Photo Montages

A photo montage takes your old photos, varying types of film media, and other special items and combines them into a single entertaining video spectacular. Photo Montages make wonderful gifts for family members and for those favorite neighbors who moved away ten years ago. They preserve a family history for your children and grandchildren. Instead of being locked into some album, family photos are now available for groups to enjoy. Everyone can now have copies of those priceless family moments! We’ll guide you through the process of creating your montage, but here’s a clue to three easy steps to preserving your special moments...

THREE EASY STEPS...

First make the tough decision -- which photos to choose and which to lose. We suggest you make a “YES” pile and a “NO” pile, putting all the photos that you may want to use in the “YES” pile and all the rest in the “NO” pile. WARNING: This step is way too much fun, so don't get caught looking at each photo for more then a moment! Try to zero in on the photos that will tell your family's story the best.

Gather all of your YES photos together. We suggest you put them in chronological order. Start with the early photos and work your way forward to the present day. You may have some photos or groups of photos that will work better in their own little chronological sequences; such as, career, job or business photos, house photos, lake home photos, vacations, grand-kids, etc. You can even accent these by using a special music theme for each group and perhaps even giving each group its own title; for instance, you could place the title “Our Babies” before the grandchildren group.

Number your photos on the back with either a pencil or stickers (post-it notes work well). DO NOT USE a pen as the ink may rub off onto the other photos. This is also the time to start thinking about music and titles. You'll at least want a greeting at the beginning and some closing statement at the end of your video. For example, if you are making an anniversary video, you could simply put “Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad” at the beginning and “With Love, From All Of Us” at the end. Or, if you wish, you can be more personal and creative in your titles. We would consider it an honor to produce your video! Contact us today! Give us a call to setup an appointment.
