I’ve shared here that every year I print out 300 4×6″ prints and slide them into an album. I love knowing that I have real photographs of our most special memories. Well, at the very beginning of senior year I figured out quickly that I was going to need all sorts of pictures of John, at all ages and stages, for a variety of things. As I started to go through 18 years of memories, I added an album to my computer of favorites. By early Spring, I had just about 300. And so, I ordered an album, printed them out and made John a book of real photos – something my boys have few of. Like with the yearbook, I had this out at all of his special gatherings and everyone loved looking through a real photo album. It almost seems like a novelty these days!
Here’s a link to the one I’ve used for many, many years: 4×6″ photo album. It’s now safely ensconced on his bookshelf in his bedroom. 18 years of memories!

A Quick Reminder
My former agency email address has been given to another travel agent, and messages sent there will not reach me.
Please make sure you’re using my current email address: [email protected].
I would love to hear how you’ve organized your photos on the computer! That has been something I’ve failed with all these years!
I have an external drive that just goes by Year > Month. If we did something special in the month like a trip or professional photos, I add that under the month. In January I go through ALLL of them and pick out my favorite 300. I upload those to Shutterfly and get 4×6″ prints made.
I have so enjoyed all of the Senior/Graduation posts! Every detail has been wonderful! As a mom to an upcoming Junior, I’m already tucking away ideas.
Did you have a link to the beautiful glass or acrylic photo collage frame you made?
Thanks for all the wonderful, inspirational ideas you share!
I will dig that up! It was actually the front of an acrylic poster frame that I repurposed for the grad season.
Oh great, thank you!
