Old photo’s into a photo book?

I have recently met with an 85 year old Aunt who I haven’t seen since I was 2.5years she said. All due to family divorce. I’d like to make her a photo book of my life growing up to include my husband and children. However most of the photo’s are ones that were taken via an instant camera or 35mm etc and I don’t have the negatives now, just the photo's. Apart from removing all the photo’s from various albums and possibly scanning them into a computer is there another quicker way I could copy these photo’s and make a photo book up online can anyone suggest please? Many thanks.

    Could you take a photo of each photo with a digital camera and they will all be on your memory card?

    Then it would be straight forward, getting a book done.

    I did think of that but didn’t think the quality would be good enough to have printed. I’ve tried this before without success. I’ll give it another try and see. Thanks.

    Her brother was my Dad and I don’t have any photo’s of him who sadly died a few years ago without me tracing him in time.
