Q: Can I see a sample book? A: YES, just CLICK HERE.
Q: How many photos are in the book? A. The number of pages will be determined by how many photos your oder.
Q: What size are the prints? A. Depends on the book you order. All the books are horizontal with the binding on the left. They open like all books-- right to left. The vertical photographs you chose will be about the same height as the vertical dimension of the book. For the CLASSIC book, this is about 8.75 inches. For the DELUXE book, it is about 11.5 inches. If you choose a horizontal photograph, the horizontal dimension will be a little less than the width of the book. See next Q&A.

Q: Can you place the prints in the COFFEE TABLE BOOK so there is no grey border? A: Sorry, not possible. Vertical photos will have grey border on right and left. See illustration on right. A horizontal photo will have a gray border on top and bottom. If the photograph is horizontal and roughly the size of the book (CLASSIC 8.75 vertical and 11.25 horizontal and DELUXE is 11.5 Vertical x 15 Horizontal), the photo could fill the page. Se illustration on right.
