      Portrait Layflat Photobooks

       

      Are you searching for the perfect gift that resonates with deep emotion, or a personal keepsake of a special moment in your life? Discover our exquisite selection of Portrait Lay-Flat Photobooks that are sure to evoke emotions of nostalgia and happiness

      Layflat books can open totally flat without damaging the binding. This makes Layflat Photobooks  ideal for page spreads (where an image prints across two facing pages) giving you a massive continuous photograph look and feel that is simply amazing!

      You may notice with most books (photobooks, hardcover, softcover) a page curl as the pages go into the spine of the book at the center (most people refer to this as the gutter). Because of this page curl, you’ll tend to lose information in this area. Traditionally in book design, you wouldn’t place important content in this area, like text or photos of faces. This also hides parts of an image that are in a 2 page spread, as part of the image on both sides of the book are lost into this gutter area.

      The only way to get around these limitations of regular binding in books, especially photobooks, is to print and bind as a Layflat photobook. 

      Immerse yourself in a world of personalized albums that capture the essential moments that need to be shared and never lost. So, spoil those closest to your heart with a touch of sentiment and tenderness through our thoughtfully curated photobook options that vividly portray your life story in a way that words cannot adequately express.

       

       

      Layflat Photobook Cover Options & Finishes

      Enhance your Portrait Lay-Flat Photobook cover with our diverse selection of options, including standard, luxury hardcover or personalized.

       On our Luxury or Standard covers why not add a touch of elegance with gold or silver foiling that brings in a sense of luxury.

      Choose a cover that reflects your individuality and design choices. After all, photobooks are all about you and your memories, so make them truly personal  –  PHOTO2PRINT where personalization meets elegance.

      Binding Method

      Hardcover Layflat Binding

      Layflat binding is a method where printed sheets are scored and folded and then  glued together forming a thicker sturdy  page. These landscape spreads are then formed into a book block that allows pages to open flat without the traditional gutter known for in glue binding. This creates a gorgeous collection of uninterrupted panoramic spreads. The book block is then encased into a hardcover and end sheets are added to create the lux look and feel the product is well known for.

      Paper Selections

      Depending on your product selection you can enhance your high-quality Portrait LayFlat Photobooks further with different paper options.

      Digital where pages are printed on 170gsm Matt in the same way most other Photobooks are on our high end digital presses,
      Or our standard Photographic Matt or Gloss Prints through our Fuji Film Frontier Photographic Printer.

      It’s all about personalizing  the look and feel at PHOTO2PRINT

      Additional Optional Extras

      Elevate the look and feel of your personalized photobook with our range of optional extras available on checkout. Add a touch of sophistication with UV Varnish per page or opt for a sleek Matt Sand Lamination finish on your personalized cover.

      The times we are living in, receiving good service is very hard to come by! But I have received only the best service from Photo2print! I was in a pickle as I urgently needed my photo book without the recommended waiting time. They somehow fast tracked the printing and arranged the courier to deliver the book to my door! Beautiful book! Thank you! You guys are legends!!!
