The abundance of digital photos

As a result, the number of digital photos produced has reached stratospheric heights. These are stored on computerscomputerstelephones, serversservers… And this is undoubtedly the other side of the coin of this abundance. We benefit little or badly from our digital photos because we simply have too many of them and because it is not very pleasant to look at them in a row on a screen.

There is the solution which consists in printing them yourself and then filing them patiently. But ink and paper are expensive and time is often short.

This is why online services offering the creation and printing of photo albums on paper provide a relevant response to these pitfalls. For a few tens of euros, they make it possible to quickly create personalized compositions using very simple tools and then to have them printed in all kinds of formats: photo books, posters, calendars, diaries, announcements, cards and even photos on canvas or photo paintings.
