Photography is my newest hobby, and if you thought I took a lot of photos of my boys before, now that I have my new toy (a dSLR camera and awesome 1.8 lens), you should see my memory discs! And now that summer is here and we are having lots of outdoor fun, I’m taking pictures of everything.
I no longer print photos out like I used to for photos albums, and I’m not really a fan of uploading dozens of photos of my son onto public social networks, so instead, I’ve gotten into the habit of creating photobooks on Shutterfly. Photobooks are a great way to organize and display photos from a specific time or event in our lives, and I have a section of my book shelf where I store all our photobook (about eight so far)…I love taking a peak at them from time to time!
