Photo Gift Ideas for Parents, Partners and Friends

The best gift is often a memory. Ideas for the people in your life.

Gifts for Parents

A photo book of the family, from old photos to new, is a gift most parents keep for years. For a milestone anniversary, choose 12x12 inch, our biggest book. A wall calendar with a family photo for every month, and birthdays already marked, is a gift they will use daily.

Gifts for Grandparents

Grandparents like photos they can hold and see easily. Choose a larger wall calendar, with a photo of each grandchild and big, clear dates. A small 4x6 inch photo book of the latest photos is easy to post, so you can send a new one every few months.

Gifts for a Partner

A photo book of your time together, or of a trip you took, makes a thoughtful gift. Square 8x8 inch works for a mix of photos. Add a short caption to each page, and a few words from you on the last one.

For something smaller, a set of Polaroid-style prints with a caption on each white border can go in a card.

Gifts for a Friend

A photo collage in an 8x10 inch size fits a standard frame. Fill it with photos of your friendship through the years. It is inexpensive, quick to make, and personal.

Gifts for Children

A photo book of a school year, a birthday, or a holiday is something a child can look through themselves. Choose a hardcover with matte pages for a book that will be handled a lot.

Gifts for Colleagues and Teams

An A5 desk calendar with a team photo, or a photo book of a shared project or event, works well as a farewell or anniversary gift. Order a few copies so everyone gets one.

Tips for Any Gift

Choose photos where the person looks like themselves. Use the sharp originals from your camera roll rather than copies sent on WhatsApp. Order a few days early, since the delivery time for your pin code is shown at checkout.
