Unless you have several children, or you're the exception to the rule, you probably take a lot of pictures of your baby, particularly during their first year. That's why a baby's first year photo book is such a great subject. There are usually so many to pick from that you can come up with enough good ones to make a beautiful book.
If your baby is already a year old, or closing in on it, then the pictures are probably pretty much finished. If that is not the case, I would suggest taking as many candid shots as you can, as well as a few posed ones. Give some thought to the pictures you really want to make a part of your photo book, and write them down so that you don't forget to take them. For example, you may want one with your baby and the grandparents, but if you don't write it down it may get overlooked until it's too late.
Besides noting particular shots, a couple of other important elements that can really make your baby's first year photo book come to life are captions and text. Not only note who is in a picture, but there may be some pictures where it would be very meaningful to add text telling the story behind the picture, or something that may have happened when it was taken, or shortly before or after it was taken. It's always better if you can do this as the pictures are being shot, but if it's too late for that just try to recall enough to at least get the captions right, and add a little text where appropriate.
Once you have all the pictures that you want to use transferred to your computer, and you've finished writing out all of your captions and text, you're ready to make your photo book. All you do is go online to a web site that has the following key ingredients; photo book designs that you like, good photo book options, a simple to follow design and ordering interface, and the latest technology.
