THE ALBUM PROCESS
We have many options to bring your fabulous images to life. We offer luxury, bespoke albums designed by us in-house or for a more accessible option, you can order prints and coffee table books (starting from £145) through our online shop.
01 ALBUM SIZE
Size is one of the most important decisions when creating your album. It dictates how many images you can add. If you choose a package that includes a stanard sized album (20x20cm), you can easily upgrade and will only pay the price difference between sizes. Alternatively, extra pages can be added to smaller-sized albums to allow for more images.

02 cover material
Choosing our albums allows you to pick your material and colour. If you’re thinking of adding text to the cover it’s important to check for compatibility of materials and treatments. Some text treatments are too invasive to use on specific materials and it’s best to keep this in mind while making your selection. Our swatch guides below show a sample image with the name, code and treatment symbol. Please pay close attention to the symbols as NOT ALL treatments can be applied to all materials.
Treatments and symbols
UV – UV print; this technology prints a non-invasive layer on the material and is available on most materials and does not have a character limit.
L – Laser-etching; this technology exposes the base layer of the leatherette. Due to its invasive character, this technology is available on selected materials.
E – Embossed; this technology impresses a book-binding font which can be left plain or with your choice of coloured foil; gold, rose gold, silver or plain. Also, the character count is limited to 25 which includes spaces and is available in one font on most leatherettes but NOT ALL.
