4 Ideas for a Creative Family Photo Book

When it comes to making a personalised family photo book, be sure to choose a theme, topic or motive so that there is something to tie the whole book together. By choosing a theme, it can help give you a basic framework on how to start your personalised photo book and allow you to put together something cohesive without restricting your creative freedom. 

If you can’t seem to work out a theme, here are 4 creative family photo book ideas that you can try. 

Year End Review

The Year End Review is a photo book that can be created annually. The contents of the book may include all the highlights of your year; such as:

  • Birthdays
  • Reunions
  • Vacations
  • Renovations
  • First day at school
  • Graduations, 

And more (as  2020/2021 can attest – a lot can happen in just a year. 

With almost everyone in possession of a smartphone, all of these moments have most definitely been caught on camera and stored in the phone’s gallery. 

Maybe you won’t have enough photos to create a photo book that’s fully dedicated to one specific event, therefore a year end photo book that is a collection of all these highlights would be perfect so that you don’t forget any of your good memories. 

By Kids, For Kids

When it comes to imagination, there’s no beating kids. They have such a unique point of view and the stories that they can come up with when looking at something mundane (like a shadow on the wall, an interesting leaf or the view from under the table) are always so bizarre but engaging! 

If you’re looking for a fun way to bond with your kids and create a memorable photo book at the same time, why not let them take control of the camera and see things from their perspective. Your kids will have a blast documenting their adventures and you’ll be able to have a better understanding of their likes, dislikes and thought process.

Colour Coded

If you want to put a creative twist to your family photo book, why not personalise a photo book based on a particular colour (and its many hues). You can even make it a series and call it something neat like the ‘Colour Collection’. Each book can feature different moments from different timelines (your grandparents, your own childhood or even photos of your kids). The best part is, the photos don’t have to be in any particular order. The main point of the book is to simply organise photos of your moments by their colour.

It’s a great way to practice your photography and photo editing skills as well as leaving you with a photo book full of your favorite shades.

Animal Attraction

Who says that your pets are not part of the family? Whether your pet is a dog, cat, bird, fish or something completely exotic, your animal companion deserves to have their share of the spotlight with their very own photo book. We’re sure that if you are a pet owner, you definitely have a little dedicated folder on your phone that is filled with nothing but their adorable photos. 

If you’re really extra, you might have even opened up an Instagram account for your pet (*cough@cobythecatcough*). But at Pixajoy, we’re forever in favour of prints! Since digital photos can easily be erased or lost due to viruses, technical breakdowns or a website shutting down/changing their policies (like Friendster, MySpace and photo bucket), it’s always more reassuring to have a physical copy of your images. 

Plus, as pets grow much faster than people, being able to physically look through a photo book of your pets and see how much they’ve grown will easily melt your heart and would also make a good gift to family members.
