Most layouts show two to four photos on a spread, so a book with 24 pages (12 spreads) holds 25 to 50 pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A weekend or a day out<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choose a softcover or a 20 to 30 page hardcover. Fifteen to thirty pictures with a title page and a closing photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A holiday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Forty to sixty pages: a spread for each place, a few full-page favourites and a page for tickets and maps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A whole year<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sixty to eighty pages in a large square. Four seasonal chapters of ten to fifteen spreads each is an easy structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Too many photos?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pick one picture per moment, not one per minute.
