What is a year in review photo book?

A year in review photo book is a photo book of one year of your life — from January to December, with photos in the order they were taken. Trips and celebrations next to ordinary weekends: the whole year, in one book you can hold.

A tradition for every New Year

The best time to make it is at the end of December or in early January, while the year is still fresh. Many customers make one every year — the books stand side by side, and over time they become a shelf of your years. It's also a thoughtful Christmas or New Year gift for parents and grandparents.

What to put inside

  • trips, holidays and celebrations
  • the big events of the year — a move, a new job, a wedding, a new baby
  • everyday moments: weekends, walks, dinners with friends
  • photos from everyone who was there with you

From Facebook or your own photos

Connect Facebook and choose the year, or upload photos from your phone, computer or camera — or use both. We pick the best shots, remove duplicates and design the book automatically, so it's ready to print right away. You can still change anything if you like.
