PHOTOBOOKS
Have you ever wished you could make your own special book to remember a school reunion, engagement party, wedding, family reunion or holiday, to document a corporate history, or as to give as a gift to your grandparents, your children, to someone special on Valentines Day or when proposing to the love of your life? Photobooks make this possible, and they look far better than you ever imagined!
We transform your scanned negatives, slides or photos into beautiful and long-lasting photobooks. To design your own photobook or album, either collect the software from us or download it from our website. Alternatively bring in a CD or DVD of your images and we lay out, print, bind and present you with the finished product. You customise your photo book so that the end product is unique and incorporates all the features you love. Once you have decided which images to include, you have a choice of paper, layout and design, binding and cover. The result is a fine-looking and professionally made album constructed from durable materials and designed in an artistic and distinctive way.
Children’s Art Photobooks
Your children’s artwork is special, but often lies in a pile under your bed or in a closet for years, becoming tattered and worn. Scan in the artwork with us and prepare a photobook or album, showcasing your child’s artistic development each year. This is a great gift for grandparents who often miss out on some of the day to day happenings of their grandchild’s life.
Corporate Photobooks
Presenting documents professionally reflects the quality of products and services that you offer, and optimises the impression you make on prospective clients. We offer a range of papers, printing, covers and binding, so that the choices you make are appropriate to the function your book will serve.
