Indesign Image/Text Formatting

Hi everyone! I have a tricky Indesign query thats hard to eplain, but I'll do the best I can. Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have to create a catalogue basically comprising of a heap of mug shots and names & info for each one. The problem is I don't know yet what order they have to go in, and want to be able to re-arrange them eailisy. EG: If I wanted to move one from the bottom of the page back to the top, the rest would automatically re-arrange down the page and even onto the next page if possible, image & text. The pages would contain 30 mugshots (5 across, 6 down).

Any ideas??

Simply place the photos In the text flow itself (inside the text frame) so it moves along with the text flow. To do this, it's easier to place and size the image first, then cut the entire graphic box and then place your cursur in the text where you want the picture to appear and then paste. Now the image becomes part of the text and flows from text box to text box, page to page.
