Have a Sportsman You Love?

Hunting season is here and you know what that means. There’s going to be a lot more pictures that your friend or loved one is going to take. From woodland landscapes to a great shot of that massive buck, there are tons of photos to help capture the thrill of the hunt. However, once those pictures are taken, how can you be sure that your loved on is going to fully appreciate them? Do yourself and your sportsman a favor. Take all of those fantastic photos and woodland memories and put them into a stunning photo album dedicated just to hunting season.

Able to be filled with tons of great photos and snapshots of your favorite hunting trips, a hunting photo album is a great way to celebrate the thrill of the catch while ensuring that your memories never fade. All you need to get started are just some photos from your last hunting trip. As time goes on, feel free to take more and more photos of your experiences out in the wilderness. Get creative. Write in captions. Include some details about each and every catch. There’s a ton of different options for you to choose from. Just be sure that you start out with a great camo or leather photo album first!

What Are You Doing with Your Halloween Photos?

Each and every year, you take photos of your friends, family, and loved ones during Halloween. But chances are, if you’re like most people, those photos get pushed aside and stored in a shoebox or messy envelope until you find them years later when you’re cleaning out your photo collection. Don’t let those memories fade away! Instead, keep them fun and vibrant – just like this year’s Halloween costumes – by choosing to store your photos in one of the beautiful photo albums or scrapbooks from StorePhotos.com.

Made by Pioneer, one of the leading brands in photo storage, these photo albums and scrapbooks offer archival quality so you can ensure that your photos stay looking great for years to come. Plus, if you choose a scrapbook, you can feel free to create tons of great themed pages that can really make your photos pop.

This Halloween, don’t forget about your photos. Save them for years to come with a little help from StorePhotos.com.

Q&A with StorePhotos.com

Q – I recently bought a scrapbook to start scrapbooking, but I can not seem to get my embellishments to stick to my pages. Whenever I make a page and put it in my book, the embellishments always seem to be at the bottom of the page whenever I open it back up to show anyone. I am using regular white scrapbooking paper and a glue stick to stick my embellishments. Could this be the glue or paper causing the embellishments to fall off the page? – Sue, TX

A – Hi Sue, thanks for contacting StorePhotos.com. It does not sound like it is the paper causing your embellishments to come off. It actually may be the glue. Make sure you are using a higher bond glue. Regular glue sticks are fine for photos and light weight embellishments but if you are gluing heavier decorations on your pages, the glue stick may not hold the weight. StorePhotos.com carries an embellishment glue stick specifically for this problem. This glue stick can hold the weight of a penny. It is also meant for wood, fabric, felt, light metals and cardboard. This will definitely fix the problem you are having. Hope this helps!

Photography Tips: Sunrise and Sunset

Sunrise

Taking photos at some of the most beautiful times of day can be challenging, especially if you’re trying to get a good landscape shot. To help you through photographing sunrise and sunset, here are a few great tips from StorePhotos.com:

-Autumn has a lot of really great sunrises. Purple and pink skies will contrast beautifully with the bold autumn leaves when you watch sunrise from start to finish. But remember, if you’re taking early morning photos, be careful about your light. To get the full impact of all of the colors, try adjusting your settings. If you use a more advanced digital camera, turn down the exposure a few notches to get more dimension.

-Once the sun is in plain sight, you have to be careful of flare. Try using your hat or hand to block out flare or take your photo from a shady spot. If you use a camera with a larger lens, there are always lens hoods that you can use to prevent flare from ruining your picture.

-When shooting either at sunrise or sunset, try putting the horizon off center. This adds a deeper look to your picture and can make the shot look more interesting.

-Pay attention to the clouds. The more clouds there are – without completely covering the sky – the more dynamic the colors will be.

-At sunset, try moving to a higher elevation to get a broader view of the landscape and colors to really capture that moment.

Whether it’s in a photo frame or in a photo album, your pictures deserve to be saved and enjoyed for many years to come. When choosing the right photo album for your favorite memories, consider some of these great tips from the photo album experts at StorePhotos.com:

1.First off, consider the occasion that you’re trying to commemorate. Try to choose a photo album that fits in with the same theme. For example, if you’re storing photos of your son’s basketball season, then choose a basketball or sports themed photo album.

2.Next, consider how many photos you have and choose a photo album that can meet all of your storage needs. For a huge collection, try choosing a photo album that is expandable or can receive easy refills, like the Snapload Photo Albums from StorePhotos.com.

3.Then, consider how durable the photo album is. Does is offer PVC, lignin, and acid-free construction? How about archival quality? Luckily, all of the photo albums from StorePhotos.com do.

4.Finally, consider price. At StorePhotos.com, you can be sure to find great deals on awesome photo albums that can store, organize, and protect your photos for a lifetime.

Five Scrapbooking Tips Every Scrapbooker Can Use

When you’re making a scrapbook, have you ever though about how you can save time and money while doing it? We’re not talking about making you trim down the time you spend on making beautiful creations. We’re talking about cutting out a lot of the tedious tasks that tend to drive you crazy while you lay out your pages and put together a work of art. Instead of stressing, start making more time for doing things you love, like putting each page together. To trim down on your scrapbooking time and to save money on expensive, pre-made solutions, try out some of these great tips:

Scrapbook Embellishment

1.Don’t feel like you have to mat ever single photo in your scrapbook. Instead, try just matting the center or main picture on each page. The rest of the photos can act as an accent while the main photo draws attention to the focus of what’s really going on in your page.
2.Instead of worrying about saving enough space for journaling, try attaching an envelope into your layout. Store extra notes in there.
3.Save time on matting your photos by having your photo lab print photos with a white border.
4.Brads are your friend. They’re great for securing accents when you run out of adhesive and can punch up just about any embellishment. Keep them on hand.
5.Having trouble coming up with a creative layout? Look online for inspiration or free guides.
