Snapfish and Shutterfly both offer wonderfully easy ways to organize your photos and make a memorable gift for your graduate. You can do it two ways on these sites: Manual and Express. You can choose the manual way and pick and place all of your photos on set pages, or you can pick Express and they will organize your photos chronologically and set them in whatever theme you choose. I just made a photobook using the Express way, and it was super simple and really quick to finish. Both of these sites have similar pricings and shipping rates. I have ordered through both sites, and Shutterfly got my new photobook to me days faster than Snapfish. Shutterfly is a bit more expensive, so if you have extra time, then Snapfish is great, too. Uploading your photos is a quick and takes almost no time at all. Both of these sites print on acid free and archival safe paper. Both offer multiple sizes in both hard and soft covers, and even leather, too.
The 20 page photobook pricings for Snapfish, as listed on their site, are as follows: a 5x7 starting at $11.99, 8x8 starting at $19.95, 8x11 starting at $24.99 and 12x12 starting at $44.99.
The 20 page photobook pricings for Shutterfly, as listed on their site, are as follows: 5x7 starting at $12.99, 7x9 starting at $15.99, 8x8 starting at $19.99, 8x11 starting at $34.99 and 12x12 starting at $54.99.
The templates they offer are very easy to use. All you do is select your template, your backgrounds and then your photos. You can move the photos around and adjust them easily. There are so many ways to personalize it that you could spend all day just tinkering with your project. I recommend focusing on just the graduation scrapbook first. You will find yourself getting carried away and wanting to make more books. They are fun and easy to do.
Again, both these sites are very easy to use and give you an excellent product. I received my photobook and I love it. It is a hardbound book with a picture and title on the cover. The pages are absolutely beautiful and in a scrapbook style. The best part about this style of book is you can have up to 14 pictures per page arranged in a scrapbook style and even add text, too. This way you can have your graduate's accomplishments listed in order, and you can add little sayings to each photo just like if you were scrapbooking it yourself.
