In terms of the design process, the style of the book is Modern Black and the font I used is Neutraface Book 12 for the captions and Lulo Clean One 24 for the titles. But you do need to be on a laptop or desktop rather than your phone to do the photo book editing, which made those options less attractive to me.) One other thing to be aware of is that Shutterfly will require you to have at least 20 photos to start the project (presumably because the minimum size of the album is 20 pages), so don't be like me and try to start the album before you have your pictures! (You also have the option of adding pictures from Google, Facebook, or Instagram, but I didn't use those options, so I can't comment on how well they work. You don't have to set up a separate album on Shutterfly first, though you can add pictures to the project straight from your computer, but I liked having them saved in Shutterfly. Then, I created the project, which was specifically for the photo album and added the pictures that I wanted to use to the project. That way, I felt like my pictures were backed up if something happened to my computer and back-up drive. The first thing I did was to create an album in Shutterfly and put all of Donut's pictures from 2019 in that album, even ones that I wasn't necessarily going to use for the album. The one thing that was a little cumbersome, but I can't see a way around, is the way I used to organize pictures for the album.
#My albums are empty on shutterfly how to#
I've used Shutterfly a few times in the past, so I was familiar with how to upload pictures to the site, which was the first step.
Based on feedback from a friend of mine, who has created several Shutterfly books, my understanding is that if you don't get the lay-flat pages, you really do need to be aware of how close your photos and text are getting to the middle of the layout because the "normal" pages will make it hard to see things close to the middle. After seeing the finished book, I think that was the right choice. I was kind of on the fence about whether the lay-flat pages were worth it until I started designing the book and realized that having pictures cross the middle of the layout was going to work the best for some layouts.

I would really have liked to get the leather cover option, but Shutterfly doesn't offer that with the lay-flat pages (unless you get the Professional Flush Mount album, which starts at $375, and that was really not a price point that I was interested in). I also paid extra for Professional 6 Color Printing and the removal of the Shutterfly logo on the logo page. For options, I got an 8 x 8 hard matte photo cover with deluxe lay-flat pages. The minimum number of pages you can create is 20 and the maximum is 110. The album I created was a fairly short one, with 26 pages. It arrived a couple of weeks ago, and I wanted to share a video of the finished product as well as my thoughts about the process of creating the album and the quality of the finished product. I had mentioned last month that one of the things I accomplished was creating a photo album on Shutterfly for Donut.
