Thu Tran’s favorite client gift is hands down the photo notepad. “I LOVE the Pinhole Press Notepads – they are practical and everyone can use them. I’m a list maker and I love having them around to jot down notes or to make to-do lists. I know my clients can have them at their desk at work or throw them in their bag. They’re fun to look at and I can get maximum exposure without being too obtrusive.” Feature photo and photo above by Thu Tran.

I made these photo pads as gifts for my clients, and couldn’t help but include some calligraphy to make it even more personalized. I scanned in the lettering, opened Photoshop and pasted in the image of the lettering with the wedding photo I wanted to use. Then, I just saved it and uploaded it to PinholePress.com…Just so you know, I added about 4 extra steps for myself! The calligraphy on Bill & Maggie’s notepad is actually a photograph off their wedding invitation, so that was nice reuse! Photo above by Li Ward.

Sally raves that “my favorite Pinhole product is definitely the Photo Pads… my clients adore them. I love that they showcase the images beautifully and are also such a practical item that anybody would find useful! I’m always tempted to order extras for myself!” Packaging your photo pads with a ribbon makes them an even sweeter gift. Photo above and below by Sally Honeycutt.
