Everyone loves to receive memorable and pleasant gifts, and gifts made with love with their own hands are always of special value. In order for a handmade gift to be not only beautiful, but also useful and interesting for the person being gifted, you can apply all your creativity to its creation. For example, a gift in the form of a self-made photo book will be a great way to please and surprise a loved one. In this article we will tell you how to make an author's photo book about a wedding, the birth of a child, or any other memorable event.
Instructions
Step 1
A photobook is a combination of a photo album with an unusual and original author's design and a certain thematic story unfolding on its pages. Plus, the photos in the photobook are printed on the pages, making it a more creative and personalized gift than a simple photobook. In order to create a photobook and print it in paper version, you will need a selection of the necessary photos in jpeg format in the best quality and high resolution, as well as Adobe Photoshop for photo correction.
Step 2
The easiest way is to find a program on the Internet in which you can typeset the pages of a photobook and create its design layout. Such programs, as a rule, have a lot of book design templates, and using them, you will save your time; but by placing photos in the order you personally formed and making out the book according to your own sketches, you will make it more individual and exclusive.
Step 3
Choose the number and size of pages of the future book, as well as the number and size of uploaded photos, previously, if necessary, corrected in Photoshop.
Step 4
Having already loaded the photos into the program for creating a photobook, add frames, prepared patterns, ornaments and images to them, and also set a suitable background for each page of the book.
Step 5
Make original captions to your photos in a beautiful font, add poems and congratulations. After the work on the layout is finished, arrange the cover and review all the pages of the layout for errors, and then save the book.
Step 6
In any rapid printing center, you can print your book both in a more modest version and in a small size, as well as in a gift version with a hard cover.
