Use Photo Books
Photo books are a great way to store your photos in print.

The trick is in storing the photo books in a way that they are accessible to you and your guests but also in a way that looks good and not cluttered. Shelving is a great way to store them, as is storing them on a table or side console. If you’re planning on having a lot of photo books then thinking ahead to storage options is always a good idea. So long as you’ve created good spine covers and front covers for the book then your shelves will look great.
