Embed Google Photos Albums<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I really love organizing my photos into albums BUT Google Photos frustrates me as they don’t provide an option to embed my Google Photo albums into my website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve been searching for the solution for the past year and tried numerous solutions including some WordPress plugins.  None suited what I was looking for until now!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Albums are just collections of photos and in your Google Photo account. You can add up to 20,000 photos or videos to an album and you can also add things like maps and text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
