How to Make a Photo Book in 10 Minutes | Quick & Easy Guide

Creating a beautiful photo book doesn’t have to take hours—or require professional design skills. With Mixbook Studio and Auto-Create feature, you can make a beautiful keepsake in just 10 minutes! You can easily create a book that looks like it took weeks to make. Whether you are capturing family memories, a dream vacation, or a special event, it’s simple to design.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the idea of making a digital scrapbook, this guide is for you. Here’s how to get it done quickly and easily—even if you don’t consider yourself creative.

Step 1: Get Your Photos Organized Before You Start

Before diving into the Mixbook easy photo book creator, spend a few minutes organizing your photos. This will save time and make the design process even smoother. Here’s how:

✅ Create a dedicated folder – Collect all the images you want to use in one place on your computer or phone.

✅ Sort by event or theme – Group photos by occasion (vacation, wedding, baby’s first year) to keep your story flowing.

✅ Eliminate duplicates – Choose only your best shots so your book looks polished and uncluttered.

✅ Edit photos beforehand – Brighten, crop, or enhance any images for the best print quality.

Once your images are ready, you’ll breeze through the next steps!

Pro Tip: The Mixbook iOS app helps organize your photos for you!

Step 2: Choose Your Theme & Start Your Book

Mixbook offers hundreds of professionally designed themes for every occasion, from weddings and travel to everyday family moments.

👉 How to choose the right theme: Pick a theme that matches the mood of your photos. For total creative freedom, start with a blank book!

Once you’ve chosen, click “Start Book” and move to the next step.

Step 3: Let Auto-Create Do the Heavy Lifting

This is where the magic happens! Mixbook’s Auto-Create feature takes the stress out of designing a photo book.

What Auto-Create Does for You:

• ✔ Instantly arranges your photos into a cohesive layout.
• ✔ Balances image sizes and orientations for a professional look.
• ✔ Selects the best placement based on composition and colors.
• ✔ Ensures your book flows naturally, telling a story page by page.

How to Use Auto-Create:

1. Upload your photos – Add them from your computer, phone, or connected apps like Google Photos and Facebook.
2. Click “Auto-Create” – The system instantly organizes your photos into a well-designed book.
3. Review & tweak – Everything is customizable, so you can adjust layouts, add text, or swap images if needed.

In seconds, you create a personalized photo book that looks like a pro crafted it!

Step 4: Customize in Minutes

Auto-Create gives you a great starting point, but you can easily personalize it further. Here’s how to make it truly yours:

🎨 Try different layouts – Flip through layout options to see what works best for your images.

🖊 Add text – Include captions, quotes, or dates to add context and personality.

🎭 Play with backgrounds & stickers – Enhance your pages with stylish backgrounds and fun stickers.

📏 Resize & adjust photos – Drag, drop, and resize images for the perfect look.
