One of the best things about camp? We take SO many pictures! We make it a priority to have photographers everywhere to help you preserve your memories (and help parents see all the fun you’re having!). They’re great pictures too, you’ll want to keep them forever.

One of the hardest things about camp? We take SO many pictures! On any given day, we can post up to (or even over!) 2,000 photos. That’s 2,000 fun memories you get to keep forever, but it’s also a lot to sort through. Once you (or your parents) have done the work to find great pictures of you, how do you make sure you can enjoy them all year long?

We don’t want your pictures to live on your phone! What’s the fun in that? Photos are for enjoying, so we’ve rounded up some of our favorite ways to get your pictures off a screen and into your life. You’ll be glad you did!

  1. Print them! Okay, we know, we’re starting basic here, but there is nothing more satisfying than holding a photo in your hand. Social Print Studio is one of our favorites for easy printing - they offer everything from classic prints to photostrips to panoramas.
  2. Put together a book. Collect all your favorites from the summer and make your own Greystone photo book - sites like Artifact Uprising and Chatbooks make it so easy! How fun would it be to look through all your old books?
  3. Make them into postcards. We can’t resist a chance to push good old snail mail, and how much more fun is it with your own photos? Print your favorite cabin photos into your own postcards and send them out. This is a postcard your cabinmates will actually want to keep!
  4. Order stickers! Because why wouldn’t you want your own camp photo stickers? Put them on your waterbottle, your trunk, your school notebooks, or just all over your letters to your camp pals!
  5. Hang them on your wall. Of course you can put them in any old frame, but how fun are the custom options from Minted? We love the classic collage or the North Carolina shape!
