PHOTO SIZES

The size that works

If you only read one thing in this guide, let it be this: print your photos at 6 × 4 inches (15 × 10 cm). This is the size our albums are built around. They slot in perfectly! No trimming, no resizing, no stress. It's the most forgiving format we know. Small enough to feel intimate, large enough to see every detail.

HOW MANY PHOTOS

There is no perfect number.
But there is a rhythm.

Less is rarely better. More is rarely worse. What matters is that the story feels complete, not that every frame is a masterpiece.

100-150

The Focused Edit

One chapter, tightly told. Ideal for an engagement session, a solo trip, or a single event where less really is more.

150-200

The Sweet Spot

Enough room to breathe, enough to feel full. Works beautifully for a wedding day, a holiday, or a year of family life.

200-300

The Full Chapter

A generous, rich archive. Perfect when you want to capture the whole story including the in-between moments that matter most.

CHOOSING YOUR PHOTOS

Let how it felt guide you

Choosing photos for your photo album can be the hardest part. Forget perfect pictures. Look for the photographs that tell the story. Here’s the filter we always come back to.

Choose movement over poses
The photo where someone is laughing at the wrong moment will always outlast the perfectly staged portrait. Reach for movement, emotion and the moments that happened naturally.

Show relationships, not just faces
Two hands. A sideways glance. Someone leaning in. The little interactions between people are often the photographs that mean the most years later, not the ones where everyone is looking at the camera.

Capture the atmosphere
Your photo album doesn’t have to be full of people. Photograph the flowers on the table, the meal you shared, the hotel room, the street you wandered down, the beach, the view from the train, or the little details you noticed along the way. These photographs help tell the whole story and bring you right back.

Welcome imperfection
Soft focus, blur, closed eyes, crooked frames. These are welcome here. Your photo album is proof, not polish. If a photograph makes you feel something, it belongs.

BEFORE YOU PRINT

Four things that make your photos print beautifully.

Our albums are designed to be forgiving, but a few simple things will help your photographs look their best in print.

Use the original, high resolution file

Upload the photo from your phone or camera. Avoid screenshots or images saved from social media, as they’re compressed and can lose detail when printed.

Go easy on the editing

What looks dramatic on your phone can look very different on paper. Go easy on heavy filters, extreme contrast and sharpening. Natural edits translate beautifully into print.

Give your photos some breathing room

Keep important details away from the very edges of your image, especially faces. A little space around your subject gives us more room to work with when your photographs are printed and placed in your album.

Trust your phone camera

Modern phone cameras take beautiful photographs, and they are more than good enough for your album. You don't need a professional camera to make photographs worth printing. The real moment matters more than the camera.
