Cherish|BOUND

If you have ever struggled to create a photobook, not been sure where to publish it, not been able to figure out how to make it look nice. If you’re not completely satisfied with the results of books you’ve created, or have wanted to create, but never got around to printing because something just wasn’t right.

If you are anything like me, I have thousands of photographs sitting on my hard drive, on my external hard drives, on CD’s, and in boxes in the closet in the guest bedroom. All waiting for when I get around to getting my act together and do something with them! That’s right, I create cherished memories for people through my photo collage design business, I love taking photos and talking photos…but I am just like everyone else when it comes to the job of getting all these cherished memories into a format that can tell the story and easily be shared.

I have found a solution.

Cherish BOUND is not just about photobooks to display your pictures, but guides you step-by-step to telling YOUR story. The story of your life, the story of your children’s births, the story of the love between you and your spouse, your child’s school years, that amazing family vacation. Our lives and memories are made up of much more that just photographs. A picture cannot always say a thousand words, sometimes photographs need a little help. Think about it, when your grandchildren flip through a photobook you created far off in the future, how will they know anything about the people in the pictures and what was happening if you are not there to tell them about it? They won’t.

story-startersCherish BOUND provides tools to help us capture the stories when we don’t know where to start. Story Starters help guide us with questions to answer, getting the story going. Story Dailies provide ideas and a place to jot down events as they happen so telling the story becomes that much easier. The publishing center is easy to use, with ready made templates and backgrounds for those who wish to keep it simple. But, for those of us digital scrapbookers, full bleed options allow us to upload full completed pages if we so choose for a more creative custom look.

I’ve joined Cherish BOUND as a consultant to work on my stories and help other work on theirs.

With the help of Cherish BOUND and their unique way of helping to capture the story and my own love of digital scrapbooking, I am embarking on my own Cherish BOUND journey. Won’t you join me and create and share your own story?
