We must understand that none of us are happy now, due to the pandemic of Covid-19. Our normal life has absolutely stopped for quite a long time. The gloomy picture may be seen in anybody’s face. It feels like happiness is a word from some different planet. But even in this situation, we have to stand strong with each other. We have to wipe the tears off our near and dear ones. We have to bring back the good old days in our lives. And we are sure that we can do that by spreading a counter virus of true and real happiness among everybody.
Every picture tells a story, where time stands still. Photographs play a crucial role in our life as they capture the memories we once made with our close ones. Pictures and photographs are often forgotten in our camera rolls. This time give your digital memories the love and care that they deserve, convert them into a Photobook.
Indian cultures are diverse and colorful, and surely we want to preserve them well. Be it a wedding, a birthday, a trip, or any festive occasion, we are bound to click a million pictures! We live in a moment for only a few hours or sometimes for a few days, but these photographs are with us forever.
In this article, we will be discussing 5 reasons why a photo book is better than a traditional photo album.
Customized
Personalized is the new normal. A photo book can be customized according to the buyer’s imagination. It can be personalized gifts both inside and out. The cover page of the photo book can be designed as per the theme, same goes for the inner pages.
In the case of a photo album, the buyer doesn’t have the option of designing the cover and the inner pages. Alas, their imagination goes in vain. One has to manually draw doodles or write texts. There are no background designs available.
Theme
Usually, the photo books are based on a theme. It could be anything like a birthday, wedding, anniversary, achievements, travel, or something as casual as friendship. The outer cover and the inner pages can be designed as per the theme. Using motifs, texts, quotes, and clip art is only going to make your precious photo book even more interesting. Use different types of color, fonts, and sizes while adding the texts and quotes.
Creativity gets very limited when it comes to photo albums as they cannot be designed on the basis of a theme unless one writes the text, quotes, and motif on their own.
Time Consumption
If you are someone who is quite busy and can’t take out some time from their hectic schedule, then a personalized photo book is the correct option for you. Crafting of a Photo Book need not be that time-consuming; it can be made within a day or even a few hours. All the pictures and texts are handed over to a professional graphic designer who then designs the layout of the book. One doesn’t need to do anything manually except selecting the photos.
Whereas the same luxury might not be available in the case of a photo album. A Photo Album needs to be crafted manually. Once the pages are bound with the outer cover, one has to slide in all the pictures by themselves. This could take a few days. Maintaining a photo album is a lot more painstaking than a photo book.
Quality of the paper
In a photo book, all the pictures and the texts are printed on high-quality matte or glossy finished papers to ensure a premium outcome. Each book can roughly fit around 150-200 pictures. The sizes and shapes of the picture can be adjusted according to the buyer.
Photo album might not give you such a premium experience as it’s made of slip-in plastic with a covering of extra clear PVC film. Due to a plastic covering the pictures often shine brightly under light and are not pleasant to the eyes. The pictures are usually of a standard size.
Size
The photo book comes in 3 patterns, square, landscape, and portrait. The most purchased out of these 3 is landscape. Photo books are available in 2 sizes, A3 and A4. Each book usually consists of 40 pages/20 leaves + 1 front and back cover.
Still, wondering which one is the most suitable for you? Well, it completely depends on your need! If you are someone who likes to maintain a scrapbook or likes to frequently change the pictures, then a photo album is the right choice for you. But if you are someone who likes to be trendy and has the heart to try new things, then we are sure you’ll love a photo book.
A photo book makes a perfect personalized photo gift for many occasions. It can make your travel photos look super exotic, or can make one of the most romantic anniversary gifts. The applications are wider than one can imagine and the beauty of the photo book is only understood when one sees it.
Over the last few years, we humans have seen quite mind-blowing changes in technology. Evolution can be seen all around us, from plate cameras to HD quality DSLR and from old black & white pictures to multi-colored photos. But the most impressive change is the switch to the new photo book from the photo album. Long gone are the days when we used to slide our photographs in a plastic cover, after all our memories are worthy of much better.
Here is the idea to give some superb presentations in the shape of photo albums, which will not only rewind the time back but also bring the beautiful memories back to our lives as fuel to fight back and win over the worst pandemic as well.
