Remove duplicates first
If five images say almost the same thing, keep the strongest one or two.
A strong album needs a clean photo selection: fewer duplicates, better sequence, stronger faces, better details, and original image files.
The strongest albums are not made by using every photo. They are made by choosing the right photos in the right rhythm.
If five images say almost the same thing, keep the strongest one or two.
Use a mix of wide scene photos, emotional moments, portraits, details, and transitions.
Choose clear photos where faces are sharp and not too close to edges.
Do not use blurry, very dark, screenshot, social-media-downloaded, or heavily compressed images unless necessary.
Choose one strong image that sets the tone of the story.
Use portraits, family groups, candid moments, and emotional reactions.
Include rings, flowers, travel details, pet paws, table settings, or atmosphere.
Use location photos to create context and breathing space.
Put images in a natural order so the album feels easy to follow.
Finish with an image that feels calm, complete, or emotionally strong.
