Whether it’s the long-awaited trip of a lifetime or a record of an annual summer vacation, preserve the memories and remember all of the fun by creating a photo book record of your journey. Share a copy with your travel companions or make a thank you book for the parents or friends who hosted you. You may wish to think about including excerpts from travel journals, itineraries, maps, or scans of memorabilia to set the scene along with your photographs. We can make travel books of journeys past by scanning older photos, or incorporate current digital photos and posts to preserve your newest memories.

We can work with all types of materials

Older Vacation Photos

Is your photo album worn out and tattered from years of viewing? Create a sturdy new remake to share. We can scan your photos and create a remake that looks just like the original, or an update that incorporates the old with updated design accents.

Recent Trips

Have you taken a trip and never gotten around to making a book from your photos? We can combine photos from multiple vacationers into one streamlined book, and make copies for each family or individual to have their own version. It’s as easy to print three copies as one!

Compile both

Have you vacationed in the same spot every summer for decades? Do you take a different trip with the same people every year? Surprise everyone with a new compilation of those memories. Our designers can create memorable, long-lasting collections from your collections of photos through the years!


ARRANGE SERVICE

EverPresent’s Photo Book designers love to capture the spirit of your vacation. Make your project stand out with custom coordinated backgrounds and type. Some of our best projects use colors and themes that match the style of your destinations. Consider the following when you plan your project:

  • Who might look at your book and what they’d enjoy
  • What feeling are you trying to recapture? Exciting new frontiers and adventures or a family tradition?
  • Multiple versions of your book means everyone can relive your travels again and again
  • Add captioning and dates! This is a perfect way to remember every detail of where and when you went. Who knows, you may wish to revisit again one day!

Photo Book FAQs

You’re in the right place. Our team of photo scanning technicians can turn your printed photos, slides, negatives and documents into crisp digital images for your project. Take advantage of our photo selection service – we’ll sort through your whole archive to find the best photos so you don’t have to. We also offer advanced editing for aging photos to look their best in your book.

Most of our clients start by having us digitize any photos or documents that aren’t already digital. Meet your consultant and designer to discuss your goals for the project before we begin. We will provide a series of digital drafts for you to review and you may request changes along the way. After you approve the final draft, your book is printed and shipped to you so you can start enjoying it! For a more detailed overview, visit our general Photo Book design page.

Not at all! Wedding invitations, birth certificates, newspaper clippings, scrapbook pages, letters and cards can be unique add-ons to flesh out your story. We can even photograph 3D objects like awards or plaques in our professional studio.

We can digitize those, too. If you’re already sending us photos to scan, it’s a great time to get your VHS tapes and 8mm film reels converted. And since we’re on the subject, Photo Books aren’t your only option for gorgeous custom design projects! Consider a slideshow or video montage to blend photo, movies and music in a unique presentation for your family reunion or gatherings.
