Photo Book Layout: Using the Right Images

When it comes to choosing the right photo book layout for your projects, it’s important to know that you’re choosing the right images for the right spots.

Before you make an effort to create a full, two-page spread with an image, you’ll want to be sure that you look at your options. Laying out a full spread isn’t something that you will want to use a vertical image for (at least without a fair amount of cropping). There’s also the need to consider page bleeds and margins.

Rather than simply choosing an image because it’s something that you want to include, it’s important to consider the overall layout and the theme: not every photo that you’ve taken or that you want to use in the project is going to fit or be a match.

Because choosing the right images is an essential part of laying out your photo book, it’s a good idea to try a few different layout options before finalizing your plans: explore your options.

Whether you are creating photo books to market your work, to tell your story or to present to your clients, it’s important to put thought into both using the right images and placing those images in the best way possible.
