Best way to present 11 photo's of my twins

[dubcat]

Hi, I had a photo shoot taken for my 3 year old twins. Rather than buying prints I bought the digital images so that I can produce prints for family to my hearts content. Well that was the idea at the time.

The shots were taken back in June and I have still not printed them! I am not sure what the best way to show them is. Originally I wanted to make a photo book but we only have 11 prints. Can you make a book with 11 prints? If so can someone point me to a high quality place to get that done? Photobox seem to start with 20+ pictures.

Should I just get these printed as 10x8's and put them in a regular album instead?

Appreciate your advice and experience.. hoping for a resolution before my wife 'reminds' me yet again that I have failed as a parent and human being /sigh.

A calender.....? Could find another pic to use as the 12th?

ooh good idea. that i will do for sure!

still want a high quality presentation for them though in addition to this... but a calendar I will 100% do.. thanks. hadn't even thought about that option! doh!

I'm pretty sure the online labs such as loxley colour and ds colour labs do the calenders online, you can get some nice ones

Pick your 9 faves and make a nice big square montage?

Get creative with your 20 pages. Look at this link for an idea...

Basically instead of having blank pages at the end of the book, put the pictures on alternate pages and insert text and/or pictures to the blanks. You could photograph your child's favourite toy, pair of bootees, baby's foot in your hands, rattle, etc, etc. Just check out some stock photo sites for ideas. Use these pictures in small form or photoshopped styles next to quotes or poems (internet trawl again ). Fill the empty pages with these items.

The above link illustrates it better than I can describe

Loxley roes and smugmug are the 2 that come to mind.

Create a 12th image (names, DoB etc) and do a simple 3x4 grid of the resulting 12 images?

Personally, the calendar option would be my choice - maybe use a photo of the twins' makers as the 12th image?
