    How to Make a Pet Photo Album (Dog, Cat or Any Furry Friend)

    Scroll through your camera roll and count the pet photos. For most owners it's hundreds: the sleepy ones, the muddy ones, the "look at this face" ones. They deserve better than being buried between screenshots.

    Album ideas

    "The first year"

    From the day they came home to their first birthday. Puppies and kittens change so fast that this one is precious.

    "A year with Levi"

    A year-in-the-life album: walks, naps, holidays, the sofa they're not allowed on.

    "Adventures"

    Every beach, mountain and park they've explored with you.

    "Forever in our hearts"

    A memorial album for a pet who has passed away. Gathering the photos is often part of saying goodbye.

    Picking the best photos

    • Eyes in focus. A sharp eye makes a pet photo, even if the rest is soft.
    • Daylight beats flash. Pets' eyes glow with flash, and dark photos print poorly.
    • Get down to their level. Photos from their eye height feel more personal.
    • Include the people. Kids with the dog, the cat on someone's lap. In ten years these will be the favourites.
    • Skip near-duplicates. Pet owners shoot in bursts. Keep the best of each.
