Photo Book

The difference between a photo block book and a regular scrapbook is that a photo block book uses photos as the main visual element, is created on the computer and is ordered online. These come out looking like a professionally bound book with colorful illustrations, rather than a handmade scrapbook with paper embellishments. A photo block book also is commonly referred to as a photobook and is a beautiful way to preserve memories.
