A beautiful keeper of stories.
Why we started
Our photos lived on phones and in group chats, and the good ones got lost under the rest. Kora Belle started as a way to pull the best ones out and put them in a book that sits on the table, gets picked up and gets passed round.
The name comes from the kora, the harp-lute played by West Africa's griots, the storytellers who keep a community's memory alive. Kora Belle means a beautiful keeper of stories. Every book we print is made to do the same job.
What we won't compromise on
Faces printed true
Every book is colour-tuned so skin tones print warm and true, never grey or ashy.
Made close to you
Printed in the UK for UK orders and in the US for US orders, so your book has less distance to travel.
Your photos, not ours
Every page is yours. We never use a customer's photos without asking first.
Plain prices
Prices and delivery are on the product page before you start, and designing costs nothing.
