iPhoto Week – Day 2: Create a Photo Book Using iPhoto’s Faces Feature

10: Build your book
Choose from one frame or six and whether you host text, maps or an introduction by selecting the Layout icon along the bottom of the interface.

11: Drag and drop

To fill the frames you have two choices; the first is to drag images from the Picture, and the alternative is to hit Autoflow and have iPhoto do it all for you.

12: Make adjustments
Don’t drag files into the Edit suite of iPhoto to make alterations, simply select a frame and choose the Adjust icon. Tweak the values and settings.

13: Little changes
Highlight a frame to see a mini control appear along the top. Zoom in or out, and move the image within the template’s frame with the Hand tool.

14: Add text
Using the palette of layouts available, select one that incorporates text. Now simply start typing as much or as little text as you see fit.

15: Fonts
Having attributed some words to the page, head to the settings menu to locate the portion of text that affects you and make alterations to suit

16: Effects
Another great feature of iPhoto is the ability to alter the colour values of an image to action an effect. Opt for the Adjust menu when an image is selected.

17: Background
You can alternate the colours or backgrounds with the Backgrounds tool. But for a more classic approach use one colour to make it uniform.

18: Et voila
Once all frames have filled and you’ve perfected everything, take a quick flick through to ensure you are happy with the result and hit Buy Book.
