Scrapbooking question:
Source: google.com via Biz on Pinterest
If you’re going through and scrapbooking your life, and you come across some photos from a time of your life you’d kinda rather forget (maybe you had a run in later on with those friends, or it just wasn’t a super fun time of life, or whatever), what do you do?
Do you…
A) Include the photos (at least just a page of them) anyway, because you’re a stickler for a ‘complete’ album.
B) Just include all of them- they were a part of your life, embrace it.
C) Ignore them.
To put this into context. I use to be friends someone who I spent a LOT of time with, in a time of my life when I would take 100-300 photos EVERY time we went out somewhere. We’re not really friends anymore, so I’m not sure I want to fill up pages and pages of my scrapbook with memories of that person. I DO however want to remember the scenes/places/events we went to. I guess the fourth option is to just include pictures of me/other people, and keep the photos of those people minimal?
I would appreciate your thoughts on the question in general, and also to my specific context…! Thankyou. 
i’ve run into similar situations. either i’d use what photos i liked and tried to crop out the person in question, or only vaguely refer to the person on the page. because i’m not terribly fond of so-and-so, but she was a part of my life at one point.
Yeah, I think that’s what I’ll do- minimize them as much as possible.
Thankyou!!

There is always cropping the photo’s so the persons presence is minimised. I had a similar problem with our wedding photos, there were some people at my wedding I didn’t want there. They sort of invited themselves (fun of having an outdoor wedding in a public place), I choose not to include those photos in my wedding album. I don’t feel that it took anything away from our wedding album.
How rude of people to invite themselves to your wedding! Grrr…
I think I’m going to try and minimize them in the album, and just try to include the photos of other people who were at the events etc.

Minimise, or remove all together. The photos can live elsewhere {a photo box or similar}. That’s what I’d do. HOWEVER. I’m not a stickler for a complete album. Mine are all haphazard.
Yeah, I have all the photos on my computer, so it’s probably not important to include them in the scrapbook. There’s nothing stopping me from adding them again leter if I needed to, right?!
