My Mixbook Story: Hilary K. from Baltimore, MD
Why do you create photo books?
"I create photo books to not only reminisce on precious moments but also as a keepsake for future generations to find. Discovering old photo books is like finding a time capsule, I can't wait for my grandchildren to laugh at the way we put together photo books, what we wore, and all the other nuances."
Time capsules are not just boxes buried behind football fields in high school drama shows. They are pieces of history wrapped up in a neat place waiting for someone to discover. Hilary knows how important it is to have her story discovered by the next generation, and she does that through her photo books.
Why are your photo books important to you?
"I used to love scrapbooking in the 90s- 2000s, but nowadays I do not have the time, patience, or money to keep up! Mixbook has allowed me to indulge in my long-lost love for scrapbooking in a fraction of the time. These photo books hold moments in time, that I can reference whenever I need an extra dose of happiness."
Once upon a time, taking a photo book required a trip to the arts and crafts store, and then hours of manually organizing, cutting, pasting, and gluing. When you are a teenager, it is much easier to dedicate the time to cutting out pictures of the Eiffel tower from magazines. Mixbook brings the fun of scrapbooking to the digital age. You can spend as little or much time as you like on making your custom photo book special.
How do you feel when you flip through your photo book?
"I am immediately flushed with appreciation, joy, and sometimes happy tears when I flip through my photo books. It allows me to reflect on who I was, who I was with, and all that we did."
Much of the reason people love making photo books is the emotions that come with them. Whether they be excitement on a trip, celebration at a party, or a time capsule through an era of their lives, the best thing about a photo book is how much happiness is printed into its pages.
What is your favorite feature or tool when using the Mixbook Editor?
"My favorite Mixbook feature is definitely the layout and grid options to choose from depending on the number of photos chosen."

How do you express your creativity with Mixbook?
"It is extremely easy to get lost in creativity while creating a Mixbook, you can choose a theme or build from scratch! My favorite part is deciding the story I would like to tell with the order of my photos. In my most recent photobook, I choose the adventures theme and created a layout that reflected the places we visited!"
