photo books

I worked on various iterations of the customizable photo book product for Snapfish, gradually developing more refined features. I created custom fabric prints for covers, custom cover layouts for hardbound printed covers, photo and text templates for interior pages, and background themes for the interior pages. Product form factors included square and landscape in various sizes. Users were able to customize with their digital photos and text, then order a printed copy.
