Today’s featured tech tip….
Turn your best photos into a physical photo book
Do you ever wish you had a physical photo book featuring some of the great pics you’ve taken with your digital camera or smartphone?
Whether it’s a beautiful collection of sunrises and sunsets or a series of photos depicting your child growing up from infant to high school graduate, it’s easy to turn those special photos into an actual photo book that you can hold in your hand and flip through its pages.
Most popular photo storage sites like Shutterfly and Snapfish offer this service, and the books they will create on your behalf are actually high quality products.
Just check the website of the photo storage service you already use to see if they offer the photo book service as an add-on service.
If they don’t (or if you don’t currently use a photo storage service) simply visit Google and search for the term photo book service. You’ll find plenty to choose from.
