General Tips and Hints

Give some thought as to the theme you would like your album to be (see suggested themes below)
Choose photos that support the theme of your album.
Vary your photos, choose some candid and some posed photos
Choose photos that represent the personalities of the people involved or express the mood of the occasion
Choose your favorite photos for the feeling they evoke in you, not necessarily for their photographic excellence. Remember, most often a bad photo can be retouched enough to be used within your layout.
Once you decide on which photos you would like to use, group them together by time, place, event, or date
Label each photo with a number on a post-it note. Using the Inventory Sheet detail the photo number along with names, dates, places and the story behind the photo.
Place all photos and Inventory Sheets in a large Ziploc bag, carefully pack in a box. Label the box Fragile-Photos Enclosed-Do Not Bend, and mail to me at:
