As I’ve been chatting with people about their New Year’s hopes and resolutions, one of the most common ones that has been coming up is getting organized: especially with photos! I love how easy it is to capture special moments every day with our phones. And as a Colorado Springs photographer, I am a huge believer in the importance of documenting and treasuring life’s memories. But part of treasuring those memories is making sure they’re accessible. My favorite way to do that is with heirloom photo albums!
The Importance of Heirloom Photo Albums
Photo albums are such a lovely way to collect your family’s cherished memories throughout the year. My favorite thing about photo albums? They get those beautiful images off the computer and turn them into a beautiful piece of artwork that is easy to flip through and look at every day!
There’s nothing wrong with having photos on the computer. In fact, it’s a great idea to make sure that those memories are backed up digitally so you can access them anywhere and keep them safe from physical damage and accidents. But I truly believe the best way to enjoy those images is if you have a beautiful and meticulously creative photo album on your bookshelf or coffee table that you can easily look through to brighten your day!
Top Reasons to Create a Photo Album for Your Memories
Photo albums, even more than a beautiful piece of wall art or collection of digital images, tell a story! They are a reminder of your joyful and most cherished memories, especially for a particular event or time period!
Photo albums make beautiful gifts for loved ones. I can’t imagine a more meaningful gift than an album that records a special time of life or a collection of memories with a close friend or loved one!
As a photographer, I want to ensure that your memories are timeless and last forever! Each of my albums is beautifully crafted and designed to stand the test of time, so they truly can become heirlooms that you can pass down to your children as part of your legacy.
Photo albums are the best way to take a walk down memory lane. There’s something so nostalgic about prints! Flipping through an album gives you a warm fuzzy feeling that scrolling through your camera roll just can’t replicate.
Albums are incredibly customizable. You can include exactly the photos you want and design the album in such a way that it perfectly reflects your style and values. (Learn more on my album page.)
Are Albums Included with a Photo Session?
Some of my wedding photography packages do include a 10×10 album! However, for portrait sessions or other packages that don’t include an album, you still have the option to purchase as many as you like with my a la carte options! Just be sure to ask me for more information!
I highly recommend designing your album with your Photographer. Together, we can create a gorgeous heirloom that is just right for you, and your unique and beautiful story!
