Photobooks

What is the occasion (father’s day, birthday, christmas, anniversary, etc)

Who are the recipients (husband, children, grandma, parents, etc)

What should I include? Not just pictures, but also clippings or art, letters, etc.

Once you have developed a gameplan, you can start to gather the materials and brainstorm. A thoughtful layout will add a personal touch to your photobook.

Planner Book
