A Good Christmas Gift for a Photographer

An Album Gift for Christmas

gift albumCan you think of a better gift that your friend, relative or loved one will value for years.

Make an album for them – from a simple Print&Bind or Pics Book Junior record of an event, day out or cherished subject (what about their football club?) to a quality OPUS Photo Art album – for that wedding, celebration.  (Why not design your album using dg Foto Art or Fotoslate4?)

Why let your cherished memories rot?

By Daniel Roberts,
OPUSalbums

Our lives are full of memories. In photography we have found a technique for recording them so that we can go back over them ten, twenty, forty years later. In retirement, when one may have more time to reminisce and less strength to go on adventure, what better pastime can there be than going back over our photos and thinking “That was when …” – “I’d forgotten about him – I wonder what’s he doing now..”, or “Wasn’t she an amazing lady”.

That presupposes one thing. – That those photos are readily available and capable of being read.

Old Picture chaosGo back 40years. Chances are that you have some regular photo albums, a few shoe boxes full of photos, canisters of transparencies (for that projector which you cannot get a lamp for) and a few hundred little plastic boxes full of the transparencies that they came back from Kodak in. More? what about those unreadable super-8 films and a pile of VHS video tapes (still OK but for how long?). May I suggest that there is only one of the above media that you are going to look at regularly – the photo album. Why – because they are visible and accessible. The shoeboxes of prints probably come next – a poor second.

Is history repeating itself? The number of photos taken has risen exponentially. Indeed we spend some of our most cherished moments viewing that unforgettable moment through a viewfinder or LCD. Then what? View the thumbnails – select the good ones – and what next?

  • Leave them on the computer. Sort of visible for a time – but awaiting a hard disk failure.
  • Transfer them to CD/DVD – invisible (therefore as inaccessible as the old trannies) – and who knows when your computer will no longer be able to read a CD. (In my loft I have a box full of 5¼” floppy disks full of valuable information).
  • Two album weddingUpload them to Flikr or another on-line service.&nbsp. These services come and go with monotonous regularity. Do you really think they will be round in 40 years time? Those memories – not only inaccessible – but LOST!*
  • So – what’s the answer? Back to the old photo album. And using your computer it’s so much easier.

  • Take your photos, select the best and assemble into a story.
  • Edit the photos if necessary – and lay them out into pages (we recommend Fotoslate4) – and add text.
  • Print them at home on your own inkjet printer (quicker and more flexible than an outside photo book service).
  • You have a neat, accessible permanent book, which you can label and file to look at whenever you like. Quick – easy and effective.
