3×3 Accordion Albums (Brag Books)

I just had to share these little gems.  They are the perfect little brag book – all 3×3 inches of them.  I discovered these tiny treasures from the lab that I use and have wanted to order a set to use as a sample, but I didn’t want the boring “load your photos side-by-side” type of album.  I wanted a cute, fun design and layout, so I searched the web.  There are some talented album template designers out there, but I wasn’t in a position to purchase design templates just yet.  So, I learned how to make my own.  I created the templates in photoshop and here’s the outcome.

When I order these books, they come in a set of 3, so I think this will be the perfect stocking stuffer for the Grandmas this year.  One grandma made the tutus and the photos used were taken at the other grandma’s house.  Perfecto!!

I also think they will make the perfect custom addition to my clients portrait packages!  The front and back covers can be canvas or faux-leather and come in a variety of colors.  I think these are my new favorite little photo item.

Fellow photographers, please drop me a comment if you’d like to have these backgrounds.  The front side says “dance” and the back says “twirl”.  They are layered psd files so you can just drop your own photos in.  The templates are designed according to Miller’s Lab specs.
