Because birthday parties are usually divided into sections (the games, the eating, the cake, the presents) I’ve been tempted to section my photos that way on a layout. But since those activities often take place in different areas (the kitchen, the living room, the backyard), doing so could cause an uneven color balance on the layout.
Now, I like to mix the different photo events so that two pictures of one activity are at different ends of the page. Not only does it balance the color scheme, it also gives the layout a fun and energetic tone.
