Not a file you download: a 30 × 30 cm layflat hardcover that arrives by post. Upload the whole set, however messy — bursts, duplicates, screenshots and all. Our own AI, built for photo books, sorts it into chapters and lays out every page; you approve before it prints.
Uploading and reviewing is free. You pay only when you order the printed book.
Upload, approve, unwrap. The sorting, the chapters and the layout are done for you; the decisions stay with you.
The whole holiday in one upload — 50–200 photos, JPEG or HEIC. No pre-sorting; the filter is built for bursts, near-misses and screenshots.
The AI drops the blur and duplicates, groups the rest into chapters and lays out every spread. Rename, swap, reorder — as much or as little as you like — then press approve.
Pay at checkout. The book is printed as a 30 × 30 cm layflat hardcover by Saal Digital in Germany and delivered to your door, typically in 6–10 working days.
MakeAlbum weighs everything you upload — image quality, what is in the frame, dates, GPS and your own brief — then groups the photos into chapters, titles them and lays out the whole photo album. You get a finished book to flip through in minutes, and every chapter, photo and word stays yours to change.

Same couple-focused beach session from golden hour through twilight, plus a relaxed tide-pool sit and close holding-hands details.
Signals: sunset, water, people, location cluster, similar capture time.
A square hardcover with layflat binding, so a photo can run across both pages without disappearing into the spine. Printed and bound by Saal Digital in Germany; paper and cover colour are yours to choose at no extra cost.
Free to try, free to cancel until it prints, and your photos stay yours.
You see the whole book before you pay, and everything is editable: move photos between chapters, swap in frames the AI set aside, rewrite titles, re-roll a layout, pick the cover. Cancel free of charge until it goes to print — anything paid is refunded in full. Rather not build it yourself? Choose Done-for-you (+€59) and our team designs it; you just approve the preview.
Mostly, yes. The AI reads each photo for sharpness, exposure and duplicates, looks at what is in the frame, and uses the time and place it was taken. It sets weak frames aside, groups the rest into chapters, picks the strongest to fill the page count and drafts titles from a two-line brief you write. The one thing it never does is print — the approve button is yours.
Good — that is the input it was built for. Bursts, near-duplicates, screenshots, blurry and badly exposed frames are filtered out automatically, so you do not need to pre-select anything. Whatever the AI set aside stays in a tray in the editor and can be swapped back in with one click.
They are stored privately in EU data centres, never shared, sold or used to train AI models, and deleted 90 days after your order ships — or the moment you delete the album. The print files go to Saal Digital GmbH in Germany only when you order.

“I made a photo album with MakeAlbum and honestly loved the whole experience. The website was easy to use, the process felt simple and intuitive, and the final album turned out really beautiful. What I liked most is that creating the album didn't feel like a complicated design project. Everything was straightforward, and I could focus on the photos instead of fighting with the editor.”
Upload, see the chapters and spreads, and order only if you like what you see. Nothing prints until you approve it; then the book is printed, bound and delivered to your door, shipping included.
