Photobooks
The digital age ushered in a new phenomenon, the "My Pictures" folder. Many households across the world now have one, usually filled to the brim with photos of family, friends, pets, holidays and adventures. Having these photos easily accessible on a hard drive is useful, but printing photos for display requires that you have:
- time
- knowledge on how to manipulate and correct images
- the right software, plus a good quality printer
- money to feed the rapidly depleting ink tanks
- patience to fiddle with traditional photo albums
At Lola Print we are able to take your photos and use them to create high quality personalised photobooks, suitable for coffee tables everywhere. They are ideal as gifts and for archiving a lifetime of wonderful memories.
We have a range of page templates that allow for various layout combinations so that we can make the most of your images.
Our digital laser printers produce brilliant results, and most importantly we do the hard work. Using our skills and powerful Adobe CS3 software we ensure that each image is optimised for print.
There are just four easy steps to your own Photobook
- You need to identify and gather your photos together. Ideally in digital format, although traditional photographs will be fine as we have scanning facilities available. (Try to ensure you provide at least 70 images — and in chronological/themed order if you can).
- Contact Lola Print on 0118 981 0212 to let us know you are ready. Our Designer will arrange to meet you at Lola Print or at your home (maximum of 25 mile radius from Lola Print) to download/collect the images, gather information and discuss your particular preferences. Alternatively you can send your photos by post on CD, DVD, or on a memory card. We also have an upload facility available. And from the beginning you will be able examine one of our sample photobooks so that you know exactly what you are purchasing.
- We will contact you once the page templates are ready for proofing, and then meet with you so you can check them on screen, request changes, add captions, and place your order.
- Sit back and enjoy the view. We are confident you will love seeing your photos in this new and enduring format. But be ready to place extra orders... Family and friends will want one.
We take pride in the fact that Lola Print offers a competively priced and unique service, with our designer taking responsibility for each of our clients. It make such a difference knowing that there is a person on the other end of the process rather than more impersonal online automated services.
Ideas for Photobooks...
The "Now You Are" Series - perfect for celebrating a birthday. Once the big day has come and gone, collect up the photos covering the past year and create your photobook. It makes a lovely and timeless gift for family and friends, and in the longer term gives you/your children a means to remember the past.
The “In Memory Of” Series - a means of charting the life of a Loved One who has passed away. Initially when bereaved it is not easy to look at photos of those we lose, but as time goes by and we come to terms with their going, so there is good cause for celebrating their life, and remembering them in colour.
The “My Pet” Series - one for your favourite member/s of the animal kingdom. Love your dog, or your mogg, then why not capture their essence in print.
The “Adventure of a Lifetime” Series - for those epic moments you have faced; desert wandering, crossing continents, taking to the skies... With a Photobook you can let others in on your journey.
The “Wonderful Holiday” Series - for memories of the great places you have seen on your travels
The “Corporate” Series - a photobook detailing factual information and graphical representations of your business. Better than a slide show!
