yolobookBaby gifts: the first year in one album
In the first year you take more photos than in the previous five. The first smile, the first tooth, the first step. Save them in an album your child will one day leaf through with their own children.
When a baby arrives, parents receive lots of clothes and toys that are quickly outgrown. A gift they’ll never outgrow is a first-year photo book: photos your child will one day leaf through and ask, “Was that really me?”
Three reasons to save the first year

Tip
Take a photo of your baby in the same spot every month. By the end of the year you’ll have 12 photos for an album or calendar.
How to save your baby’s first year
Take one photo every month in the same spot, in the same position, with the same toy. By the end of the year you’ll have 12 photos showing how much the baby has grown, perfect for an album or a calendar.
Photograph ordinary days too, not just big moments. Bath time, naps, the first spoonful of food. These are the photos parents love most later on.
If you’re giving an album to the parents but don’t have photos of the baby, ask them to send you ten or so favourites. Or make the album together with them: it’s a gift for them and for the baby.
