Print your pictures
One of the most cost-effective ways of creating a personalized photo book is to send your pictures off to your local drugstore. Walgreens and CVS both have photo departments that can have your photos printed and ready within an hour or so. Then, order an inexpensive photo album from Amazon or go to your local store to see what you can find. While you can't add any specific designs and you are limited to the photo albums available to you, you can still rearrange the pictures in any way you'd like and you save some money!
Use a website
Creating your own photo book can be overwhelming if you're not familiar with complicated software like Photoshop. However, there are various websites that are set up to help you create your very own photo book. A few examples are Mixbook and Snapfish. These websites are simple: all you have to do is upload your pictures and customize the book to your own personality and vision. You can change the position of the books, the cover of your book and any designs you'd like to add.
Google Photos
Google Photos is the most basic choice for creating a photo book, and ideal if this is your first attempt. The minimalist layout with white pages allows you to add captions, but there are no embellishments like you’d see on Mixbook or Snapfish. You can, however, make creative layouts by using multiple photos. If you’d like to edit any photos before adding them to your photo book, Google Photos will let you add filters quite easily.
