It’s time to put all those pictures you took on vacations, family get-togethers, weddings, and birthday celebrations to good use. Of course, you have a couple of different options. Your photos can be organised into a typical photo album or placed on Facebook and Instagram. But nothing beats the appeal of making your own physical photo albums if you want to keep things elegant and incredibly functional. Because of what? Photo albums make ideal presents, enable organised photo storage, and help you to save your memories just the way you want.
Organise the pictures
Table of Contents
Planning ahead with your photo organisation can help you enjoy the design process of your photo book. You might discover pictures you forgot you had, and it will save you a tonne of time to spend a few minutes organising your photos. On your smartphone, create a folder and name it something obvious, like “Photo book pictures”, for example.
Select the right images
After you’ve collected your pictures, it’s time to choose which ones to put on display. Include every picture you like at first, then select your favourites according to quality. Remember that when a picture is enlarged and printed in a photo book, it will appear much grainier if it is out of focus.
Diversify your layout
You can better share your story by using variety in your photo book’s page layout since different page layouts can highlight different aspects of images. One photo can take up an entire page, a small photo can be centered in the middle of the page, or several photos can be shown on a single page.
Add useful text
Using photographs is one method to record time. Using words to preserve a memory is another method. There is plenty of room in photo books for you to add text and captions to explain the images or tell a narrative. Dates, place names, stories, quotes from the event, and descriptions can all be added to help you relive your experiences.
Share your story
Your photo book is ultimately just a small part of your life’s narrative. Thus, as you’re gathering and arranging your pictures, try to arrange them in a way that creates a story for your photo book.
Making a captivating photo album is a fun way to record how your style changes over time and share your journey with the world!
