Design Services

Once you’ve purchased Design Services ($119 Design Fee), an Account Manager will reach out to gather information about your album vision and pair you with a designer. We will also recommend the best number of photos to upload based on the number of pages in your album. Please note that the max total of images is 200 for an album with max page count of 90 pages. Photo libraries larger than our standard gallery size of 200 images can be curated for an additional fee.

Once your photos are uploaded, your designer will reach out via email with the first draft of your project to review within 5 business days. You'll use a proofing tool to communicate any changes needed to your designer during the two rounds of revisions included (additional revisions are $50 each). Depending on the frequency of feedback and number of design revisions, it can take 2–3 weeks to complete the design.

Once the design is complete and confirmed by you, the album will be placed in your cart with the book deposit applied, ready for you to purchase. You will also have access to the final designed album in your account projects.

We design Signature Layflat, Wedding Layflat, and Layflat photo albums with a page range of 30–90 pages. Here’s an idea of the images you’ll be asked to upload and the estimated total used for each page count:



Have more than 200 images? We can help you narrow those down to the best of the bunch for your album with our Photo Curation Service.

For Guest Book designs, we recommend fewer photos to allow extra space for handwritten notes at the event.

Explore sizes, fabric colors, and foil options, and foil stamping designs for our different layflat options. Currently Design Services can design these album types: Signature Layflat, Wedding Layflat Album, Wedding Guest Book, or Layflat Album.
You can compare the different foil stamping options for each layflat in this help article. At this time, we do not offer custom layouts beyond what is available in our editor.

We can refund the design fee so long as no design work has begun. Read our full Terms and Conditions.

Specific Design Services promotions may be available from time to time or through partnerships, and may not be combined with other offers. Gift cards, Wedding Albums Collections credit, and Zola credits can be applied to the final cost of the album upon checkout with the final design. Sitewide sales and promotions may not be applied to the Design Service fee or shipping costs, but can be applied toward the printing costs of your album. Read our full Terms and Conditions.

To have multiple unique albums designed within one order, we offer additional Design fees at $50 per additional album.
If you want to use Design Services in combination with a Wedding Albums Collection, please mention this when working with your Account Manager.
Multiple copies of the same album can be ordered directly from your account after design completion.

Images must be in the sRGB color space. Images must be less than 25MB, although we recommend having them be 4–7MB for easy upload. Images will print best when in the range of 150–300 DPI. For further clarification, click here.
