I know it’s been a while! I’ve had a bit of a nightmare week what with getting ill and all sorts, but I’m finally getting back on track. Hopefully I can show you something from last Saturday’s amazing Andaz/Gherkin wedding soon as well.
In the meanwhile, I thought I’d finally share some pictures of the new Wedding Book. In the past few years I have offered a few different types of albums, primarily because I hadn’t found one that ticked absolutely all the boxes. I have offered coffee table books as I really think the album should tell the whole story of the wedding day, not just selected highlights, and with coffee table books that is possible as it is more cost effective to get more pages in. But the quality of coffee table books is not quite up to what I’d ideally envisage for a wedding album, they always tend to feel a bit less substantial. So that’s why I have also been offering the option of a flush mounted album, which really is a beautiful album to behold, but in order to include as many pages as I feel there ought to be, drives the price of the album out of reach for most – besides most flush mounts can’t even accommodate the amount of pages I want to give my clients.
I am so happy to say that I have finally found the one, and it really is a match made in wedding album heaven. I shall just call it The Wedding Book. The book feels really solid and substantial in your hands, the pages are stiff and lay completely flat and have a beautiful matt finish, which I think really compliments my photography. Each book is designed individually for you and tells the whole story of your wedding day. This means that each book comes up a slightly different – but always quite a substantial – length, while the price still stays the same.
Since I’m a big believer in ‘simple is better’, I am going to offer this new type of Wedding Book as the only option for 2011 and onwards – I really feel that strongly that it is the 100% perfect way to display my photographs and to tell the story of your wedding day in the most beautiful way. Those clients who have booked me with my 2010 prices will of course be able to order the older types of albums as well.
I have now switched over to the new 2011 prices, but for those still in consultation stages, who have received the old price list, I will hold the 2010 prices for you if you book by the end of February.
Looks amazing! It's so hard to find that one perfect album vendor. I think we've almost got it as well :)
Just wondering is there a substrate between the pages or is it just the 2 pages glued together? they do look quite stiff and there's a lot of them so I can't really tell… thanks!
As someone who sometimes makes these sort of books for friends, and who's always been a little underwhelmed by the quality, I'd love to know which company you use for this? :)
I'd love to know which company makes this books too.

@Christina: No they are not glued to a base page. They use really lovely archival paper and inks and the folding channel is very clean, looks amazing with a full spread picture, you can't see anything distracting in the centre fold at all.

Thank you! :)
Awesome Wedding Albums. Would be interested to see who make these albums. We are based in Sydney and have outsourced to companies on Hong Kong
Wow, those are some high quality stuff there!
Freaking love it.
Album looks great!
Hi Marianne, this album book looks gorgeous, your photos make that though, absolutely stunning pictures.
Where did you get the album printed?
