10 Best Websites and Shops to Order a Photobook in Singapore

Looking for a personalised gift or do you just want to get your pictures off your devices and onto hard copy so the family can enjoy them? Ordering a customised photobook in Singapore is just the thing!

The best kinds of gifts are ones that are personalised. Photobooks are easy to design, and make a great gift to give family and relatives – especially grandparents – that you haven’t been able to visit since the pandemic began. Unlike old photos, your photobook design is stored digitally, which means it can be easily replaced if it suffers any kind of damage or gets lost. Designing a photobook is a complete breeze, just select your photos, add some text to each page if you like, and order as many copies as you want. We’ve done the hard work by shortlisting all the places where you can order photobooks in Singapore (all prices are in SGD unless otherwise stated), plus check out our promo codes for great discounts (like 75% off)!

Scroll through our list for the 10 best places to order your very own custom photobook in Singapore!

Blurb

We know people who use Blurb for gifting photobooks regularly. From giant baby books to photobooks that commemorate each child’s school year. There are so many different photobook styles to choose from (all professional-quality, even cookbooks if you want to honor some special family recipes), and we love that all designs stay in one place so can be easily re-printed (or send multiple copies to various relatives in different places). Printing and binding takes just 4-5 days.
Price: Softcovers from US$14.99, hardcovers from US$29.99. Blurb has a handy shipping calculator that estimates price and arrival date based on your order.

Brilliant Prints

Another photo printing company based in Singapore, Brilliant Prints handcrafts each and every fine art-quality photobook in Singapore, providing full service by designing the layout of your album, printing and assembling the photobook. Each photobook is created start to finish by a single individual and printed on archival art papers imported from the United States. Turnaround time is seven days, and they offer a 100% money-back guarantee if you’re not happy with the final product. And while we’ve never used Brilliant Prints for a photobook, we have used their fab canvas printing services (on the recommendation of one of our fave family photographers), and they did an outstanding job.
