Week In The Life™ 2023 | Completed Album Overview 

Thanks for your patience!

Hi! I've got all past years on my blog in the Week In The Life archives: www.aliedwards.com/blog?tag=Week+in+the+Life™. I also put together a new workshop this year that's called Storytelling With Week In The Life. That workshop has individual walk-throughs of each of my past albums all in one place (that I filmed this year specifically for this workshop): www.aliedwards.com/shop/classes/storytelling-with-week-in-the-life

Hi! I use a timer/remote on my camera (or phone). For the car I set my DSLR camera on the dash with the timer set. You can do this!

Hi Kelly! What I often recommend is to start with the design formula in your album - your general set up. With that set up/formula you can establish how many photos you will likely use (most often it's less than people think they need to take). There are always ways to add more if you (such as creating photo collages). When I look back at my photos for the week (in my photo archives) I took about 100 on Monday - I almost always take the most photos on Monday. That includes duplicates/unedited photos. Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday was about 80 (again some that includes duplicates of the same image). I personally like having a bit of choice + I don't have issues with picking which photos I'll use (some people get stuck in the selecting photos phase either because they feel like they need to include all the photos they took or it's simply too overwhelming too choose).

@@AliEdwardsDesignInc Thank you so much, Ali, for all of these tips! I greatly appreciate it!!

I liked them inside a pocket - adds a little bit to it for me. I also wanted to show how you could easily write on the back or make them into a tag if you wanted.

It's a layered template so I was able to mask the photos inside the phones in Photoshop. We've got tutorials for working with layered templates on the blog - www.aliedwards.com/2019/04/week-in-the-life-2019-layered-template-tutorial + in our Hybrid workshop - www.aliedwards.com/shop/classes/hybrid-self-paced

@@AliEdwardsDesignInc Thank you Ali. I just found the layered templates. I love the way they look for text messages which my granddaughters are always sending me. I have to admit I am quite intimidated by this project! I am leaving it for the first week in July when my granddaughters are in dance competitions in Orlando for a week. That will be fun.

@@elenafarinas3 You can do this! One day at a time!

@@AliEdwardsDesignInc I am GOING to do it! (Dammit!!!)
