Babies and Photo Books: Two Bundles of Joy

The birth of your children is without doubt one of the best moments of your life, after which you want to enjoy every single minute with your baby watching him/her grow, making the first steps, uttering the first words,… And what better way to document these valuable moments than by creating a photo book featuring your little bundle of joy?

But what to include in such a photo book? How to arrange the photos? What templates would be the ideal? Follow our tips and you will find a way to make the most out of your baby photo book and the pictures of the apple of your eye.

Don’t Strive for Perfection

Few photos are enough

Spending quality time with your little one is always enjoyable, but you don’t have to take pictures of every action he/she takes. One photo per week is more than enough to showcase how much your baby has grown and to document the subtle changes.

And before you ask, you can take multiple photos at the same time and select the best one for your photo book.

No clichéd captions

Consistency on your pictures

Don’t worry, you don’t have to take your pictures from your baby in the exact same clothes on the same locations; you can easily create consistency by simply dressing up your baby in clothes that have the same color or pattern.

The same goes for holiday themed photos, but in those cases you should pick a dress or background that matches the particular holiday.

Choosing the right photo book

If you look around the internet or you check out our reviews, you will find out that almost all photo book builders provide their customers baby themes (sometimes under the “Family” category), which you can still customize any way you want by adding/removing pictures, text boxes, stickers etc. The same goes for the covers, the paper type, the number of pages, photos per page and extra accessories – just be careful not to overwhelm yourself.
