Give the Gift of Photos

Why not make a festive photo book for the grandparents as a memento of a happy Christmas spent with the kids, and choose a linen or faux leather cover to add a touch of luxury to your gift.

If you’re making a book for the little ones to enjoy – like a photo book of baby’s first Christmas – opt for Glossy paper to give the pages a wipe-clean, child-friendly finish. Or, if you want to compile your best festive recipes in a photo recipe book, choose True Matte paper to make the text clear and readable.

Whatever kind of Christmas photo book you want to make, our software makes it easy to bring your ideas to life.

Top Tips for Festive Photography

Instead of taking the same photos you take every year, why not get creative with your Christmas photography this festive season? Follow these three top tips and this year’s Christmas album will be your best yet.

Try Bokeh Photography
Fairy lights, tinsel and candles mean that Christmas is the perfect time to try Bokeh photography, and it’s easy to master this technique. Take a look at our top tips to get started and create beautifully blurred photos which sparkle with hazy light.
Shoot in Continuous Mode
Switching your camera to continuous mode is perfect for capturing Christmas morning. From finding the gift under the tree, to peeling back the paper and revealing what’s inside, keep snapping to capture the excitement of opening presents.
Focus on the Details
Photos of your colourful Christmas decorations will make great backgrounds for pages or covers for your photo book. From baubles to a glass of bubbly, you won’t have to look far to find plenty of little festive details to add to your Christmas album.

Create a Unique Christmas Photo Album

If you’re throwing a party to see out the old year and welcome in the new, why not set up your own DIY photo booth? Not only will a homemade photo booth make any New Year’s Eve party more fun, and give you plenty of photos to remember the night by, but it can also be made for next to nothing.

All you need to do is set up a camera and tripod in an empty room or corner, add a backdrop (something silver and sparkly works well for a New Year theme), and provide a box of props for your guests to pose with. By midnight you’ll have enough fun and festive snaps to fill a whole photo book, let alone just one page!

How to Take a Great Group Photo

Christmas is the perfect time to capture a family portrait or pose with your friends in all your finery. Follow our top tips and you too can take great group photos.

Think About Location
Whether in front of the fireplace, beside the Christmas tree, or outside in the wintry landscape, choose the setting for your photograph carefully. If you want to enjoy your photo throughout the year, it’s better to opt for a neutral, non-festive backdrop.
Relax and Have Fun
Relaxed, informal photographs are a much better reflection of your personality and family, so forget formal poses and encourage everyone to have fun. These natural, candid shots are the perfect way to capture the joy of Christmas.
Blur the Background
Make your subjects stand out by blurring the background of your photograph slightly. Use portrait mode on your camera, or choose the largest possible aperture setting whilst keeping everyone in focus. Now the happy faces of your family will be centre stage!
