Travel & holiday books

The trip was brilliant. The camera roll isn't.

Two thousand photos, buried under a month of screenshots. Pull out the fifty that mattered, put them in order, and have a printed travel book on the shelf by the time the tan fades.

Books travellers make

One book per trip

Two weeks in Japan, a fortnight interrailing, a long weekend in Lisbon. A single trip is the perfect length for a 24 to 40 page book.

A year of small escapes

No big trip this year? Collect the weekends — the coast, the cabin, the city break — into one book and let the seasons do the sequencing.

The honeymoon or big one

The trip you'll talk about for twenty years is worth a proper hardcover, with the landscapes filling the page.

Landscape usually wins for travel

Most holiday photography is horizontal — beaches, skylines, mountain roads. A4 landscape gives those the width they were shot for.

Square 8.3"

The friendliest shape for phone photos. Portrait and landscape shots both sit happily on the page without a fight.

Four things that make a travel book better

Follow the route, not the ratings

Order the photos by where you went rather than by which are strongest. The book turns into a journey instead of a portfolio.

Keep the boring bits

The train platform, the ferry, the odd breakfast. Travel books that include the in-between moments age far better than the highlights reel.

Photograph the food and the signs

Menus, street signs and shop fronts carry the place and its language. They also break up page after page of scenery.

Put people in the landscapes

A cliff is a cliff. A cliff with your friend standing on it is your holiday. Pick the versions with someone in the frame.

Questions people ask

Can I make one book covering several trips?

Absolutely. Group the photos trip by trip using the page order, and use a plain colour cover with the year on it rather than a single destination photo.

How many photos do I need?

One photo per page as a minimum: 24 pages. You can go well beyond that, and you can put two photos on a page whenever a moment needs a pair.

Will photos from my phone print well?

Yes. Anything from a recent phone prints cleanly at these sizes. The only images to avoid are screenshots, heavily zoomed shots and pictures saved from messaging apps at low quality.

How long does delivery take?

Your book goes to print as soon as the order is paid. Delivery time depends on where you are, and you'll get an email with tracking as soon as it ships.
