17 Custom Photo Book Ideas

Our all time family favorite is our photo album books! Every time we get one in the mail we all become consumed with it…there is something about a printed picture. Something that will be passed down for generations to come, not lost on a computer in some digital file, who knows where!

I have our photo books sitting on our coffee table in our home and almost everyone that comes into our home for a visit will pick them up and look through them. I love this!

I have made these for all of our family vacations, our wedding, our yearly albums, our little E’s birth, my Instagram pictures, my yearly photo project books (to see more ideas on what kind of photo projects got here) for Christmas gifts…IF YOU WANT TO SCORE BIG with grandmothers this is THE PERFECT GIFT!!!!!!

Photo books don’t have to be time consuming or strenuous, even though you may feel like it! Sometimes it can feel overwhelming but with Shutterfly they help you save time and will actually curate your professional quality book for you!!! This is the real deal friends!!! If designing your album seems a bit much you can pay them a one time design fee of $9.99, only if you order your finished photo book. If you decide not to order you don’t pay!!
