Very, Very nice work Paul. I think I may have fallen in love with this picture. You are right this would have been a Great Christmas present.

Photo-Books and -calenders. I only started doing it last year, it was an instant success – but maybe I shouldn’t overdo it. The problem is to find a decent printer for everything (i.e. decent price and good quality). I find it hard to judge the quality from the site of a company or from second-hand knowledge… And those things cost too much time and money, so I won’t try and compare a range of services.

I put together an album of photos from my parents 40 years together as a present for their anniversary. Took some time – getting on for an hour per photo with a total of 42 done. Sources were a mixture of prints (old and new), slides & negatives. Of all the gifts given that day, this was the most viewed & discussed. A real tear-jerker, too.

What a great thing you did. I had asked my mom for all of my grandpa’s letters and photos from WWII so that I could scan them and create a file so they will be preserved digitally as well as filing them away in archival safe albums when I’m done. I want to work on those after I redo my site.

I’m working on a calendar for the family on Snapfish right now, as a matter of fact. I just dropped in the last photo. Then I got to thinking of doing a personalized calendar for the local antiques dealer who I’m doing some shooting for. You’re right, the possibilities are endless. One for the grandma’s with photos of the kids might have to be made up as well. Oh, and how about one of shots from your hometown, trips to the Smokies, or a trip you took with a good friend…to meet other new friends in person. hmmmm That one might require a few copies. )

You’ve done a beautiful job with this.

I’m not ready to think about Christmas yet this year. I hope the mood hits soon though because I don’t want it to sneak up on me. I have a few ideas though.
