Create an anniversary photo book from your posts together

Five years. Ten years. Twenty-five. However long you've been together, there's a Facebook or Instagram feed that proves it. The vacation photos, the anniversary dinners, the random Tuesday selfies, the posts where you tagged each other in something dumb and sweet. You've been documenting your relationship one post at a time. My Social Book turns all of that into a printed anniversary photo book.

No uploading photos one by one. No spending a weekend designing pages. Connect your account, preview the book in under three minutes, and order. Your relationship's timeline, on paper, ready to give or keep.

How to create your anniversary photo book

Step 1: Connect Facebook, Instagram, or Dropbox. Head to the book creation page and link your account. My Social Book reads your posts and pulls in every photo, caption, date, like count, and location tag. Nothing gets posted or changed on your account. If you have couple photos scattered across platforms, you can combine Facebook and Instagram into one book.

Step 2: Preview your auto-generated book. In seconds, you'll see a full book — every post organized by date. The early relationship posts come first. Then the engagement, the wedding, the honeymoon, the anniversaries, the vacations, the ordinary life in between. It reads like a love story told chronologically, because that's exactly what it is. Scroll through every page for free.

Step 3: Customize and order. Remove posts that don't belong — the work stuff, the political shares, whatever. Keep the posts that tell your story. Set the date range: maybe you want a book starting from the day you met, or just the last five years, or just one standout year. Choose your cover photo. Pick your format: hardcover glossy (most popular), softcover glossy (best value), or hardcover matte (premium). Books range from 25 to 450 pages.

Why your couple photos deserve a real book

You probably have more photos of your relationship than any generation before you. And you probably look at them less than any generation before you. They're on your phone, thousands deep in a camera roll you never scroll back through. They're on Facebook, buried under years of posts. An anniversary photo book brings them back to the surface and puts them where they actually get seen — on a shelf, on a nightstand, on the coffee table.

The captions tell the story the photos can't. The vacation photo shows you on a beach. The caption you wrote that night says "Day 4, rain finally stopped, found the best fish tacos of our lives, she negotiated the price in Spanish I didn't know she spoke." That specific detail is the kind of thing you'll forget in five years but will love reading in ten. My Social Book prints every caption right next to the photo, exactly as you wrote it.

It captures the ordinary, not just the big moments. Anniversary photo books from traditional editors tend to look curated — wedding photos, vacations, holidays. A book made from your social media includes all of that, plus the everyday stuff. The Sunday morning coffee photo. The "we built IKEA furniture and survived" post. The grocery store selfie. Those mundane moments are what a real relationship looks like, and they make the book feel honest in a way that curated albums never do. Preview yours free and see what we mean.

It works as a gift or a keepsake. A printed book of your years together is one of the best anniversary gifts you can give a partner. It's personal in a way that's hard to match — you're literally giving them the story of your life together. But it's also something you can make for yourself, as a couple, to have on the shelf and add to year after year.

What's included in your anniversary photo book

• Your couple photos — every photo you posted together, printed at full quality with automatic page layouts.
• Captions — your original words from each post. The love notes, the travel stories, the jokes, the tags.
• Dates — every post timestamped so your book reads like a relationship timeline.
• Likes — see which couple moments your friends and family loved most.
• Locations — restaurants, cities, vacation spots, the place you got engaged. If you tagged it, it's in the book.
• 25 to 450 pages — a one-year anniversary book might be 30 pages. A decade-long book could be 200+.
• Hardcover or softcover — three formats available: softcover glossy, hardcover glossy, hardcover matte.
• Chronological layout — your relationship unfolds from the first post to the most recent, like a visual timeline.

Frequently asked questions

Can I include posts from both partners' accounts?

Not directly from two separate Facebook or Instagram accounts in one book session. But there's a simple workaround: both partners save their favorite couple photos to a shared Dropbox folder, then use that Dropbox as the book source. Alternatively, you can make the book from one partner's Facebook account — since tagged couple photos usually appear on both feeds, one account often captures most of the shared moments.

How many years can the book cover?

As many as you want. You can go back to whenever you or your partner first created a Facebook or Instagram account. Some couples have 15+ years of social media history. Books hold up to 450 pages, so even a very long relationship with heavy posting fits in one volume. If you'd rather make it focused, set the date range to cover just the last year, or just the time since your wedding, or any period you choose.

Can I pick a specific date range?

Yes. When you preview the book, you set a start date and end date. Want just your first year of dating? Set those dates. Want everything from the day you met to today? Set those instead. Want a book that covers only the year between your 9th and 10th anniversary? That works too. The date range is entirely up to you.

What's the best format for a couple's anniversary book?

Hardcover glossy is the most popular choice for anniversary gifts — it feels substantial, looks polished, and holds up well over time. If you're making a book as a personal keepsake and want something with a refined, modern feel, hardcover matte is the premium option. Softcover glossy is the best value if you're ordering multiple copies or making annual books. All formats are 21cm x 25cm.

Can I use this for a wedding anniversary gift?

It's one of the best anniversary gifts you can give. A printed book of every post you've shared together — the dates, the places, the captions you wrote — is deeply personal and almost impossible to replicate with any other product. For milestone anniversaries (5th, 10th, 25th), a book covering the full span of years makes the occasion feel proportional. Create it from your Instagram account for the most visual version, or from Facebook for the richest captions and context.

Your love story is already documented

You've been posting about your relationship for years. The dates are saved. The captions are written. The photos are there, hundreds or thousands of them, organized by the day they happened. Your anniversary photo book already exists — it's just sitting in a social media feed where nobody scrolls back far enough to appreciate it.

Print it. Put it on a shelf. Give it as a gift. Or just make it for the two of you, so the next time you want to remember what year that trip to Portugal was, you can flip to the right page instead of scrolling back through four years of posts.
