Ideas & tips to capture the photos you love

Can I customize my card?
Please do! Change the background color, add a back-of-card design, choose rounded corners, select from different layouts. Once you choose a card, you can make it your own.

Which photos should I use in my card?
That's the fun part — it's up to you. Some people love to use favorite shots and others prefer formal portraits. Just choose a design that complements the photos you love.

What should we wear for a black-and-white photography sitting?
Black-and-white photos are a nice way to make a classic statement and the colors you wear are key. Choose clothing colors that contrast your background and avoid busy patterns, but don't worry about matching exactly.

Can I use photos from my phone?
You can and you should. Often, the photos that best capture your family's personality are the ones taken in the moment on a mobile device.

Is there room to add my greetings?
Absolutely! If you like to send a Christmas letter, look for layouts with large text boxes. If you just like to include your names and a brief greeting, any card layout will work well.

How many photos should I add to my card?
That depends on how many children you have. Do you have a pet? Did you get married this year or take a big trip? Friends and family will enjoy seeing how you spent your year.

What's the best way to take a selfie?
Selfies capture fun moments throughout the year, but they can be unflattering if not done right. So, use your phone's timer instead of holding your phone at arm's length. Try to avoid using the flash and keep your chin up!

Do I need a formal photo for my holiday card?
Not at all, but many families have an annual portrait taken, so it's natural to use it in a holiday card. Choose a single photo style, or feature your portrait on the front and use more casual shots inside or on the back.
