Should I get a wedding album? 

The simple answer to that is yes. The purpose of photos is to be printed and not to live behind a screen that gets flicked through every now and again. There’s something about printing photos that brings them to life, it’s a way to view them, to interact with them and to feel an emotional connection with them. Ink on paper is how they were always intended to be seen. 

An album creates an heirloom showcasing the love of two people. It’s something tangible that will be passed down the generations to your children and even your grandchildren. It is an investment that has the power to transport you back to a moment and all the emotions and joy you felt on your wedding day.

Can I put an album on my wedding gift list?

Absolutely! In fact I would encourage you to put an album as an option on your wedding gift list. It’s a nice way for your guests to feel like the are contributing towards something they know you will keep and treasure forever. There are a couple of different ways we can do this depending on what supplier you use for your gift list so if you are considering doing this - please drop me a message. We do also provide gift vouchers for your guests to purchase directly from us whether someone wants to purchase the whole album or just contribute. 

​

Stuck for present ideas for your parents? 

Our parents come from a generation where prints and albums were a huge part of their life growing up. That excitement of waiting to have a film developed and arrive in the post. Albums are the perfect way to thank your parents for everything they have done & will be something that will make them beam with joy when they have friends that they can show it off to. We offer smaller duplicate albums which are 8x8 inch in size come gift-wrapped. Generally couples opt to present thank you presents to their parents during the speeches so if this was something you had in mind then we could send you a gift voucher which you can present to them on the day. 

​

Do I need to pre-order an album before my wedding? 

No not at all, it’s completely up to you once you order one. Most couples tend to pre-order their albums just so it’s one less thing to think about after the wedding and it arrives just in time to help take away the post-wedding blues (yep they are a real thing!) whereas other couples choose to wait until their first wedding anniversary (which is handily paper!) to treat themselves to an album. The only thing I will mention is that our turnaround time for albums will be based on our workload, if you pre-order an album then it’s something we take into account when planning our schedules so our turnaround time will naturally be quicker.

So why shouldn't I take the £30 special offer for a glossy photobook? 

When Dave & I got married, I honestly didn’t see the value in ordering a bespoke album and we ordered a cheaper album & were super disappointed by the colours and quality. The colours weren’t accurate & the photos lost definition and sharpness. No matter how much you spent on your wedding photography, placing the photos in a cheap album is never going to do your wedding justice.

​

We definitely learnt the hard way but I am so glad we did as it made me know exactly what to look for when meeting album suppliers when we started our business. Hours and hours have been spent researching and meeting different suppliers to find a product that we are excited by, that offers the best quality for our couples. We are passionate about sourcing locally and supporting small businesses.

What's the difference between a Bespoke Album & Memory Book? 

Quite a lot actually! Our Bespoke albums are completely customisable to exactly to your taste. They are lovingly hand-made with the best quality materials, papers and inks and designed as an heirloom to last a lifetime. It is a luxury album available in leather, linen or faux-leather in a range of colours (other materials available upon request). It will arrive beautifully gift-wrapped and presented in a box for safekeeping. The album is available in a range of sizes and mini-duplicates are also available to give as gifts to loved ones. Our Memory Books, on the other hand, are a simple and cost-effective product designed for engagements, family and newborn sessions for those that want something with less customisation that is simple yet beautiful to remember those precious moments.  The Memory Book comes in one cover material option made of Flores fabric (a similar feel to velvet), one size (8x8") and has limited embossing options for the front cover.
