End Papers

Classic photo albums are each created with an end paper to bind the pages and cover together. Choose from either black or white end paper to give your album the perfect finishing touch to match your design. The colour of your end papers will also be the colour of your inside seam.

End Papers
Block Paper Colour

Block Paper Colour

Classic albums feature a gap between each page. This block paper can be either black or white and will match the endpaper selected at checkout.

If your design includes a double-page spread or an image that crosses the centre fold, we strongly recommend that no key subject is placed in the centre, as it will be split during production.

To adjust the position of the image within the picture box, simply double-click in the SIMWARE software. Alternatively, if you are supplying the design as full spreads, you will need to ensure no subject is in the centre fold.

Paper Finish

Our Classic Photo Albums are created with professional Fujifilm DPII Matte photographic paper.

Stiff, middle-weight 270gsm paper with a slight surface sheen and bright white base. A multi award winning paper that’s easy to handle with a great colour gamut.

Standard Boxes

Our presentation boxes are available in four colours:

• Black
• Grey
• Kraft
• White

Available in all main album and book sizes to perfectly match the style of your chosen album.

Smaller Duplicates

Smaller Duplicates

Order your smaller duplicates at the same time as your classic photo album with no need to redesign. These are perfect to add to your package to give out to friends, family and the bridal party or groomsmen.

Smaller duplicates are available at the checkout in a variety of alternate covers and sizes relevant to your design. The internal layout will mimic your main album completely but cover options will have a reduced selection. Choose between hardback photographic lustre paper or select printed paper for a more cost-effective option.

Easy To Order

All photo albums are ordered via our free downloadable SIMWARE software specifically designed to make album creation quick and easy.

Choose from hundreds of our pre-made templates or create your own layouts which you can save to use again and again. If you prefer to design using adobe, indesign, lightroom or photoshop then you can drop your high res page designs straight into the SIMWARE.

If you have any questions on this process or require any help at all, please get in touch with the team who can talk you through this in more detail if required.
