Choose from our high-quality papers for your photo book

We have taken great care to select our paper and are very proud to offer you two high-quality finishes for your photo books. We have chosen these papers for the impeccable quality that they give your printed photos with a choice of a matte or slightly glossy photo finish. Your photo books will be printed on our high-quality paper at our very own printing studio, before being bound with great precision. Our friendly customer service team will also be on hand throughout this process to keep you up to date with the progress of your order! They will also be more than happy to advise you on your choice of high-quality paper. Please note that whichever paper you choose, the cover of your photo book will be satin-coated and therefore slightly glossy. Our satin coating allows your photo books to stand the test of time, as you flick through your photos on a regular basis.

Our photo book maker allows you to upload your photos from multiple sources and you can choose how you wish to lay them out on each page.
