Taking photos is something that I enjoy doing even though I have no professional training for it. When I was a kid, we never had a camera nor photos of us so I told myself that if ever I would have kids of my own, I will definitely take photos of every moment so that they will have reference to how they look like, what did we do as family, and all that sort of family stuff. Within 12 years, I have taken thousands of photos of my kids and compiled them in photo albums. I know that digital is the new thing now in storing photos but I still order prints once in a while when I find good deals online because it is something that the kids can have when they have their own family.
I have some new printed ones that I have to arrange in albums but I ran out of albums so I will be working on that soon.
I find an interesting concept today in ordering your photos. You know that monthly subscription that you can do with food, beauty products, lingerie, and other things, well there is one for photos too. It is called the Photo Fairy. Life gets in the way sometimes and you keep forgetting to order your photos. So even though, you already planned to have some photo printed, it is not happening because you got busy and forgot about it. Well, not anymore if you sign up at https://www.phtofy.com. They will connect to your Facebook, pick your best photos and print them to send to you. You will never have to forget them again as it will be delivered to you monthly. Pretty cool isn't it? It cost $5 for monthly subscription. You get 10 photos for that and $.50 cents for additional ones. You can check out more of the details by visiting the link.
That is actually an awesome idea, I honestly do not have any photos in print and there are times I want the real thing just checking on my phone or facebook. I love this idea of a photo sub.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful family you have! This is an easy way to get your photos. Thanks for sharing. I need to catch up on my photo books too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool idea! I take way too many photos to keep up, print or do anything with. My wallet just wouldn't be happy. This is a nest concept I will check it out.
ReplyDeleteMy Hubs keeps saying that this generation is going to end up with not pictures. I agree... this is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool! I have a bazillion pictures floating around out there, and the fact that this picks the best ones is amazing.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I like this idea! I was very diligent about printing photos the first 12 months after my daughter was born, but as you mention we get busy and now I am behind. I still have my childhood albums and would love for my toddler to look back at physical photos when she's an adult too. I wish this service would connect with Flickr though, as I don't upload many pictures to FB anymore. Still a great idea, nonetheless! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds really awesome, you have such a beautiful family; I should take more family pictures myself!
ReplyDeletePhotofairy sounds pretty great. I know I have a ton of pictures I've been meaning to use. I'll have to check it out.
ReplyDeletePhoto Fairy sounds like a great idea. I did not know there was a photo subscription box. I will have to check this out.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember the last time I printed out pictures! I really need to get around to doing it...it's just not the same thing looking at them on the computer!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea! I'm always taking photos, so I could use something like this. You have a beautiful family!
ReplyDeleteI'm always on the lookout for great photo editing software, great info!!
ReplyDeleteI totlly need to check this out. Sounds like a great program!
ReplyDeleteThis is something I definitely need in my life, it is so cool! One thing I do a lot of is take pictures. I'm always behind!
ReplyDeleteI never heard of this before but it looks like something that could be very useful!
ReplyDeleteI need to try this. I have so many photos that are just sitting on my phone.
ReplyDeleteI love taking photos too! I've taken SO many since my boys were born - it's such a passion!
ReplyDeleteI have not printed pictures out in o long, but I have a ton that I would like to. This $5 fee is so affordable, just about anyone could take part in it.
ReplyDeleteI could use something like the Photo Fairy because I am always taking pictures. I really want to put them in albums.
ReplyDeleteSo many people these days keep their photos online.Finding time to print them off is tough I know. This is a great service that a lot of people will take advantage of!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea and sounds like a really great service. I will have to try it.
ReplyDeletePrinted photos seems like such a forgotten concept to me. Everything I do with my photos is based solely online, I only print one or two when I have a new frame to hang on the wall.
ReplyDeleteI never knew there was a subscription for photos. That's pretty awesome actually, thanks for the cool share!
ReplyDeleteHaven't heard of this before. We sure take a lot of pictures though. I'll have to give this a try. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYea, this is a cool idea. We, like most people, have thousands of pictures on hard drives, but whenever you need a physical one, they're never around.
ReplyDeleteOmg this is a great idea!!! I am a picture hoarder and ughhh... Printing pics can be the biggest hassle ever!
