When you travel or go out with your family, do you tend to take a lot of photos to show to grandma and grandpa? Instead of storing them on a small screen, it would be more enjoyable for you, as well as for them, to view them in a photo book. These would be specially designed for events such as a birthday or a communion. You can then show them whenever you invite friends or family over. They will be delighted to share your moments of happiness with you.


For what occasion should you create a photo book?

Before organizing it, you must first determine for what kind of event you want to create your book. Indeed, if you only want one, you can create it specifically for a particular event. On the other hand, if you want several, you can create some for one or more events, and others to capture beautiful everyday moments.


You can create one to remember a special occasion. When you are invited to a wedding, do you tend to grab your camera as soon as you see the bride in her beautiful dress? With your numerous shots, you can create a book specifically dedicated to this event and these moments. When you invite the newlyweds, whether they are family or friends, you can show them this book to remind them of those unforgettable moments spent together.


Is your child's baptism day fast approaching? This ceremony is quite special, whether religious or not. When it's religious, it signifies your infant's entry into religious life, when it's not, it's simply a good time to celebrate their birth. So it's the perfect occasion to create a photo book.


You can create one to celebrate the end of a beautiful family trip. Indeed, when you travel to another city or country, there are many elements different from home. Whether it's the landscapes, the food, or the monuments, many things can potentially change from one city to another. To be able to show them to your family when you return, you can create a photo book and add your best shots.

You can also create one that gathers all your best moments:

  • the weekly family bowling outing
  • walking the dog in the park with your children
  • your nephew's birthday…

There are wonderful everyday events to capture. This book will decorate your shelf and all guests can take a look at it.


How to organize your photo book for home

There are different techniques to organize your photo book. We share our tips for having the most beautiful photo album. This organization is divided into three main steps not to be overlooked.


Selecting images and choosing the event

First, choose the event for which you will create the book. After making this decision, you can proceed to selecting photos. Choose the best photos, the ones that are clear where you can see the faces of the guests and the newlyweds well. This step is especially important because you won't be able to change the photos after purchase confirmation.


Layout

As for the layout of the images, it should be harmonious to achieve the best possible aesthetic. For this, pay attention to formats, colors, and selection. We recommend first placing the images of the religious ceremony, then the civil marriage, and then the reception. This way, you will have a chronological layout. For the format of the book, you have several dimensions and formats to choose from, square, landscape, portrait... After this step, you can add personalized texts below some photos. You can also personalize the first page with the date of the ceremony and put a nice photo of the newlyweds on the cover.


Decorations

When you have printed the book, you will generally receive it within a few days, depending on the site chosen. On the Flexilivre site, you receive your products within 48 hours. If you want an even more personalized album, you can handwrite little phrases under some photos. You will need a nice black, gold, or silver pen and you can personalize the images with designs or phrases. This option is entirely optional. You can have a very beautiful book without manual customizations.


Now you have all the best tips to create your photo book in the best conditions. Many sites like Flexilivre offer this kind of service at affordable prices. So don't hesitate any longer and create your personalized photo book!
