Sample Policy
Discover how sample photography products work at nPhoto - including how to order them, how discounts apply, and what rules you need to follow.
Sample products allow you to order high-quality albums, prints, and other professional photography products at a reduced price from our trusted professional print lab. This lets you showcase your work, test materials, and present your offer to clients in the most professional way.
Each sample is fully customizable and created using your own images, making it an essential tool for photographers who want to present their work through professional photography printing and build stronger client trust.
What Are sample products?
Sample products are full-quality items designed for photographers who want to present their work in print. They are part of our photography lab offering and include a wide range of photography products and photographer products such as albums, books, and wall decor.
You can use them to create sample albums for photographers, including wedding album samples for photographers, portrait books, and portfolio presentations.
These products are produced in our album printing lab using high-quality materials and precise album printing services, ensuring the highest standard of professional output. Learn more about how sample products work in our guide.
What are the rules for ordering sample products at nPhoto?
How are sample products labeled?
We ensure that all nPhoto sample products feature very subtle and discreet labeling that does not interfere with the presentation of your work.
Sample products are identical in quality to standard products - the only difference is a small marking indicating they are for display purposes and not for resale.
Depending on the product, labels may include:
A small “Studio Sample – not for resale” marking
A discreet watermark (e.g. on the last page of albums or prints)
Subtle placement that does not distract from your images
For example, albums may include a marking inside the back cover or a watermark on the final page, while wall decor features a minimal front label placed in a non-intrusive area.
