How to Create a Photo Book With Thick Pages

Photo books allow you to show off your photos in a professional-looking way, and you can create a theme for your book, such as Christmas, an anniversary or a year in review. To create a photo book with thicker pages you can request the thickest paper when you place your order for the book, or you can make it yourself. Ordering a photo book from a local photo shop will give you a quality book with binding that will last. Capture today's memories for tomorrow and make a photo book online. Many sites allow you to upload photos, adding and subtracting them, until you design a book you love.

Instructions

- 1
  Select a group of photographs for the photo book. Ideas include baby's first year, your wedding day, a vacation, graduation, pets, milestones or a family reunion. Utilize a website that will allow you to create the book from the comfort of your own home. Choose your local photo lab's website and pick up the book when it is ready or use any number of sites online and have your book shipped to you.

  Choose a photo book template, a cover for the book and a style format. This is where you can ask for the thickest paper available. Some sites will have an option for the paper used, but other sites already use a thick, high-quality paper weight. Other options you might be able to choose for the paper are matte or gloss finish.

  Upload photos and add captions. Play around with the pictures and their sequence. You can tell a story by the way you place the pictures.

  Place your order for the book and decide how many copies you need. Photo books make thoughtful gifts for grandparents, friends and family.
