Core features
empikfoto centers on standard prints, framed prints, wall pictures and greeting cards made from customer photographs. Photo books span standard editions, travel themes and mini Instabook formats, while Leporelo folds group images into unfolding keepsakes. Albums, boxes and frames organize printed pictures, and keychains, magnets and stickers turn motifs into small objects. Personalized textiles complete the catalog with shirts, cotton bags, drawstring backpacks and towels in varied graphic layouts.
Printed textiles and objects
Photos can also be printed on soft textiles, including cotton cushions and cosy blankets with a picture across the surface. Small objects such as keychains, magnets and stickers turn a favourite image into something that can travel in a pocket or sit on a fridge. Each item keeps the same focus on personal pictures, so the range feels like a set of linked keepsakes that a household can build over time, one piece at a time.
Gifts for family and friends
Families use the range to keep trips, milestones and everyday moments together in one place. A calendar, a travel photo book or a framed print can sit in a living room, while smaller items suit a friend or colleague. The brand fits people who like to give personal presents rather than generic ones, because every item starts from a picture the giver already loves and knows well. Each keepsake is made from pictures the buyer already owns, so nothing needs to be drawn or written from scratch.

What photo textiles does the brand offer?+

Can a photo book be made in a small size?+
Yes, a mini photobook is part of the range, offering a compact format for keeping favourite pictures close at hand. It works well as a pocket keepsake or a small gift. Larger standard photobooks sit alongside it for fuller albums. Both formats use the buyer's own photographs.
What makes a Leporelo fold different from a book?+
A Leporelo fold opens out into one long strip of photographs rather than turning one leaf after another. The format suits panoramic trips and a sequence of images that flows from left to right and keeps a travel story in one line. Each panel carries a stretch of the story. Buyers can choose their own pictures to build the strip.
Which everyday objects can carry a personal photo?+
Magnets, keychains and stickers can carry a personal photo, turning a favourite image into a small everyday object. Cushions, blankets and bags offer soft options for a home or a bedroom. Frames and calendars bring pictures onto a wall or a desk. Together these items let one set of photos appear in many places.
