How many photographs fit in a 20-page album.

Pages, spreads and photographs

An album has 20 pages, which is 10 spreads. Every extra spread is added on request: $15 for 20 × 20, $20 for 25 × 25 and $25 for 30 × 30 cm. An album can grow to 40 spreads.

On a spread, one photograph can fill both pages, or several can share them. The editor has layouts for any number of photographs from one to twenty-four on a spread, so the count follows the story and not the template.

A rule of thumb

• One to three photographs per spread reads as an album; four or more reads as a contact sheet.
• Give the strongest frames a whole page, or a whole spread.
• Run a panorama across the fold on the 30 × 30 cm size, where the spread is widest.
• Let a few spreads hold six or more small frames, as a pause between big ones.

If you have more

Add spreads in the editor before you order. After approval and payment the layout cannot change, so decide before you approve.
