Photo Gifts for Dad

If shopping for dad is difficult for you, and let’s face it, it is for most people, why not consider something personal such as a collection of your favorite images including him? While some dads might like a hard bound photo album to place on their shelf, many might prefer a web photo album that they can view on their computer or tablet.

Creating and sharing an online photo gallery ensures dad can always carry the memories with him. Build an album based around special memories, like a vacation that you have fond memories of, or baby pictures of you and your siblings. There are countless options!

There are plenty of websites and brick and mortar stores that can do image transfers, giving you even more options for photo gifts. You could create a t-shirt with a favorite image and one of dad’s infamous one-liners. Or, a coffee mug featuring a treasured family photo.

If you have a box full of old family pictures in a box stashed in the attic or basement, now is the time to get them out. With today’s technology you can scan the images, or take them to a photo shop that specializes in digital transfer of images.

After the images have been digitally stored, create a web photo album to share with other family members – making sure to surprise dad first! This ensures your family images and legacy are preserved for years to come and you also have created a wonderful digital archive for everyone to enjoy. A fun way to present this gift would be to have one of the images printed and framed for display and then include a card that has information on how to access the rest of the images. What a fun and unique surprise gift!
