We Offer the Finest Hard Bound /
Book Bound / Leather Bound Photo Books (Book-Style Albums) Created from Your
Own Personal Photographs.
You Provide the Photos (or
Have Us Photograph Your Event) and We
Design and Produce One or More Unique Copies of a Custom Photo Book for You
As a preview of our work, there are
approximately 75 layout samples in the slideshow, below. Samples are from
travel, weddings, safaris, and other events. Examples include covers,
first and last pages, and many two-page spreads (those spreads being the
majority of layouts seen in any given book). For complete, end-to-end book
examples, please visit our
Sample Layouts
and End-to-End Books section.
Whether we photograph your event for you, or you provide us your
existing digital images, we can create a custom,
personalized, hard
bound coffee table book of those images. We design professional-level
books that are not to be confused with the more cheaply manufactured
albums offered by other companies and online service providers
-- and the differences
are unmistakable. And, for clients who wish to order multiple
book copies, additional copies of
each custom designed book are available at substantial discounts
based on number of books ordered.
We Are Professional, Custom Coffee Table Photo
Book
Designers/Producers
Coffee table book-style
wedding, event, and family photo books are hard bound (book bound) and constructed
and styled very much like published books straight off the shelves of your
favorite bookstore. In fact, the quality, look, and feel of these books
is the better than most the finest of those bookstore offerings, because the
page stock that we use is better than what most publishers are willing to use in
mass-produced books. And the books we
produce contain your
photos. From your wedding, your special event (company, family, or other
event), your family history photos, travel/adventure, or any other collection of digital images
you cherish enough to preserve in book form. We can even use older printed
photographs to create our books. We use your photos and create
professional, hard bound books from them. Our books are not simple slip-in,
sleeve style albums, but books produced through a professional publication process with
images printed on the actual pages of the books, and those pages are something
to behold in person. The pages of the books we
design and publish are better than anything we've seen sold in bookstores, even
in the finest of coffee table photo books. These books are true show
pieces to display
proudly and certainly the kind of keepsakes to hand down from one generation to the
next. And, if you don't have access to digital copies of
your photos and
have only hard copy prints to work from, we can work with you to create digital
copies of those
photos, retouch and/or restore them as necessary, and produce as fine a book as can be made
for you from the photographs you have. We can also provide in-house
writing and editing services for text to be included in books.
The coffee table style books we design are sometimes known
as storybook photo albums or books, digital photo albums or books, magazine style albums
or books,
coffee table albums, digital coffee table albums,
and digital story book albums. These are just a few of the names by which
these albums are generically labeled. But very few, if any, have the quality of
what we design and produce. We have yet to see their equal anywhere.
Our book
bound photo books and albums
are often produced for our wedding and event customers, but can
be produced for many other purposes upon request. They are great final
products for special company and corporate events, sports events, family
reunions and family photo collections, or vacation/travel
digital images. We can produce the photos for you if you hire
us to shoot your event, or we can take
your existing digital or printed photo collections and design professional, hard
bound photo books for you.
Base Book Prices Range from $700 to $2000.
Substantial Discounts Available for Additional Matching Books or Multiple Copies
Notes on Pricing and "Cheap" or
Inexpensive Books
We produce books that are
among the highest quality that can be found, and we produce them for
those who want the best.
Please Note: Due to
steadily increasing inquiries about our custom coffee table book design
and production services, we feel we must place a
few notes on quality and expense here. For the visitor to our
site who is looking for "cheap" and inexpensively produced books,
you will not find those here. While there are
certain sources for
cheap photo books, the purchaser of such books should be cautioned that
anyone buying a cheaply made and cheaply sold book will certainly get
what's paid for in making the purchase. Typically, such books that
can be bought cheaply can be seen by virtue of price alone as warning
sign about what can be expected. Low price generally means low quality pages and covers, questionable workmanship, poor
production values, and little or no attention paid to design aesthetics
and layout options -
and usually, little attention paid to what the client would really like
to have.
In some cases, such lack in quality is of little concern, when all the
purchaser wants
is a cheaply and inexpensively published book. However, we DO NOT produce those
kinds cheaply made and cheaply sold books. "Cheap" books are not something we
will allow ourselves to be
associated with on any level, so we work with only the best books. A really good quality, custom
designed and personalized coffee table photo book simply
cannot be produced and sold cheaply. The production cost alone
from a professional book publisher prohibits selling them as inexpensive
items. Design and layout time, if the books are done with proper
care and attention to detail, generally requires many days
-
sometimes weeks, cumulatively
-
of professional design effort in collaboration with the client. If you, as our client, want the best possible
quality coffee table photo book produced from your photos, and you want the
designers and producers to pay attention to what you envision in terms of
layout, design and production, then you can contact us with confidence.
We can design a book as simply or elaborately as the client wants, but
all of our books (whether simple or complex in design) emphasize
high-quality design and production values.
We take the necessary time
and make a conscientious effort to produce some of the finest personalized coffee table
photo books that can be made. We work only with the best
publishers in the business to ensure that ours are among the most outstanding
personal coffee table books in which any individual or family can
invest. We take the time to create multiple design layout options
for each of our books, and during the design phase we give our clients
multiple visual choices for every page in their book. We actively
solicit our client's feedback at several stages during book design to
ensure that each book evolves into as fine a finished product as
possible.
A great coffee table photo book is not designed and
published in a day or two and in most cases not even in a week or two. Although we
can work quickly when needed (and occasionally, quick designs and
turnaround are
needed), most of our books take several weeks to finalize due to our
attention to detail and our willingness to make necessary revisions along the way based on client feedback.
You give us your photos and your initial book ideas, and we present you with an
initial design concept. You provide feedback on that design, and we
respond in whatever way necessary to incorporate further input from you.
Sometimes, our initial designs are exactly on target with what the client
wants, and at other times we need to make certain layout revisions to
fine-tune the books. We are willing to go through the fine-tuning
process until each book has grown from a mere initial concept into a fully
fleshed-out book that meets the client's expectations.
Our final designs are printed on
exceptionally high quality book pages and optionally bound in leather (in finely
boxed leather volumes or designed with photo-style book covers and
matching dust jackets). The paper/print stock used by our
publishers/binders puts
even the best of book store coffee table books to shame
– this is
no exaggeration, but simple fact. The pages and paper stock used
in our books are designed for photo printing (to bring out the best in
each book's photos), and not merely text-quality pages that happen to
have photos printed on them. The difference in look and feel is
unmistakable. The look and feel of the pages in our books is
simply stunning. The word we hear most often when a
client first views one
of our books in person is (literally), "Wow!" And
there is truly a lot of "wow" factor in our books, a big part of which
is our publisher's/binder's dedication to exceptionally high production
values necessary in producing high-end coffee table photo books.
From our dedicated design and layout efforts through the publisher's/binder's book
production materials and techniques, the best in design and production
values go into our books.
Our books are not "cheap,"
but when you hold the final product in your hands, and page through the
captured moments of your life that you cared about enough to preserve in
coffee table book form, you know that your money has been well invested. So, if
you are really looking for the best you can get (heirloom quality), you are looking in the
right place -
and we welcome your inquiries. And, we
sincerely thank you for considering our design and publication services.
