I am a huge believer in printed wedding albums. For me it is the best way to record and relive the wedding day. There’s something special about opening up an album, turning through the pages and being reminded of the moments and feelings of the day. Having photographs on a phone is great, but a wedding album is future proof – you may not be able to open your bebo/myspace/CD backup/phone you dropped/geocities but you can always open a wedding album! 😉
I offer two different types of wedding album, Velvet and Leather. Both are storybook type albums, where the photographs are printed directly onto the page before binding the book. The photographic paper is made especially for professional printing and is printed using a colour preservation technique. Each page lies flat, with an almost unnoticeable crease in the centre.
A physical album is a tactile experience – something to be held and felt – but I will do my best to describe them!
Velvet Album
The Velvet Album is a square wedding album. It’s printed using a very high quality paper made especially for professional printing. It opens flat with an almost invisible crease so that photographs can be printed beautifully across the pages.
The premium velvet cover is wonderfully tactile and there are over 20 colours to choose from. The soft cover is laser engraved which makes it fully customisable. If you had a specific wedding font or logo then you can use this on your album. It’s also great for people with fadas in their names! It’s a modern option, and comes in a matching velvet box.
There are two sizes to choose from – a regular 10″x10″ or a large 12″x12″. You can also opt to include mini 8″x8″ duplicates of the main album.
Velvet Colour Options
Leather Album
The Leather Album is also a square album, printed with the same professional paper and colour preserving method as the Velvet Album. It is also printed across both pages before being creased in the centre to allow photographs to spread across the entire album.
The cover is genuine Tuscany leather with its own unique tone and natural pattern. Chosen for it’s quality and durability, it’s a classic cover in a choice of 7 colours, and the front is embossed with your names. With a wax finish to protect the leather, it comes in a matching leather box.
