organize and enjoy your memories
“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.”
– Henry David Thoreau
When I look at pictures of our family lately…
I see matching eyes.
I see pieces of us.
I see grandparents and history.
I see similarities on the outside.
I see windows to wonderful differences inside each of us.
I see three loving people willing to humor their goofy wife & mom.
Be sure to check out Julyssa Schenk Photography to see what her family is up to this month.
One of my favorite things to include in birthday photo books are special notes written by the party guests. It is a great way to blend the photos with meaningful words to tell the story of the event. Whether it is a sweet note from an old friend…
or a message that reminds you of a fun night…
taking the time to do a little advance planning is always worth it. Simply scan the note and save it as a JPEG file. No scanner? No problem – snap a photo with your phone and call it a day. As you design your book, incorporate your note just as you would your other photos.
