wedding album

You chose the right wedding photographer, they took the perfect shots, you browsed for hours to choose the photos to make up the wedding album....then after six months the album is relegated to the bottom of the bookcase. Think about how you can enjoy your photos. Why not consider a personalised wedding album? Alternatively you could splash out on an Italian leather album to take pride of place on a coffee table or by adding some special frames to your gift list, you could feature your favourite wedding photography on the mantlepiece! Having your favourite shots arranged as a montage is a lovely reminder of that special day everytime you see it. Did you know that it’s possible to use photographs of your wedding to create a glossy coffee table book? Many photographers offer this service in addition to the traditional wedding album, and there are now specialist suppliers who can produce wedding books in a variety of formats. The phenomenon of "Venture" photography has demonstrated the importance of mounting and framing to get the best from prints, and the same applies to putting together an album, making it an art in its own right. Don’t underestimate the work involved in mounting the prints and putting together the album, which can often take longer than actually taking the photos, and always ask your photographer to include mounting your prints as part of the package.

How do you want to enjoy your photos?
