Unlike traditional photo albums and photo scrapbooks, photo books can be easily replicated create one and if you’re pleased with it order additional copies.

Not all pages have to include photos; including text will allow the book to tell its own story.

Family History Book Ideas

Create a book of your own personal history. Include your baby pictures and childhood stories.

Interview an ageing relative. Work with them to create the book. Have them write a personal note, include this in the book (scan it or photograph it).

Gather your old family photos and slides and have us digitise them then create a family heirloom to share with your own family. Purchase additional copies for other family members. Give as gifts.

Include personal histories, family stories, and genealogical data in the book.Include photographs or scans of personal possessions, handwriting, certificates, letters, and other important documents. These will all make the book more personal.

How to add text? 

  • Scan or photograph handwritten notes
  • Type in photo editing program and save as jpeg
  • Type in MS Publisher and save as jpeg
  • Type directly onto photo book pages can be slow as our kiosks are touch screen and can only be touched in one place at a time

How do you create this keepsake?

  •  Sort out your photos and memorabilia and bring in to us
  • We will digitise any non-digital photos.
  • We will show you how easy it is to create your own book on our kiosks.
  • We then print the book on-site. It will be ready in one-hour or less.    

The kiosk allows you to sort your images by date taken or by file number (useful when you want to specify the order).

To save time pre-organise your photos into the order you want them to appear in the book by copying your selected photos into a new folder then renumber the copies using three digits (e.g. 001.jpg not 1.jpg) and save to a USB Key. When you load the images into the HP Kiosk select sort by file name and hey presto they will be in the order you want them, you can still move them about if you change your mind, this will save you a lot of time.
