Photo Book Cover Options: Which One is Right for You?

At albumworks, we offer two beautiful cover styles for our hardcover photo books. 

  1. Photocover

  2. Premium material cover

A Photocover is a hardcover (or softcover) book where the front, spine and back are fully printable with your own images and text.

Material Covers are where your book is covered in a natural material (linen or faux leather).

Option 1: Photocovers

Perfect for: Holidays, family albums, weddings, baby books, portfolios

Key features: 

  • Vibrant print sealed with matte (or optional lustre) laminate  

  • Your cover design wraps over rigid hardboard; corners precision-trimmed  

  • Fully lined with endpapers and fly leaves (perfect-bound hard cover books) 

Why choose it? 

Photocovers turn your book into a visual showpiece from the very first glance.  We choose photocovers when we want a photo on the cover of the book to tell the story of what’s inside.  It’s also a great choice when you have all your books lined up in a book case as you can put text on the spine so you know exactly which book is which.

Option 2: Premium Material Covers

Perfect for: Gifts, wedding albums, engagements, memorial books, elegant keepsakes

Key features:

  • Available in Buckram fabric or Faux Leather

  • Wide range of elegant colours

  • Hand-finished with folded corners and lined endpapers (for perfect bound books only)

  • Personalise with hot-stamping (gold, silver, or blind debossing)

  • Optional matching slip cases and presentation boxes for a luxury finish

Why choose it?

They are great for when you are looking for an elegant outcome for that special occasion.  They work really well when combined with the debossing option to add text to the photobook.  Beautiful debossing lifts the book to the next level.  As one idea, the silver debossing looks great on a dark fabric because it contrasts well with the dark material
