Making Memories Last Forever with Shutterfly
I have always been OBSESSED with taking photos and capturing moments even back in the era of disposable cameras. I love going over to my parent’s house to browse though my baby books and high school scrapbooks-those memories are made to last forever because of a photo book. Its so fun to compare myself as a child to my children. But now in the digital age the hard copy photo book is starting to became a thing of the past because they take so long to make-but NOT WITH THIS SECRET I am going to share with you-the Shutterfly Make My Book Service.
It brings me so much joy that we live in the age of technology were 1,000 photos can be taken at just one event making them a permanent part of the history of our families. What is sad is that most of us just load those photos on a Facebook album and that is that-lets put an end to that! Often there is no printing, scrap booking, framing, nothing. {I never even finished our wedding album!} Shutterfly has made a NEW way to make photo books-they do it for you! SCORE! Shutterfly makes it so easy with their Make My Book service-it literally took only minutes out of my day and I received a beautiful product.
I have this new rule as I am ‘adulting’ its called-leave it up to the professionals. Painting, wedding planning, plumbing, installing just about anything–DIYing is not really my thing anymore as my hubby and I pretty much ruin everything we touch. {Sorry babe} I am also a working mom so often crafts and DIYs are much harder as there is NO TIME to do those things. Its worth the time and headache to just pay someone to do it for me. The Shutterfly Make My Book service takes all the headaches away from photo book designing.
We seriously LOVED getting our photo book back and looking at all the wonderful memories we made.
I really enjoy the process of making photo books on Shutterfly, making sure every photograph I like is exactly on the right page-and showing my right angles lol. This crucial process would not only take me hours, it would take me days! I was skeptical, but hopeful to try their new Make My Book service. For only a $9.99 service fee they design the entire book for you-cover to cover-all you do is submit the photos.
The process was almost too easy guys! It took me less than 5 minutes to submit my family photos and select and overall design of the photo book. In a matter of about 24 hours my book preview came back from the Shutterfly designers. It was pretty much perfect! Of course me being a psycho- I didn’t like how I looked in a few photographs. I could easily hit ‘edit’ swap them out and it was as good as ever! So don’t be hesitant if you think you won’t like what they come up with, you can make major changes to your book {even though I don’t think you will.} You can also choose not to buy the book entirely–like you’ll do that–so really there is little risk involved.
From now on I know I personally will always be using the Make My Book photo book service from Shutterfly because the product came out PERFECT and it saved me massive amounts of hours in front of my computer-precious time I could be spending with my family, or sleeping lol. Our photo book looks FAB as a coffee table book!
Have a great time making your photo books with the Make My Book feature from Shutterfly!
