What makes Shutterfly photo books high quality?
Shutterfly has spent more than 25 years perfecting the art of photo books. With best-in-class print quality, premium materials, and customizable options like layflat pages and photo-wrapped covers, our photo books are designed to become heirloom-worthy keepsakes that can be enjoyed and shared for years to come.
What photo book sizes are available?
Shutterfly photo books are available in a variety of sizes, including 8x8, 8x11, 10x10, 11x8, 11x14, and 12x12. Size availability may vary depending on the photo book style, cover type, and binding option you choose.
What types of photo books can I create?
Shutterfly offers photo books for a variety of occasions and milestones, including travel, wedding, baby, family, graduation, and year-in-review photo books. Choose from a wide range of styles, sizes, and cover options to create a personalized photo book that showcases your favorite memories.
What is a layflat photo book?
Layflat photo books are designed so pages open completely flat, making them ideal for panoramic images and full-page photo layouts. Because there is no raised center seam, photos can extend smoothly across both pages without important details disappearing into the middle of the book. This makes layflat pages especially popular for large landscape photos, wedding portraits, and other images that span an entire spread.
What photo book cover types are available?
Shutterfly offers softcover, glossy hardcover, matte hardcover, and leather cover options. Depending on the photo book style you choose, you can also personalize your cover with photos, text, colors, and design details, including photo-wrapped designs that showcase your photos across the front, back, and spine of the book.
Can someone design my photo book for me?
Yes. Shutterfly's Free 24-Hour Designer Service allows a professional designer to create your photo book for you. Simply upload your photos, share any notes or preferences, and a designer will build your book for review and customization.
Can I customize every page in my photo book?
Yes. Every page of your photo book can be personalized with your own photos, text, layouts, backgrounds, colors, and embellishments. You can use a pre-designed template as a starting point or customize each page to create a completely unique design.
How many pages can a photo book have?
Shutterfly photo books start with 20 pages and can be expanded up to 111 pages. Additional pages are available for an added cost, allowing you to include more photos, stories, and special moments.
How much do photo books cost?
No two photo books are exactly alike, which means pricing depends on the size, cover style, paper type, and page count you choose. We offer options for a range of budgets, along with premium upgrades that can make your book even more special. For a detailed breakdown of photo book pricing, visit our Photo Book Pricing Guide.
