You can get an instant cost estimate for books and albums — in fact all our products — using our price calculators in Workspace. You can view and compare prices on screen, and even print a PDF.  You'll find the calculators under Prices in the main Workspace navigation.

Copy Albums are easily our most popular "optional extra" and no wonder. They're a really affordable way to spread the album love around family and friends — and perfect for parents, coffee-tables and handbags. What's a Copy Album? As nearly as possible, a small replica of a larger album. You can order copies from Duo, Overlay Matted, Flushmount and Musée originals, but not Q Books or Portrait Albums. They're available in 5-inch, 7-inch and 10-inch sizes (13, 18 and 25cm) — the aspect ratio changes to suit the original. Panorama Flushmount Copy Albums, To View More >>

It's been a few months since we partnered with Lola Photography to support Aqua Frizzante, an exhibition celebrating a love of water, movement, texture and light. We loved it so much, we turned it into a Flushmount Album! This is a 10x10 Flushmount Album, with Tintoretto printing and a Midnight, Distressed Faux Leather cover. Flushmounts are simple and affordable, and ideal for portfolios and short-run photobooks. Contact us about your custom project ideas.

Don't you love the ENTER PROMO CODE box when you're shopping online? Everyone loves a bargain! Workspace coupons allow you to offer discounts in your shopping cart … but why give money away? A few suggestions to think about: – Offer free shipping or a discount if clients spend over a certain amount.  – Throw in something extra. Something that doesn't cost you much time or money, that adds value to their experience without reducing yours! - Offer package deals — maybe digital files with their studio box, or a set of canvases from their To View More >>

Have you thought about running your own workshop? So many photographers do. It’s a great way to pass on your knowledge, build your reputation, and make a bit of money while you’re at it! But where to start? Julz Glover’s “The Workshop” is about the use of online imagery to get clients’ attention and turn them into paying customers. She focuses on food photography in particular, and on Instagram as a promotional tool. She offers both one-on-one and group coaching, but her latest course is online, and accessible to people across the globe. We spoke to To View More >>

Sometimes, it’s the little things that make us smile and these wee "heirlooms" will become more valuable with every passing year. They're mini canvases from a gorgeous home shoot by Justin Aitken. We took a few minutes to enjoy them w hile Helen added the finishing touches, and we'd really love to see how they look on the wall. With the canvas re-launch, and the holiday season now upon us, the lab has been even busier than usual. The response has been amazing and we’re blown away, as always, by the calibre of the photographs we see. Victoria x P.S. To View More >>
