By now my regular blog readers know that I like printing my photos. I don’t like the idea of them living only digitally, and there’s something so special about printing them in some way.
For the last few years, I’ve been printing A3 calendars for us, my parents, and my brother’s family. Until this year, the calendars have only included photos of the kids. I print it in such a way, that if it’s a child’s birthday in a particular month, then the photo for that month, is of that person. And December’s photo is always of the 3 kids at the Christmas tree.
This year was a little tricky though, because I’ve been really bad in the last year, and haven’t taken many photos when we’ve had family gettogethers, so I had almost no photos of Erin!
Therefore the plan had to change.
This year, I included landscape photos from our trips last year… and I think it’s worked out brilliantly! Â In fact, I think I want to print a few of the landscapes and frame them for our house.
This is what the calendar looks like for the year…
It arrived from the printers today, and I’m thrilled with it!
I know, I know, yes, it’s almost the end of January, but hey, it’s done 🙂
Now I need to design and print the photobook that I print every year!
Do you print books with your photos? I must tell you that the kids absolutely love paging through them! It’s so worth the time and effort.
Love your March photo!
I print photos, but in good old-fashioned albums. I will never do photo books again – they drive me dilly. Unless there’s just one photo per page, then again I’ll obsess over those too probably.
I’ve got my album formatting right now. One photo per page or blocks of 4 or 9… That’s it. No weird shapes and every image on a page is the same size
Stunning!!!! And so special too!!
Stunning!!! I love the format and those landscape pictures are beautiful.
I don’t print enough pictures but I’ve started doing photo book using shutterfly which I love as it is such an easy site to use only schlep is having to find someone coming from the us to bring it. My mom used to make me print pictures for her
I always print loads of photos. Each child has their own album and I have a family album and I do photo books as gifts to grand parents. My kids love their albums. I do want to do more photo books though I think. Your landscape photos are stunning.
I’m sorry to see January coming to an end .. love the photo from Kuilfontein. Thanks my girl, love the calendar as usual .. it’s so special xxx
The calendar is gorgeous!
