Why You Should Present Your Photos in a Photo Book

27 August 2024

While we love the immediacy of online sharing, there's something special about holding a physical memory. If you have a favourite photo or series of photos, we are firm in the belief that it should be printed and presented in your home for all occupants and visitors to admire.

We love all types of prints, from small prints that can be preserved in a family photo album, poster prints that form a gallery wall and take pride of place on your living room wall, and a carefully sequenced photo book - that’s what we are here to talk about today.

Photo books and prints can bring your photos to life and create a lasting legacy for you and your loved ones. Here's why you should consider using a photo book to present your next collection of photographs.


Are photo books worth it?

Photo books offer a unique way to present and preserve your photography, regardless of subject matter. Whether it's a collection of cherished family moments, breathtaking travel photos, or anything else that sparks joy, a photo book transforms your digital images into a polished and pride-inducing keepsake. You can even digitise your old images and give them a lifeline in a photo book.


Placed on a coffee table, a photo book is an invitation to share memories and spark conversations. Photo books travel effortlessly from hand to hand, encouraging connection and allowing you to relive captured moments with loved ones.

Photo Books vs Photo Albums

Photo albums and photo books offer distinct ways to preserve memories. Photo albums hold a certain charm, allowing photos and keepsakes to accumulate organically over time. You can add, remove, and rearrange photos, making them a personal and ever-evolving record. However, photo books present a finished product, showcasing your best images in a considered and finalised layout. 

This curated approach makes them ideal gifts, offering a cohesive visual narrative for friends and family. While photo albums capture the sentimental journey of our memories, these days you can make your own photo book cheap. As they are visually stunning and undoubtedly more professional than an album, they are a perfect way to share our most cherished moments.
