Do they have to be on photo paper. or can we just print them directly onto paper with the details on the side?

after all this is the digital age right?

All we did is print six photos on a piece of matte photo paper (or as close to it as we could find at SM Fernando), with captions beneath each giving the date and location. The CO didn't even look at them.

In most cases in Manila, photos are *really* secondary evidence if all of your other ducks are in a row.

What I did on our photos (printed on photo paper) for my upcoming interview is paste them on a short bondpaper with a black paper backgound before pasting them on the bondpaper and printed suff for the captions to be pasted on it and I made some art on it. It's like scrapbooking but I didnt over do it though.. After pasting the pics and the captions and after making designs, I put them on a black short clearbook, that clearbook is just the pics which I categorized based on the vacation trips we had (eg, December 2009 Vacation, September 2010 Vacation, June 2011 Vacation).

Good luck. :thumbs:

I printed over 150 pictures (cvs had a sale for 5C ea so it was cheap)

I also wrote down behind the pictures when and where it was taken.

In January I went to visit my fiancee and made sure all the pictures we took had a date stamp on them
