From the first step of ordering a box to receiving my art back, it was excellent service all the way. Customer support is amazing. After I submitted my box, I found another stash of art that I wanted included so I contacted customer support. The email responses were personal. They said "no problem", walked me through all the steps. Everything was added to my gallery and the produced books are amazing. It truly makes a difference to have your artwork photographed as opposed to scanned. Couldn't be happier with everything about this process and their products.

Photographing versus scanning really does bring out the detail, so we're glad that difference stood out to you. And glad that we could include that extra stash of art! Thank you for such a generous review.
I will use Artkive every year due to their customer service!
I will use Artkive every year due to their wonderful customer service! This is the 2nd year using them and this year unfortunately our book came a little bit damaged from the shipping. They were so quick to send us not only a new book but help us out with a little off next year's book as well! I love having the art to put on display on our coffee table and I can't wait for our little one to be able to see what she made in school when she's older!

Shipping mishaps are never fun, but it's great to hear our team made it right quickly. Having your little one's artwork on display now, with a whole future of her flipping through it herself, is exactly why we do this. Thanks for making Artkive a yearly tradition!
I purchased the card book package for my wedding cards and had a great experience. I sent them off to be photographed, received a proof of the book, and then received the printed book a few weeks later. The entire process was smooth and now I have my wedding cards in a beautiful book!

So glad the process went smoothly for you. Wedding cards hold so much sentiment, and it's wonderful to know yours now have a home you'll actually flip through for years to come. Congratulations again!
Artkive was amazing to work with. The work they do made my son’s artwork come to life even more! I will be a returning customer for my son and daughters future artwork!

So glad we did your son's artwork justice. Looking forward to helping you preserve both kids' creativity for years to come!

What a joy to read! Knowing we helped give your child's artwork a lasting home means the world to us. Thank you for the recommendation and for trusting us with those memories.
I loved the idea but was surprised how costly it would be. I should have done my research.

We're glad the concept resonated with you, and we hear you on the cost. Each piece is handled with real care and craftsmanship, which factors into pricing. Happy to answer any questions before your next order.
This has become an annual end of school year tradition! My daughter loves art and putting it all in a book makes it special and something she flips thru and enjoys just as much as me. I love not having the paper clutter or worrying about damaging the paper art. I can’t wait to see each book each year ahead!
Reply from Artkive2026-07-08
What a beautiful annual tradition. Your daughter's art deserves exactly this kind of home, safe from damage, and easy for both of you to enjoy together. We look forward to being part of many more end of school years to come!
Artkive is amazing at what they do! They message as they go through the steps preparing your order. I had a question and needed my cover photo resized and got a response within hours and my photo had already been fixed. The entire experience was great, attention to detail is amazing. I already have another one in the works with them.

Thank you for the detailed feedback! Quick turnarounds and clear communication matter to us, so it's great to hear that we got your cover fixed fast. Can't wait to work on your next project with you.
Today, when everything lives on devices and can vanish with one careless click, having an Artkive art book feels almost revolutionary. It transforms scattered drawings and digital snapshots into a physical archive of creativity. You can run your fingers across the pages, feel the thickness of the paper, and know that these memories won’t disappear into a corrupted file or a lost folder. It’s a lasting testament to the moments that matter.

The way you described it gave us chills. A physical archive that won't vanish with a corrupted file is exactly what we set out to create. Thank you for putting it so beautifully.
I love my book from Cardkive. The quality and clarity of the pages. Communication between the different stages was perfect.
It is a bit pricy but worth the money for special occasions.
Reply from Artkive2026-06-25
We're so glad the quality and communication hit the mark. You're right that it's an investment, and we think preserving those special memories is absolutely worth it. Thank you so much!
I love my finished books! The process from start to finish was easier than expected. I love that treasured cards collected over many years are now beautifully bound in quality books. This is much easier than reviewing individual cards. Additionally, it is the perfect way to keep cherished momentos and also declutter.

So glad the process surprised you in the best way! Knowing that years of cherished cards are now easy to revisit makes every step worthwhile. Thank you for sharing your experience!
