Make it a Wedding Planner, Vacation Planner, School Year Calendar and Organizer
No need to follow the traditional calendar year when you create a personal photo day planner on Lifephoto.com. Begin your year with any important date — or start it a year ahead of an important date. Wedding day planners make wonderful gifts for the bride-to-be! Fill your planner with memorable photos.
- Wedding Day. How cool to give your fiance, daughter or future daughter-in-law a day planner that begins on the wedding day! Or a daily planner for the wedding that begins one year before the wedding!
- Back-to-School Planner. Begin your daily photo planner in July or August and build it around the important dates of the school year. Great gift for teachers. Handy for moms and high school or college students.
- Valentine’s Day. How about giving your sweetheart a custom day planner that begins on Valentine’s Day — with photos of fun times together throughout!
- Birthday. How appropriate to give someone a photo day planner that begins on the date they were born. Show them how important that day was to both of you!
- Anniversary. Even though you’ve been married awhile, give your spouse a photo day planner of your lives together — that begins on the date your were married. How romantic!
A custom day planner is easy and quick to make on lifephoto.com.
Add notes on special dates, reminders, personal messages of love. Be creative. Have fun. Photo day planners are available in two sizes with 13 to 54 images — you decide. That special person will love it! Great for Christmas gifts, too!
Start your Lifephoto daily planner any month of the year. Base it on your life’s activities.
Think a calendar or day planner has to begin on January 1? Not at all. Often it makes more sense to structure it based on your lifestyle.
And don’t forget, you can include all the photos you love on your day planner pages.
Teachers, Students and Moms
Your lifestyle year most likely begins in August. Start your day planner on August 1 and be sure to include all the important dates you’ll need to remember throughout the year: holidays, teacher’s convention, field trips, spring break, last day of school!
Brides-to-Be, Mothers of the Bride
The biggest day of your life (or your daughter’s life) begins on the wedding day. Two suggestions:
- Start your day planner a full year before the wedding month. Get all the important dates, appointments and decision dates loaded into your pages.
- Start a day planner for the bride beginning with her wedding month.

Some tips for making a great Recipe Photo Book!
You’ve got the idea that it would be fun to make a recipe book. 
One that’s filled with photos of the finished dishes. Or maybe including photos of the cooking or baking process. Who’s recipes will you use? How will you print and share the finished recipe book? Here are some tips for planning your book and for taking great food photos, as well.
Planning a Recipe Photo Book
Decide on a theme:
- Mom’s Home Cooking
- Grandma’s Famous Cakes
- Cookies That Kids Can Bake
- A Salute to the Great Cooks in My Family
Whatever your theme, be sure you can offer accurate recipes with easy-to-follow directions. Help your readers be successful in making those great dishes! So that means you’ll need to proofread your recipes and then have someone else proof again just to be sure.
Take lots of photos:
Every recipe book is better when it includes photos of the finished dish. Here is a post that will give you some guidelines for taking those photos.
But why not take photos of the cooking process and/or the ingredients the reader will have to assemble before starting? Ree Drummond of The Pioneer Woman does a terrific job of photographing the steps to her recipes. If you make one of her dishes, it is so helpful to have those photos to guide you along the way. Check out her site for examples of how you might do the same thing in your recipe book. By the way, I’ve made some of her recipes and they are always terrific!
Start Making Your Recipe Book Online
Begin by uploading your photos to your own photo folder on Lifephoto.com. If you register, your photo folders and projects remain there for you to return to as often as you wish. So you can make your book as you have time.
If you want your actual recipes to have a special look or design, you might consider putting them into a PhotoShop file and uploading your recipes as .jpegs. Then you can easily place them just like you would a photo. But you do have the option of typing them right on to the photo book page.
A Personal Photo Book Really Says “I Love You”
Planning to ask her to marry you on Valentine’s Day?
Here’s a terrific idea that shows your love in photos and personal messages as photo captions.
Fast. Easy. Inexpensive. Incredibly Thoughtful.
Simply upload your favorite photos of her that recall all the great times you have shared together. Add some photos of both of you having fun.
