STORYBOOK: 5 IDEAS
Storybook is a fantastic and contemporary alternative to the traditional photo album. Featuring a mix of photos and text and presented in a magazine style format, it’s a perfect way to collate and capture all those special moments and memories of your life. Beautiful storybooks with collages full of memories, stories and photos is always the best way to show off your favorite moments.
1. Wedding.
I think it's the most popular theme for a story book. The wedding story book is the traditional way to showcase and preserve precious images from your big day. It's still a good way for couples to capture the mood and story of their wedding. Whether you have an elopement, traditional wedding or a super small wedding; you will love looking back at your wedding memories with all your closest friends and family. Photographers usually capture everything from the surroundings of the location, the bride and grooms first dance, to the small details on the dinner table. Include these special images in your book and add unique text, quotes, and every important detail about your big day. Adding the notes from your friends and family will be also a great idea.

2. Travel.
Travel story book is a great way of getting your travel pictures out of the digital folder and transformate them to the georgeous story book that will be a talking point with whoever visits your home. Think about what kind of information could make your story richer — and which facts or travel memories you want to get down in writing before you forget. You can write about your trip in more details, add some quotes or poems, interesting facts etc. There is no limits. Or you can simply transform your storybook to the travel diary. It's also a good idea.

3. Reading journal.
You can use the storybook format to keep your reading memories or save your favorite books. Create a moodboard to express your feelings of the story - use the book cover, the portrait of the author, the pictures of setting, main caracters and the most important scenes. Then add some text like plot summary, your review, interesting facts about the book, key lessons, list of songs, favorite quotes or moments etc.

4. Beach memories.
Spending a day at the beach is always a good idea. Life is better at the beach – or so they say. Beach is a place for fun, relaxation, memory-making and trying new things. Holidays at the seaside are the source of some of our most enduring memories. Create your beach storybook to never forget the memories you made while enjoying the hot summer sun and strolling by the beach. Adding a short or long story will help you to return to your beach memories during the rainy autumn days or cold winter evenings.

5. Hiking.
Hiking is my new hobby and I think it deserve to be a theme for my next story book. A yearly hiking story book is more than just a collection of hiking trails. It’s a curated narrative that lets you relive your most thrilling moments. Hiking adventure offers not just physical exhilaration, but also a deep connection with the wild. Imagine capturing these breathtaking experiences and compiling them into a stunning storybook, including majestic vistas, wildlife encounters and trail-life moments.
