– A picture truly is worth a thousand
words, so it’s no surprise that at many
special occasions we say “cheese” to a
blur of flashes. But what happens then?
If your pictures end up staying in the
film container or on your camera’s
memory card, they don’t do you much
good.
There are several easy options for
people to enjoy the long lasting
memories that photographs can provide.
First rule -- taking photos is only half
the work, to finish and get full
enjoyment, you need to get the film
developed. With digital cameras, be sure
to label photos when saving to a disc or
computer. Once saved, digital photos can
be developed online or at your local
discount store.
Step one is a great start, but many of
us are guilty of letting those photos
gather dust in a box or sit on the
computer never to be viewed again. Why
not take the extra step and organize
them in a presentable way to keep on a
bookshelf, coffee table or even to bring
to work to share with friends? There are
options today that make this easier than
ever.
Some choose to keep photos only on their
computer. If this is the case, make sure
to name them appropriately so when you
come back, you know what the picture is.
This includes location, date and people.
Try putting photos into a slideshow via
your computer’s software system so you
can click through each series.
For most, viewing a picture on a
computer is nothing compared to seeing
it in hand. Affordable photo albums are
available at many stores and come in
many shapes and sizes. Pick one that is
appropriate for your photos and start
organizing in the order of your choice.
Add personal touches like printing
labels or adding decorative stickers.
If this still seems like a hassle,
you’re not alone. Whether you’re a bride
longing for a beautiful album instead of
a DVD full of photos from the big day or
someone who simply wants a classy and
memorable gift to give someone you care
about, Together Book is an easy way to
create stylish photo albums.
Here’s how it works: You send the
company your physical photos and choose
a cover color and optional stamping and
slipcase and they do the work for you.
Books are available in 4 by 6-inch and 5
by 7-inch sizes, hold up to 100 photos
and start at $29.99. Each book is
customized with care to order. The
patent-pending binding process will
preserve photos for lifetimes to come.
“I started Together Book because I was
looking for a proofing product for my
wedding clients. I needed a high-end way
of presenting wedding proofs, and I did
not like the plastic-sleeved books,”
says Phyllis Lane, professional
journalism, fashion and wedding
photographer, and founder of Together
Book. “We worked to perfect the binding
process to create a product that would
hold together for a lifetime and lay
open like a book.”
Creating photo albums is a joy for every
occasion, from school years, to
graduation, weddings, anniversaries,
vacations and more. Those special
memories will be enhanced and bring your
family together through the timelessness
of a quality photo album.
A picture can speak multitudes but says
nothing when stuck in a box or on the
computer. Easily bring those pictures to
life through a Together Book photo
album. Visit www.togetherbook.com, or
