“When you live far away from family members and aren’t able to see them as often as you’d like, exchanging pictures of silly, spontaneous moments and of course major childhood milestones becomes your way of keeping in touch,” said Courtney Nisbet, working mother and member of Shutterfly’s Customer Advisors program, a select group of both new and frequent users who work directly with the company on continuous improvements of its service. “Shutterfly has the most creative ways for sharing all of our good times. Photo Books are a terrific addition, and they’ll help our loved ones feel close to us even when they can’t be.”
