Professional Photo Album Design Services by Artifact Uprising
Design Services is a true time-saver for album creation, using Artifact Uprising’s expert design and intentional storytelling to create heirloom photo products that will be enjoyed for generations to come. You'll work one-on-one with an account manager and a designer as they create an album that celebrates your special moments.
The Design Process and Timeline
The Design Service Team is a separate team from our Customer Experience team. Once we receive payment and photos, your designer will reach out via email within 5 business days, with the first draft of your project for review. You'll use a proofing tool to communicate with your designer, and discuss any changes needed.
Regarding revisions and timing, 2 revisions are included in the design fee, and any additional revisions are $50 each. We ask that your book is finalized within 21 days of receiving your first draft. Depending on the frequency of feedback and number of revisions, the process can take as little as 5 days for design, plus a minimum of 10 business days for production and shipping.
Album Customization and Capacity
Explore sizes, fabric colors, and foil options for each of our Layflat Photo Albums and Guest Books: Signature Layflat Album, Wedding Layflat Album, Wedding Guest Book, Layflat Album, or Elopement Layflat.
While this is based on the final page count, our Layflat, Wedding Layflat, and Signature Layflat Photo Albums with 90 pages (45 spreads) can usually showcase up to 160 images. For Guest Book designs, we recommend fewer photos to allow extra space for handwritten notes day of. We do our best to include as many details from your day as possible, although there is no guarantee that every photo submitted will be used in the final design of your album.
Photo Curation Service Tiers
The curation of the first 200 images is included with your design fee purchase. For projects requiring additional curation of anything above 200 total images, we offer the following tiers:
| Service Level | Image Quantity | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 | Up to 500 images | $79 |
| Tier 2 | 501-1,000 images | $99 |
| Tier 3 | 1,001-1,500 images | $129 |
| Tier 4 | 1,501-2,500 images | $149 |
| Tier 5 | Over 2,500 images | $199 |
Technical File Specifications
To ensure the highest quality for your project, please follow these recommendations:
- Images must be in the sRGB color space.
- Images will print best when sized to 300 DPI.
- Images must be less than 25MB although we recommend having them be between 4-7MB for easy upload.
Fees, Promotions, and Credits
Design fees are non-refundable. Site-wide sales and promotions may not be applied to the design service fee or shipping costs but can be applied to the printing cost of your album. We are unable to combine multiple promotions, and discounts do not apply to purchases of Wedding Album Collections. However, you can use your credits towards the cost of the album and pay the difference. For more than 1 album (each uniquely designed), we offer the design service at $50 per additional album.
