Opt for an Imagewrap cover for a sleek, full-photo design, a Softcover for a lightweight and flexible feel, a Debossed hardcover for a classic, textured touch, or a Deluxe hardcover for an elegant and premium finish. Each cover type adds a unique charm to your photobook, making it perfect for preserving your special moments.
4. What binding options can I choose from?
We offer three popular binding options for you to choose from. Premium layflat binding allows for seamless panoramic spreads, perfect for showcasing wide images. Flush mount binding features thick, durable pages for a premium and luxurious feel. Standard binding (formerly perfect binding) gives your photobook a timeless, book-like finish. Each option enhances your photobook experience, ensuring your memories are beautifully preserved.
5. What is a good size for a photobook?
If you’re looking for a compact keepsake, our 8” x 8” photobook is a great choice. For a balanced mix of space and convenience, our medium-sized options — 11” x 8.5” and 8” x 11” are perfect. If you prefer something more spacious, the 14”x10” photobook is a fan favourite. Want to go even bigger? Check out our 15” x 11”, 16” x 12”, or 12” x 12” sizes. And for those who love a bold, statement-making album, our extra-large sizes — 17.5” x 12”, 14” x 14”, and 14” x 20” deliver maximum impact. No matter which size you choose, your memories will be beautifully preserved.

Some photobooks start with a minimum of 20 pages, while others can go up to 400 pages for thicker, more comprehensive albums.
