A camera roll is not a memory

A folder of four hundred photos is storage. A single page with four of them taped down, annotated and surrounded by the ticket stubs is a memory. This template does the second thing: your photos come back as Polaroid prints laid across textured paper, held down with washi tape, ringed with pressed flowers, stamps, map fragments and handwriting.

Getting the best result

Two to four photos works best, and variety beats volume — a landscape, a street, a plate of food and a person will always build a better page than four similar views. Your photos stay recognisable on the page, though the model does retouch details as it fits everything together.

Not just for trips

The same layout works for a wedding, a semester, a pet's first year, or a single weekend. Anything with a handful of photos and a story attached.
