Demo & Sample Products
What is a Sample product?
Sample products are products which are designed by you with your own images. A sample product can be a Photo Album, Complete Set, or any other printed product from our range. Sample products are products designated to be present in your studio and shown to potential clients. They are constructed no different than our non-sample products and designed by you in our free and easy-to-use Online Designer, Templates, or our partners' software (Fundy, Smart Albums, AlbumStomp, Dgflick). You sell what you show. So get to designing your samples that will be displayed in your studio for future clients to admire. More on our samples in the Sample Policy.
What is a Demo Product?
Demo products are products which are ready-made and designed with our stock images. These products were created with you in mind and are meant as a selling tool to help you improve your business. Ordering a product from the Demo Product range allows you to have products such as the Demo Cover Pack or the Demo Paper Bundle on hand to show clients the possibilities of personalisation options. These Demos were designed in such a way to allow you to bring all of them with you to IPS meetings, so they are both handy and useful.

PHOTO ALBUMS
Fuji Silk – (pages mounted on rigid boards) standard in albums. Fuji Silk paper is a half-matte, paper with a texture resembling that of a fine honeycomb. This paper is soft to the touch, retains vibrant colours and details while exuding an extremely crisp, elegant finish. Mix with Fuji Pearl (Metallic) spreads in the same album.
Fuji Pearl (Metallic) – (pages mounted on rigid boards) characterised for its popping details and glossy, pearl-like finish. It’s generally accepted that Fuji Pearl (Metallic) offers the widest tonal range which allows producing images with rich textured quality. Pearl paper enhances the freshness of the image and assures a clearer more distinct outcome. Mix with Fuji Silk spreads in the same album.
Canon Deep Matte – (pages mounted on rigid boards) features a smooth, glossless, almost velvet to the feel texture. This fine-art paper accentuates vivid shades, contrasting colours, and skin tones. The high-quality images produced on the state-of the-art Dreamlabo 5000 printer, give off a professional, artistic feel.
Mohawk Eggshell – (pages mounted on rigid boards) a soft feel and vintage vibe, as well as muted light but less than the above mentioned Deep Matte option. Mohawk Eggshell paper combines the tactile feel of uncoated paper with the ink density and sharp detail of coated photo paper.
DREAMBOOK 4K
Canon Gloss - (275 gsm) has a heavy, glossy finish. In general, glossy and/or metallic finishes are renowned for their range, sharpness, vividness, and durability. They will be highly colourful and most purely present the colours and shades of the image. Ideal for the bold, dramatic shoots where the aim is to achieve an authentic, unapologetic “wow!”
Canon Luster - (275 gsm) that middle ground between glossy and satin. It has incredible definition, natural skin tones, etc, but has less of a gloss finish than the glossy option; yet, does still retain some shine which enhances details and colours on the photo. Lower gloss also means fewer problems associated with glare and fingerprints.
Canon Satin – (170 gsm) a near-flat; extremely low-gloss finish with minimal glare. The paper is smooth and soft to the touch as well as provides an elegant finish and effect to any image. A slight texture in the paper, more fine than that of the Luster. The satin finish is ideal for images that will be handled often and are exposed to varied viewing environments.
PHOTO BOOK PRO
Felix Schoeller Luster – (190 gsm) a finish that sits between glossy and matte. The resulting images will retain some shine allowing for details and colours to be enhanced. A lustre paper and finish maintain incredible definition and natural skin tones. Due to its less glossy nature, this paper will have little to no problems with fingerprints and glare.
Mohawk Eggshell – (148 gsm and 216 gsm) the Eggshell -is a true, vintage style, matte. The paper maintains a soft, ‘texture’ feel and muted tone; absorbing rather than reflecting light. Mohawk 148 gsm paper is perfect for smaller formats and ideal for full-page images. The 216 gsm paper is recommended for larger book formats and is additionally creased towards the spine to ease paging through.
Arctic Matte - (170 gsm), this wood-free paper has a high-tech, cool white base guaranteeing excellent printability. Thanks to this white base colour and opacity it provides stunning results, particularly with contrast - most notably black and whites. It also boasts an enhanced, smooth presentation of your images without glaring issues. The finish results in an artistic, almost vintage, film-like appearance that creates a mood for any style of photography.
