Okay, well I already made and paid for prints, so that won't work. Lol!

This is almost exactly what I did, only I didn't label the paper in addition to the photos. It's good to have the photos affixed to a piece of paper like this. If you go the baggie route, I recommend stapling the baggie to the bottom of the paper so the top is free for the acco fasteners the adjudicator will use to assemble your file.

I just glued the photos to a blank piece of paper, 2 per page. Next to each picture I wrote 1 sentence, for example: John and Bettina during their vacation in Quarteira, Portugal: November 11th 2008. Then I put the pages in the right order...from the beginning of our relationship to the wedding, so it makes sense to the person at USCIS looking at the pictures. :-)

Shoot for the moon - even if you miss, you'll land among the stars...

I wrote dates and places on the back of each and then put them into a ziploc bag, 2-hole punched it and stuck it on the Acco fastener.

Who has 100 extra Acco fasteners lying around? I do! :)

I ended up just writing the descriptions on the backs of the photos and then arranging them inside of a clear 8 1/2 X 11 sleeve and then attatching them to the acco fastener. It looked really good!
