Listen, I’m no saint in the album department. I have several albums on our bookshelf, but COUNTLESS images that still need to be printed. I love them, and I love designing them… but I also know it takes time, something we all seem to run out of! If you need some convincing that it’s time to invest in an album for your special images, here are 3 reasons why I think you should take the plunge and order your photo album right now:
Photo albums are one of the best ways to get the most out of your photography investment. I highly recommend you decorate the walls of your home with your photos – frame those babies and hang them everywhere! With albums, however, you have the opportunity to create art for your home with ALL of your images, not just a select few. A well curated album flows beautifully and tells a story. This is something you can do on your own through third-party websites. However, if you’re able to work with a professional to design your album I highly recommend it! You will end up with a well-curated, cohesive layout that flows nicely. Plus, it will save you loads of time. Photographers who offer this service have an eye for the design, and I personally LOVE the process (so much that I’m currently offering the album design at no cost to my clients)!
Photo albums preserve your memories. The amount of photos that live on our phones and laptops is unsettling. We take a picture, only to have it get lost and forgotten in the cloud. If we don’t do something with our images, we will likely never see them again. Preserving your photos in an album allows you to easily go back and remember those special moments that were worth capturing in the first place.
Photo albums make AMAZING gifts. Mother’s Day, Grandparents Day, Christmas, birthdays… Albums are a great personalized gift that won’t wear out or go out of style. They won’t wither away or stop fitting after a while. Albums are a gift for the person you’re buying it for, and also for future generations of family members. Albums are heirlooms, they will be passed down and treasured for a lifetime and beyond!

So where should a person go to order these albums? I recommend Artifact Uprising and Mpix.com for the lower investment books to store your everyday favorite photos. For special occasions, such as gifts and to display your professional family photos, the high quality lay-flat albums your photographer offers are the way to go. They are beautiful, will last forever, and the quality is unmatched. Plus, the ordering is done for you, which saves you time AND is guaranteed to give you a beautiful design! And that’s it, my 3 reasons to order your photo album right now!
