About Us
No matter what you call us we do One Main Thing. We use your photographs to tell your story your way. It is about you, your story, your special moments and we work as closely with you as possible to create a very personal book for you. We actively solicit your feedback during the design process, making necessary revisions along the way. You will have the opportunity to view a virtual copy of your book as it is being designed. Together we will fine tune the design until we meet your expectations. We guarantee that you will be 100% satisfied with the design of your book. Your completed photo book will take pride of place on your coffee table and you will be eager to share it with family and friends.
Old fashioned photo albums are out. Today’s photos are digital and many people are creating digital photo albums to share online with family and friends. Now is the time to take these digital albums to the next level, a printed photo book that you can hold in your hands, sit down and share with grandma, enjoy the vibrant colours of the pictures and read the text. A printed photo book with professional photo finishing and designs that showcase your pictures and bring your memories and family stories back to life will be something you can cherish forever.
Out of the Shoebox is perfect for busy people who don’t have the time to create their own books, for those who find the prospect of designing their own book a little too daunting, or who don’t have the PC skills required to make their own books.
