Wedding Albums
The most important photos deserve to be printed. There’s a permanence, something really significant about holding a physical photo (in any form!) in your hands, that you just can’t replicate on a screen. Pulling out your wedding album, re-living the day, remembering your guests… there’s a magic in that. I’ve tested lots of suppliers and have chosen two album makers who’s craftsmanship will stand the test of time, so your wedding photos can be appreciated for years to come.

Wedding Album FAQs
How many photos can I have in my album?
30 pages can comfortably fit around 100 photos. Less is definitely more with good album design as the aim is to showcase your favourite images. The best thing to do is to choose your favourite photos from each part of the day, if that’s more than 100 it’s no problem. At the design stage you can decide if you’d like to add more pages.

How do I choose the photos for my album?
Using your online gallery, you can label the photos you’d like to include in your album. I’ll then use these photos to create the layout design for you. Once I’ve completed the first draft I’ll send it to you to review and request any changes you’d like.

What’s the difference between a Fine Art Album and a Coffee Table Book?
The main difference is the paper and the cover personalisation options. The Fine Art Album is a handmade product, using thick, slightly textured fine art paper, with a range of fabric covers and text personalisation options – because of this it feels like a substantial, quality heirloom album. The Coffee Table Book uses smooth matte photographic paper, with a hardback printed cover. Due to the printing process there’s a small barcode on the back of the cover, which enables you to order more copies in future. If you have the budget I’d always recommend getting a Fine Art Album, however the Coffee Table Book is a great alternative and if looked after will also last for generations.

How long will it take to get my album?
Once you’re happy with your design and have chosen your cover I’ll order your album. For Fine Art Albums the turn around time is typically 25 working days, and for Coffee Table Books it’s 14 working days.
