Tips for Better Photo Christmas Cards




By Alison Hodges

During the Christmas season, almost everyone is going to get a Christmas card from someone else. It is always great to send nice Christmas cards to all of your friends and family members. Although, rather than simply sending a generic Christmas card (which recipients may find to be dull), many people decide to make the card extra special by having it be a photo Christmas card. The photos on the front of the card can be of one's family, the family dog, a new baby, or any number of other possibilities.


In order for a photo Christmas card to be aesthetically pleasing, great care should be given to the photo that will be used. Taking a good picture is quintessential for a solid photo Christmas card. Without a good picture, the card will seem cheap, and friends/relatives may think no effort was put into it. That's certainly not the goal of any Christmas card! In order to avoid this catastrophe, be sure that the photo is taken with good lighting. Taking time to plan out the pose can also help tremendously. It seems simple enough, but many people don't use the best cameras for Christmas card photos. A cheap camera will produce a cheap photo. One way to make sure that the photo is high quality is to take several pictures in several different poses. Spend time reviewing all of the photos and choose which one would compliment the card best.


Careful consideration should be put into the selection of the company that you choose to print your photos. A good company will have better service and almost undoubtedly produce better results. Many companies can take orders online; so don't hesitate to search around on the Internet. As a rule, a company with a well-designed, user-friendly web site will probably give more customer satisfaction than other companies. Also take pricing into account. Some companies may offer discount rates depending on the amount of photos needed. Taking a look at all of the possibilities and comparing is a great practice for choosing a provider.


Keeping the provider in mind, be sure to find out how they print the photos. Some companies may use ink-jet or dye sublimation print, which will not look as good as the use of actual photos. Good providers will probably provide potential customers with a plethora of information about how the photos are produced. Finding this information shouldn't be too difficult if the company has a well-designed web site or an informative customer service line. Once again, quality is paramount when making a Christmas card. If the photo Christmas card is high quality, it will surely be displayed on friends' and family's mantels long after Christmas is over.
