Introduction
G. F Smith Photographic have been designing and making beautiful photographic books, frames, folder s an d m o u nt s
since 1985. Made by hand, using traditional methods and only the very best materials, our products are of a quality that
will last for generations.

for your project or customer, call us, speak to a person with real knowledge, and we will do ever ything we can to help.

G. F Smith Photographic albums are all bound by hand using our stunning Layflat system, which allows you to print across any
spread within the book with absolutely no disruption.
You can choose from our Standard Layflat album, create your perfect matted album using our Layflat Overlay solution or
select our starter Layflat Photobook.
Our standard albums come in a choice of eight cover styles, 59 cover materials, ten sizes, four photographic papers and one fine art with six different embellishments. The depth of choice,
quality of materials used and the excellence of the making means our albums are as beautiful and as unique as you could dream.
However, if you are after something even more bespoke, just get in touch, and we will help bring your vision to life.
Our albums are created using our PPS software (available for Mac and PC), or you can use software of your choice.

Based on our signature Layflat binding system, the Standard Layflat album comes in a choice of eight cover styles, 59 cover materials,
ten sizes, four different photographic and one fine art paper and six different embellishments. With all of these options, you have the opportunity to create something wonderfully
unique for each customer.

Layflat Overlay
The Layflat Overlay album has the same print, paper and binding quality as our standard Layflat album, but with the
images behind page overlays in either Black or White. You can mix overlays with plain printed pages all within the same book.
See our PPS software for options.

Layflat Photobook
This album has the same print and binding quality as the Standard Layflat. However, a lighter weight paper
and restrictions on size and page count — A4 portrait and landscape or 8” x 8” and only 10/ 20 pages — means that
we can make this the most affordable product in the range. The printed cover is available in matt and gloss.

Because all of our albums are made by hand, creating something beyond our standard range is something we can do with relative ease.
So, if you can’t find what you are looking for or simply want to discuss other options — be that a different material, a size larger than 16” x 16” or even a custom housing for a CD of images in the
back — just get in touch and let us help you create your vision. Phone 01482 588 037 Email [email protected]

This is a contemporar y wooden frame that is available in a variety of sizes and three colours. It appears to float due to the nature of the fixings at the back.
For this frame, the image is printed on photographic paper, with a choice of lustre or kanvas, laminated and is then mounted to the MDF. It can either be a single image or a collection
mounted to the back. The wood is available in White, Oak or Black, can be full face or Black or White edges.
We have an abundance of mouldings available in standard and bespoke sizes with or without single or double mounts.
Acr ylic & AluminiumContemporar y

For the Acrylic frame, the image is printed and then bonded to the reverse of a 5mm thick acrylic sheet giving it greater luminance, depth and detail. For the Aluminium frame, the image is printed directly onto the sheet. It is available in both matt and gloss finishes – either of which gives stunning clarity to images.
Both frames have an invisible back hanging system which creates a ‘floating’ effect on the wall.
