Get those photos out of the cloud and into your life with a gorgeous album
What is the point of investing in professional photos of your newborn if they’re going to be stuck on your phone, or in the “cloud”? Print your baby’s photos for not only your sake, but for theirs.
Taking the extra step of creating a durable, long-lasting photo album will ensure these memories will never be lost. When your kids get older, they’ll love flipping through these tangible archives of their first days.
A Tangible Way to Connect to Childhood
Even though my kids are on their own now, one of their favorite activities when they come home is to look through the photo albums. Nothing brings back the warm fuzzies of their baby-hoods more than gathering around to look at photos of their very first days.
Yes, on the outside they’ve changed A LOT. But they’re still the same as when they were teeny-tiny in many ways. Like the way still sleep with hands by the face, or they still look like grandpa (even though they have hair now). These albums will soon be theirs so they can show their story to their own kids.
Printed photo albums have lots of benefits: Research shows that displaying photos of the family has a positive effect on psychological well-being, especially when it comes to children. In one study, family photos raised self-esteem. Another report found that it raised confidence and kids had a better self-image than those in photo-less households.
