Our take on wedding trends straight from a fashion magazine cover

Have you noticed an ongoing trend, where couples search for photo products inspired by well-known high-fashion magazines? To adhere with the trend, a product has to be portrait-formatted, with clearly laid out photos to boot. It has to be elegant, bright and not too thin at the same time. At some point in the near future, you may find yourself dealing with these kinds of requirements for a booking. Our suggestions are sure to meet those needs, should one of your orders call for an album truly reminiscent of a fashion magazine.

When choosing and designing a product inspired by high-profile magazines, a portrait (or square) format is crucial - one with an appropriately matched cover type at that. The quantity of pages is just as a important; the more pages you have, the more space you'll have for captivating captions, personal quotes, dates, or even a few supplementary graphics. To ensure that a Photo Album stands out from the orthodox approach, unleash your creative side in the designing process, crafting it in such a way that it resembles a modern fashion journal. Here's one way to do it:

Position your captions, headers, backgrounds, and photos in a more varied manner by experimenting with different sizes, one object next to the other. One could even try to make some elements appear more crooked than others, as if someone had hastily glued them into the album. Leave plenty of space between each photo to create a brighter appearance, giving your project a light and modern look.

The following products are a perfect fit for a magazine-like project:

Photo Album sized at 20x30cm/8x12" (portrait) with a printed cover (formerly known as the Creative 100% collection)

A similar format to A4, with a printed cover that can be designed to imitate a magazine cover. This Photo Album can house between 5 and 40 spreads, meaning that you don't have to worry about which photos to keep, and which to leave out. Having this as your canvas, you will create a beautiful and fashionable album with ease.

A smaller size option can be perfect for the role of a trendy photo-magazine with newlywed photos. Remember to position your photos in a way that will look presentable even at a smaller size. Be sure to make full use of the printed cover's potential by designing it in the style of a magazine's front page.

Photobook Pro sized at 30x30cm/12x12" with a printed cover

Here's another product that you can easily recommend to couples who are looking for something trendy. It can contain up to 120 pages if necessary. Can you imagine what beautiful story could be told with that much room for your photos? Remember, the Photo Book should resemble a luxurious magazine; consider the layout and the number of photos, as well as other elements such as added text, headers, frames & more. Pay particular attention to the cover; everyone dreams to be on the front page of a fashion magazine ;)

Photobook Basic 20x30cm/8x12" with a glossy or matte laminate cover 

The budget-friendly version of our Photobook Pro, which is also a great fit for a fashion magazine-inspired album. Take a look at our concept below for a more glamorous rendition of the product.

Dreambook 4K in a matte laminate cover

Even though this product does not offer a portrait-shaped size option, we believe that the 30x30cm/12x12" version can also suit these requirements well. What makes it stand out from other products often associated with weddings, are its soft pages... or its paper options, to be more exact. You have three paper options to choose from: Canon Gloss, Canon Luster, and Canon Satin. They're more than mere paper; the end product from our highly-regarded Dreamlabo printer never ceases to amaze with its impeccable quality.
