![]() Saal Digital can print a book as small as just 26 pages starting at $35.99, or up to 160 pages. Full page photos, double-page spreads, or multiple pictures per page? This will help you determine how many photos you want to include or, conversely, how many pages your book will need to be. At this point it’s good to start giving some thought to the size of the book, the number of pages, and the nature of the layout. With the theme in mind it’s time to choose which photos you’d like to include. In the end you will be happier with a book that has a clear message and limited scope. ![]() Whatever your direction for the book, keep it focused and stick to the theme. It’s easy enough, after all: what’s the book about? Are you making a wedding gift for a friend, or perhaps organizing grandma’s family photos into a commemorative album? Maybe you’re a traveler documenting a trip to Paris or a budding professional building a portfolio. Start by determining the theme of your book. Based on what I learned along the way, here are ten tips for creating a great photo book. In about an hour I created a book filled with special photos of my family. (The initial layout looked great and would’ve worked fine, and actually took less than a minute!) The variety in sizes, covers and paper stocks is impressive, so whether you’re making a high-end wedding album, an artist’s portfolio or a fun scrapbook, there’s something for everyone. ![]() Spoiler alert: it did take longer than 60 seconds, but only because I spent time fine tuning the layout to give my favorite photos prominence in the design. I recently tried Saal Digital’s tremendous “One Minute Photo Book” system and was impressed by the ease of the process and the quality of the results. There are many great reasons to make photo books, and thankfully lots of great options for making a book that fits your personal style. Photo books are also a great way to create a professional-looking portfolio, or to commemorate the trip of a lifetime. Photo books are a great way to create family heirlooms, whether a collection of family photos or a wedding album. ![]()
