selection.InlineShapes(1).Width = CentimetersToPoints(12)
End Sub

Further to Graham's response, if these truly are *photographs* [raster
images in JPEG, TIFF, etc. format] you're better off not scaling them in a
word processing program. Depending on the resolution & print dimensions
defined in the image file the result will quite likely be a pixilated,
chunky, blocky image or one that is striped or banded.

It's best to process a copy of the image for its intended purpose using a
decent image editing program. Then insert it so that it need not be scaled
much if at all in the document.
