4 tips for telling your summer stories with photos

What a great vacation! Don't you wish everyone could experience it the way you did? The sounds, the sites, the smells - your pictures can certainly conjure up some great memories. These are the memories that you'll want to share with others or revisit yourself over and over again throughout the years. Here are some tips to help you have fun with those summer memories!

 

Capture great vacation photos


That's right, your vacation (or any other event, for that matter) is a story; it has a beginning, middle, and an end. Capturing your photos in a way that tells the story is the first step in really taking your vacation home with you and sharing it with others. No matter how you end up sharing your digital photos, with a little planning you can make sure you're telling a great story.

Take better photos at the beach. The beach provides a naturally beautiful canvas, and by simply using a variety of perspectives, you can create extraordinary pictures of your days by the sea.

Take artful travel photos. Even recognizable or frequently photographed locations can be even more eye-catching when you capture them from a fresh perspective.

Take memorable wedding photos. More engaged couples now choose the summer season for their wedding. Are you invited to attend someone's wedding this summer?

Bind your summer fun in a timeless photo book


Telling stories is an art. So when the summer has ended, why confine the experiences to a pile of photos? Display your album as a beautiful piece of art on your coffee table without the fuss of cutting and pasting prints into an album. With a program like Photo Collage Studio, you can easily create beautiful photo books with collages of your fun-filled photos, complete with text  and clipart.

Use your photos for making photo movie DVD


Another good way to help preserve summer pictures is to create a photo movie and then burn it onto a DVD to send to your friends and relatives. They will love sharing the memories with you. If you have never created a photo movie before, it’s easy to get started. Friends and family will be able to view your photo movie over and over again on the PC using Media Player or on their TV through a DVD player.

Share your photos on MySpace as flash slideshow


A photo book or DVD is a good way to relive your summer memories. But if you've a MySpace/ Blog/own website, it's better to make a flash slideshow of your still photos, complete with music, templates, text and effects.

The hot days of summer are busy ones filled with many wonderful events and experiences. Don't let your digital memories fade. With the right tools, you can help summer last a lifetime.
