Have you ever had one of those vacations that you and your family will always remember?
Most families do have such vacations, although it can vary from an exotic vacation to a foreign country, a trip to good old Disneyland, or even a nice picnic or outing to other places, near or far. It actually does not matter where you get to have your vacation since the best part that you and your family would remember is the fun you guys had back then.
Naturally, you would want to relive and keep those good memories fresh all the time, but how can you do it apart from sitting and looking at the photo album during those nostalgic moments? The answer to this is simple- make a photo montage.
What is a Photo Montage?
A photo montage is basically just a single picture that is made after mixing up and superimposing other pictures. It can also be just a mix of different photos that have the same theme which, in this case, is your family vacation.
What do you need to make a photo montage?
To start with, you need to have either digital or real copies of the photographs. These days most people have only digital photos stored safely on their hard drive, so that should not be a problem.
You can make a photo montage with some programs like Adobe Photoshop or After Effects so you need these software tool. You can then take a printout of the photo montage you made and put it up on a wall.
Can I make photo montage with printed photos?
Yes, you can also make a photo montage on your own with real printed photographs.
To make a good photo montage, you need to have a good base to start making the montage. You can get a plain or textured poster board or paper as a base for the photo montage.
There is just one rule for making a photo montage, and that is that there are no rules. You can add any number of photographs and paste them in any way you desire. The point of a photo montage is to make an artistic creation with photographs, so the choices are left completely to you.
You can select the best photos from your vacation- priceless moments or some silly photos of you and your kids. You can also paste the boarding passes for the trip if you have them with you.
Other ideas include some small items or keepers that you found or bought from the place you visited.
You can cut out some photos to make interesting shapes as well. For example, you can cut out photos of your trip to Disneyland and make it resemble the contour of Mickey Mouse. Moreover, you can also draw or paint some objects on the montage itself. The idea here is to let your imagination and creativity run wild and make a photo montage that represents the great time you and your family had during the vacation.
The ideas given above are just a starting point. If you use your imagination, you can really create a unique and beautiful photo montage that reminds you of your most memorable vacation.
