If you\u2019re looking for a perfect Mother\u2019s Day or Father\u2019s Day <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/personalized-gifts\">personalized gift<\/a>, a book full of memories of mom and dad is the way to go. Be sure to include some of your mother\u2019s sage advice or your father\u2019s silly jokes among the family photos.<\/p>\n<h3>Grandparents<\/h3>\n<p>There is no better photo gift for a grandparent than a photo album that celebrates the bond they share with their grandchildren. While posed portraits are lovely and should make it into your book, be sure to also include candid photos that highlight the true personalities of each member of the family. Incorporate shots of the kids and their grandparents doing activities together, like playing at the park, putting together a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/photo-gifts\/puzzles\">jigsaw puzzle<\/a>, or baking cookies\u2014these are the memories they\u2019ll cherish the most.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/photo-books\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-57282 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/shutterflywpe.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-grandparents.jpg\" alt=\"make your own custom photo book with layflat design\" width=\"1480\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-grandparents.jpg 1480w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-grandparents-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-grandparents-768x519.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-grandparents-1024x692.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-grandparents-800x541.jpg 800w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-grandparents-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-grandparents-36x24.jpg 36w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-grandparents-48x32.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1480px) 100vw, 1480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Children<\/h3>\n<p>Whether your children are still in diapers or they\u2019re graduating college, the time is always right to make your own photo book for your kids. If they\u2019re babies, put together an album that includes your pregnancy, their birth, and their first steps. As they grow and ask about where they came from, you\u2019ll have a book ready to show them their story. If your kids are grown or heading off to college, they\u2019ll adore a book full of your favorite recipes and your best parental advice. Whatever theme you choose, be sure to organize your photos in a way that tells a story.<\/p>\n<h3>Friends<\/h3>\n<p>Friends are some of the most special people in our lives. And the best part about best friends is that you already have a ton of photos of them in your camera roll! That makes it simple to create an album that documents the bond you share. If you and your bestie are foodies, put together a scrapbook style album full of your adventures in cuisine. Don\u2019t forget to include shots of the food! If you\u2019ve been friends since you were young, your buddy will surely cherish an album that chronicles your friendship over the years.<\/p>\n<h3>Wedding Party<\/h3>\n<p>Your wedding party was there with you on your big day, so why not make a photo book for all your attendants as a thank you gift? Be sure to include photos of the events leading up to the wedding, photos of the bridal party getting ready, and group shots of everyone. Unlike your own wedding photo book and guest book, make them the focus of this photo album so they\u2019ll realize how much you appreciated their attendance on that day. A small square <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/photo-books\/premium-books\">premium book<\/a> with a hardcover and layflat pages will make for a gorgeous gift that showcases all of your beautiful wedding day photos.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/photo-books\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-57285 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/shutterflywpe.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-wedding-party.jpg\" alt=\"best quality photo books for weddings and celebrations\" width=\"1480\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-wedding-party.jpg 1480w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-wedding-party-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-wedding-party-768x519.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-wedding-party-1024x692.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-wedding-party-800x541.jpg 800w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-wedding-party-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-wedding-party-36x24.jpg 36w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-wedding-party-48x32.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1480px) 100vw, 1480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Family Reunion<\/h3>\n<p>When your family gets together for a big reunion, commemorate the festivities by creating an album full of fun family photos from the day. Make sure to include a group shot of everyone along with lots of candid photos. Pre-designed idea pages can help inspire your storytelling. After you design it, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/bulkphotobooks\/\">order bulk photo books<\/a> and send one to everyone that attended the party.<\/p>\n<h3>Teams<\/h3>\n<p>Are you the coach of a school sports team or an enthusiastic parent of someone who is involved in a team activity? Show your team spirit by putting together a one-of-a-kind photo book that celebrates a season well played. Include headshots of each member of the team, a group shot, and action photos taken during games and while celebrating big wins. Each member of the team will love flipping through the pages and reliving their fondest memories. A softcover, 8&#215;10 book would be perfect for your team photo book type. Look for pre-designed sports-themed page layouts to make your design a home run.<\/p>\n<h3>Business<\/h3>\n<p>When it comes to personalized books, don\u2019t limit yourself to just photos for friends and family. Creating an album for your business is one way to make your company stand out from the crowd. Whether you\u2019re an artist who needs a professional portfolio, you need creative corporate gifts, or you\u2019re looking for an out-of-the-box, attention-grabbing way to share your company\u2019s information with potential investors, a custom photo book will fit the bill.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/photo-books\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-57281 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/shutterflywpe.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-business.jpg\" alt=\"best portfolio photo books for professional photographers and artists\" width=\"1480\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-business.jpg 1480w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-business-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-business-768x519.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-business-1024x692.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-business-800x541.jpg 800w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-business-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-business-36x24.jpg 36w, https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/tips-for-best-photo-books-business-48x32.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1480px) 100vw, 1480px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a name=\"Printing Your Photo Book\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Printing Your Photo Book<\/h2>\n<p>Choose from a huge variety of layouts, backgrounds, and embellishments to create a photo book you can be proud of. Once you\u2019ve decided on a layout, it\u2019s time to print it. Here are some things to keep in mind when it comes to printing your photo book:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cover:<\/strong> Your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/covers\/\">photo book\u2019s cover<\/a> will make its first impression, and you have lots of options. Will you opt for an easy-to-flip softcover or a durable hardcover book? Or, take your book to the next level with a die-cut cloth, leather, or linen cover.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Binding:<\/strong> Consider how you\u2019ll want your pages to lay when the book is opened. You may decide to upgrade to one of the layflat options, where the pages lay flat when your book is open, allowing for a seamless view across the spread. This is a popular option for travel books, portfolios, and wedding photo books.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Length:<\/strong> The length of your book will depend on how many photos you decide to use. Personalized books include 20 pages as a default, but you can always add more if needed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Size:<\/strong> There is a wide variety of book sizes to choose from when creating your book. What you choose will depend on where it will be stored, how many photos you have to put in it, and personal preference.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pages:<\/strong> You will have the option to choose between glossy or matte printing on the pages of your book.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Copies:<\/strong> How many copies will you want to print? If you will need more than ten, check out bulk photo books to get reduced pricing on multiple copies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Photo books are a wonderful way to keep all your best memories within reach. With this guide and all the theme ideas in mind, now you\u2019re ready to create your own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/photo-books\">photo book<\/a> to keep for yourself or give as a gift.<\/p>\n<h2>Related Resources<\/h2>\n<p>For even more inspiration on how to make the best photo books, make sure to visit our related resources below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/ideas\/make-your-best-personalized-photo-books\/\">Make Your Best Personalized Photo Books<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/ideas\/how-to-design-high-quality-custom-photo-books\/\">Design High-Quality Custom Photo Books<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Create a meaningful photo book to showcase your memories. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":57327,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[71,294],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-57280","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-photo-books","8":"category-photos","9":"entry"},"acf":[],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/ideas.shutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/making-photo-books-thumb.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"Shutterfly Community","author_link":"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/ideas\/author\/shutterfly\/"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v26.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Tips For Making The Best Photo Books | Shutterfly<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Most of us have phone cameras and computers overflowing with photos\u2014but what\u2019s the best way to share them?
