Good Ideas for Digital Photo Books

I love making digital photo books. I never pay anything but shipping. My favorite sites are: Shutterfly, ArtsCow, Snapfish, Paper Coterie, and My Publisher. All of theses companies are always offering free books. Make sure you google search for a coupon code before you place your order because the codes are always out there some where. You just gotta look.

So I like to make photo books by theme. I find that it is easier to complete a project faster.
Here are some of the themes I have done:

1. My First 5 Years

2. Baby's First Year

3. Year in Review

4. Song lyrics going through the whole book:( Let Them Be Little, Baby You Belong)

6. Diaper Days & Bubble Baths (Every pic of your kids in diapers and bath time fun)

7. Family Pictures (watch the family grow through the years)

8. Let's Play Dress Up (All those cute, silly costumes, face paint, halloween)

9. Colors (Pics of the kids with a main color and then a list of the family's favorite colors.)

10. Camping Trips (All trips in one book.)

11. Disneyland (Pictures of 3 different trips)

12. Beach pictures

13. ABC book about me. (Paper Coterie has a great template for this!)

14. We <3 Daddy

15. Pregnant Pics (My husband painted my belly for each pregnancy.)

16. Wedding Book (Its always nice to have more than one perspective at the wedding.)

17. The Story of Baby Jesus (I took pics at the kids kindergarten pageant and turned it into a Christmas treasure.)

18. All About Wheels (Fill it with pictures of bikes, tractor, wheel barrow, strollers, scooters, rollerblades, push cars, wheel chair, wagon, skateboard, sports car.) Lots of great conversation with a little one.

19. Rain (used poem by Lansing Hughes April Rain song. Gathered all my umbrella pics, rain boots, rainbows and added different songs all about rain.

I am sure I will get more photo book ideas over the years. Get started its never too late. And think little steps, theme, something you enjoy doing.
