A handbag is a ladies' fashion accessory that is also used to hold a number of loose items such as a wallet, keys, and tissues. It could also hold other feminine products like makeup articles or a hairbrush. Photo handbags are personalized or customized purses that carry a photo of the person or a loved one.

Photo handbags are a novel way to display special photographs that are otherwise left to gather dust in old albums. The images are made to fit the measurements required for the individual's chosen bag style. Photographs are typically set onto the fabric of the handbag through a special design process. This fabric is then handmade into a handbag as per the required specification of an individual.

The manufacturers require that all submitted photos must be from the individuals' personal collection. If any copyright photograph has to be used, then legal permission from the owner has to accompany the photographs.

Sepia tone is a kind of finish given to the images, which gives the photographs a vintage look. The designers initially turn photos to black and white and then give it a brass antique look.

There are certain parameters that have to be kept in mind while choosing photos for a photo handbag. It is advisable to choose photos where the subject is clear and where there is sufficient space in the surrounding to fit the shape of the bag. Some part of the fabric print around 8-10 mm is stitched into the bag on all four sides. Hence, it should be ensured that the edge of the photo does not have any important features. Care should be taken that the eyelet handle holes do not hamper the image as it might ruin the effect of the photo handbag.

Burberry, Gina Alexander, Louis Vuittons', and Hide signs are famous brands in ladies leather accessories that have fashionably designed photo handbags, which are exclusive but exorbitantly priced.
