Major Project Idea

The topic of my project is my nephew.
I will be taking/using pictures of him from when he was born, all the way til how he is right now.
I'll be making a visual with texts included.
The service I'll be doing is a Infogram.
This is the best service because it's simple & it isn't as complicated as the others.
