Family holidays are often our favourite childhood memories, even from a young age. Jen and her family travelled to northern Queensland for some fun in the sun, and captured some precious moments with her kids. She's produced a small photobook of some special times to share with family members at Christmas.

Jen took all the photos in this book on her iPhone, which have worked well in this small 15x15 square photo book format. She choose a hard photo cover, embellished with the Sketch theme background.

She also didn't forget the back cover - a small and cute detail!

Joyce loves sweets, photography, Christmas and her family. For Christmas she combined all of these loves to create a Sweet Treats Recipe book as her Christmas gift to her family.

Using the small square format, Joyce set the book up with a family dedication, contents page and page numbers. She ordered several copies of the book to give to delighted family in New Zealand.

Joyce had been planning the book for a little while before Christmas, giving herself some time to not only make and photograph all the recipes in the book, but style them with Christmas accessories and decorations.

Sticking to a consistent use of fonts, colours and layout gives Joyce's book a very professional and polished look.

Because Joyce was planning on ordering several copies of her book, she ordered one copy of the book first to ensure she was completely happy with the layout and alignment of her photos and text.

We think the result is good enough to eat!

Using a simple black linen cover and white backgrounds, the photos in this medium square  photo album are heroed in large format on each page.  The book serves as a momento for a family day spent together during an Autumn Saturday afternoon.

As Kylie explains "Spending time together as family is something to treasure and remember, especially when the kids are still at an age where they're happy to roll around on the ground laughing their heads off!"
