Company Profile

Picaboo is a premier provider of photo books and cards. With Picaboo, anyone with digital photos can create beautiful photo books and cards in seconds. Unlike photofinishing websites, Picaboo does not force you spend hours uploading photos before you create a book or card. Rather, with Picaboo installed, you can make a complete, ready-to-order book or card in seconds. The technology behind Picaboo is comprised of an elegant client-side application and back-end network that makes creating, sharing, buying and updating photo books and cards simple. 

With billions of digital photos trapped on computer hard drives around the world, we believe that photo books and photo cards are the next-generation of photofinishing. Our goal is to deliver the most innovative, easy, and fun way to create, share and buy high quality photo books and cards.
