Photos: How many? What size?
Choosing the number and size of your pics is the first step.
Some people say pick just 2-3 photos for your page. I say go for more. I find I take so many pics I can't choose just a few or a great memory sometimes needs more than a pic or two can represent. So if you find the same while trying to choose, I say, GO FOR IT and fill the page. I find the more you have the more fun the memory. |
I have highlighted a few ways to do this on pages "crop stacking", "environmental surroundings", and "contact sheets".
What you choose depends on what your page is saying and the type of book you are creating.
While I love multi pic pages I have made a few pages or books with single photos see page "The picture says it all".
When a scarpbook needs to say more, for example my nieces Annual Auntie Week books, you may need more pics to provide a strong historical record. I want her to be reminded of the whole story not a single snap/moment. So I often use wallet size combined with a few 3x5 or 4x6.
