What are the differences between soft cover and hard cover photo books?

The differences between soft cover and hard cover photo books are the same as the differences between hard cover and paperback books. A hard cover tends to be more durable than a soft cover, but soft cover books typically cost and weigh less. Some people find it easier to flip through the pages of a soft cover book since it bends in your hands. Ultimately, the choice is a matter of personal preference, so choose the type of book that appeals to you.

What size photo book do I need?

When choosing a photo book size, consider the pictures you want to include and where you plan to store the books. A photo with a lot of detail, like a landscape or a cityscape, tends to look better on a bigger page so you can see elements like people in the background or texture on buildings. You don’t need as big a page for portraits. If you plan to display your photo books on a coffee table, you may appreciate the look of an 8x10 book. A 4x6 book is convenient to carry in a bag, and a 5x7 book sits nicely on a shelf with your collection of paperbacks.

How do I create a photo book?

When you choose the type of photo book you want to buy, you’ll see the prompts to customize the book. You get to select the size and type of cover. Then you upload your photos, choose page layouts, and arrange the photos in the book. You can opt to pick up your completed book in a store or ship it to your home.
