As Christmas approaches, it can be pretty tricky to figure out what gifts you should get for the men in your life. Photo gifts are easily customisable and make for great presents for all your friends and family. Read on for more tips on what you should get your dads, brothers, and boyfriends.
Keep it simple with wall art for dad
Keep your dad’s gift fuss-free with a piece of wall art for his space. It’ll make a great centrepiece in his office, or he can hang it right above his spot in the living room. Confused on which photo to pick or what material to choose? You can check out our blog on creating the best wall art for your house. Pro tip: try to match the material of your wall art with the photos you’re using. Canvas, for example, adds to the warm and cosy feel of family pics and nature snaps. For something more polished and contemporary, aluminium might suit better.
If wall art isn’t his cup of tea, you can never go wrong with a personalised mug for his favourite drink. Still thinking of what to put on the mug? Go with tried-and-true classics like “World’s Best Dad” or put your own spin on it with dad jokes or fun pictures of the family.
Recipe books for grandad
If your grandad is a great cook, you know that there’s nothing better than eating one of his favourite dishes. With food being a big part of Christmas celebrations, you know the family will be enjoying at least one of his recipes. This year, why not surprise your grandad with his very own recipe book?
Try speaking to family or even his friends about some of his specialty dishes for the recipes. You can also comb through the archives for pics of family parties, birthdays, or even weddings – anywhere his dishes are bound to make an appearance. With one of our themed templates, creating an amazing recipe book is simple – just add the recipes, upload your snaps and sit back and wait for your personalised cookbook to arrive.
A cute photo book for the boyfriend
When it comes to boyfriends, it can be tricky to pick one gift from so many options. This Christmas, why not make a photo book? You can design it around a theme, like pictures of your pet or all the fun you’ve had together. Once you have your photos, a pre-designed photo book makes the process simple and leaves you with a professionally designed result. You can also try making a photo book based on his hobbies – if he likes to cook, he’ll be delighted to receive a cookbook based on his favourite dishes. Need more inspiration?

Create a storybook for your son
The sky’s the limit when it comes to your son’s creativity. Celebrate it with a photo book that’s all about their favourite topic. Why not turn your son into the hero of his very own storybook? With our selection of pre-designed templates, he can be a superhero, a dinosaur expert, or even an astronaut.
You can create your own storyline with the design you’ve picked and the photos you’ve added. On top of that, there’s a huge variety of frames, clip art, and even speech bubbles to choose from. He’ll love this unique spin on his bedtime stories.
Share your memories in print with granddad
With most of our photos being digital today, there’s something special about photos that you can hold in your hands. If your kids have no idea on what to gift granddad this year, prints are a fun way to share what you’ve been up to with him. If you’re editing your prints on our mobile app, you can even get them in these retro-style borders that’ll remind of instant snaps. Either way, he’ll be able to hang his favourites on the fridge or carry them with him wherever he goes.
A planner for a brother
Calendars make simple and practical gifts that are great year-round, making it perfect to give to your brother. It’ll help him stay on top of his schedule with all his best photos. And as with all of our photo products, you can fully customise the planner you create. It’ll be a nice and personal touch to already add in some of your special family events and birthdays in for him.
Make a mug for a work mate
Classic gifts sometimes make the best ones. If you’ve got a buddy at work you’re thinking of getting a present for, a personalised mug is a great, low-key gift. You can add in photos and inside jokes with our text editor, or one of your favourite motivational quotes. This thoughtful gift is one of our best sellers — everyone loves receiving one. So whether you’re going for a hearty laugh or a warm smile, a mug is always a nice and personal gift idea.
