4" x 6" Family Memory Book Photo Album*

The 4" x 6" Family Memory Book Photo Album holds 24 photos, and that number is the whole point of it. A phone holds thousands of pictures nobody ever looks at twice. A memory book that holds 24 forces the good decision: the shot where everyone is actually looking, the one from the trip, the one from the hospital doorway, the one nobody can explain but everyone laughs at. Twenty-four pictures is a family, edited down to the ones worth keeping.
It takes standard 4" x 6" prints, so the photographs already sitting in an envelope from the photo lab drop straight in, and the ones still on a phone are a print order away. It is small enough to travel in a bag to a grandparent's house and slim enough to live on a coffee table or a nightstand instead of a shelf nobody reaches.
The cover carries your wording, personalized in-house by HansonEllis, up to 36 characters on a single line. A family surname. A married name with the year it started. A child's name and birth date. A line for a grandmother who does not need another ornament but would sit with this for an hour. That one line is the difference between an album and someone's album, and it is why this book gets handed over at showers, anniversaries, graduations and Christmas rather than bought for the house.
The 4" x 6" Family Memory Book Photo Album also works as a gift that is given empty on purpose. Hand it to new parents, to a couple back from a honeymoon, or to a graduate leaving home, and the pictures arrive later. The wording on the cover is already waiting for them.
Add your personalization text above, choose your quantity, and give a family somewhere to keep the photographs they keep meaning to print.

How the 4" x 6" Family Memory Book Photo Album is personalized
- Decide on your one line of wording: up to 36 characters, counting spaces and punctuation, so a surname and a year or two first names and a date both fit.
- Type it into the personalization field on this page and set your quantity. If each album needs different wording, order the full count and email your list to [email protected] after ordering.
- HansonEllis personalizes the cover in-house and ships the album insured by UPS, FedEx or USPS with tracking emailed to you, ready for 24 photographs.
Ideas for what to put on the cover
- The family surname on its own, which is the version that never dates.
- A married name with Est. and the wedding year, given to the couple after the honeymoon.
- A baby's name and birth date, so the album is waiting before the first prints are made.
- A milestone, such as a 50th anniversary or a class year, above 24 photographs from it.
- A short line for a grandparent that means something only to the family reading it.

Which one should I choose
The real choice is how many pictures you want the gift to hold, and whether anyone's name is on it.
| 4" x 6" Family Memory Book Photo Album | Choose it when 24 edited photographs in a personalized book is the gift, and it has to be portable enough to carry to someone else's house. |
|---|---|
| A large bulk photo album | Choose it when hundreds of prints need storing and nobody is going to carry the album anywhere. |
| A single personalized picture frame | Choose it when one photograph is the gift and it is going on a desk or a shelf rather than into a book. |
For a gift that carries a name and still fits in a bag, the 24-photo memory book is the one that gets used.
