Some things you want to remember exactly as they happened — and a reunion mixes old photos with new faces, decades apart, in one nostalgic evening. A Class Reunion photo book gathers the throwback photos, the reunion night itself, and the then-and-now pairings into one printed keepsake instead of leaving them scattered across your phone, three group chats, and a shared album nobody opens. With Pixalby you upload straight from your camera roll and the auto-layout engine builds clean spreads in minutes — no design software, no fighting with margins. Gather old and new photos from the whole class and build one book. You can reorder pages, add short captions that name the people and places, and pick a hardcover that survives real coffee-table life. A class reunion is exactly the kind of milestone that deserves paper: something you can hand across a table, mail to family, or pull off the shelf years later. Building the book is free, so you can lay the whole story out and see how it feels before you order — It is free to build and you only pay when you are ready to print.
What to include in a Class Reunion photo book
The core of a class reunion book is the moments only you have: the throwback photos, the reunion night itself, and the then-and-now pairings. Round it out with the candids — the in-between shots that show how the day actually felt. Aim for a mix of a few hero images and the small, honest frames around them.
How to lay out a Class Reunion book
Order the pages the way the day or season unfolded so the book reads like a story. Give the biggest moments a full spread and let quieter shots share a page. Short captions naming who is in frame and when turn a nice photo book into a keepsake future generations can actually follow.
Turning it into a gift
A class reunion book makes an easy, meaningful gift. Print one for yourself and extra copies for the people in it — grandparents, the couple, the team. Choose a then-and-now cover with the class year for the cover, add a short dedication on the first page, and order a few weeks ahead so shipping is never a worry.
Quick tips
- ✦Gather everyone’s phone photos first — the best class reunion shots are often not on your own camera roll.
- ✦Put a then-and-now cover with the class year on the cover so it reads at a glance on a shelf.
- ✦Caption the people by name; it is what makes the book matter in ten years.
- ✦Order a couple of weeks early to leave room for printing and shipping.
Frequently asked questions
- How many photos do I need for a Class Reunion photo book?
- A 24-page book holds roughly 60–90 photos comfortably. For a class reunion that spans a long stretch of time, 32–40 pages gives you more room. Pixalby lets you add pages as you build, so start with your favourites and grow from there.
- What is the best size for a Class Reunion photo book?
- A square hardcover suits the mix of portrait and landscape phone photos most class reunion sets have, while a larger landscape book makes a statement gift. All Pixalby books print on heavy 170gsm satin paper that lasts.
- Can I make a Class Reunion book from phone photos?
- Yes — that is exactly what Pixalby is built for. Upload straight from your camera roll, HEIC included, and the auto-layout engine arranges everything for print. No computer or design skills needed.
- How far ahead should I make a Class Reunion photo book?
- Gather old and new photos from the whole class and build one book. Beyond that, allow a few business days for printing plus shipping, so ordering two to three weeks before you need it in hand is safe.
- Is a Class Reunion photo book a good gift?
- It is one of the most-kept gifts you can give — personal, printed, and impossible to replicate. Add a dedication on the first page and order extra copies for everyone who appears in it.
