Nothing quite compares to being able to hold your images & memories in your hands. I used to flip through my parents’ and grandparents’ wedding albums as a kid all the time and still do- it’s one of the first things that inspired me to photograph weddings.
As a huge collector of various photo books & having a background in graphic design, I worked to create this final product that feels like a traditional wedding album meets creatively designed art book. Something that can live on your coffee table for you to look through often, but that will also live on for future generations. We’ll work together to include your favorite images and make sure the design of the book feels true to you two & bottles up the celebration you had.
*If you prefer more of a DIY route, you’re able to self design a wedding album directly through your online pic-time gallery - just go to the “shop” and you’ll find a lay flat album option. This is still a great quality, archival option if you don’t want something as custom.*

Custom Fine Art Books:
Printed with archival ink on matte fine art paper makes it museum quality & ensures it will stand the test of time. The
spreads lay flat so that your photos are able to seamlessly spread from cover to cover.
COVER:
See below for cover fabric & debossing options. Debossing is a form of “stamping” into the cover material. You can use a custom design from your wedding or choose 1-2 lines of text (names, date, etc.)
HERE is some inspo of what your book could look like.

PAPER:
All books are made with fine art matte paper which insures the archival inks are rich & brilliant. Each spread's paper thickness can either be thin (20mil / .5mm), so the pages slightly flex, or a thick spread (50mil / 1.3mm), for sturdier pages.
Thick paper is included in the pricing, but please let me know if you’d like the thinner option.

Design Proccess
1. Select Your Album Size (10x10, 9x12, 4x5)
Let me know what album size(s) you want & any other initial information you’d like me to know off the bat & I’ll send you a link to start selecting your images as well as an invoice for the album.
2. Select Your Photos
I'll send a link where you’ll be able to select up to 150 of your favorite photos. Once this is complete, I’ll begin designing!
3. Designing Your Album
I’ll take time to custom design your album. This process can usually take a few weeks depending on the time of year. I’ll send a first draft for your review. We'll revise your album until it’s perfect. The first 3 rounds of revisions are complimentary. Afterwards, there is a fee for additional revisions.
4. Materials/cover
Once the interior spreads are designed, we’ll work together to design the cover, your cover style, and any additional customizations you’d like. You can see all of the swatch options below!
5. Printing & Binding
Once you’ve signed off on the final draft, I’ll send your album off to be printed and bound, and will have your album delivered directly to me to make sure everything looks okay. This can take up to 4 weeks - if you want it sooner a rush fee is available.
6. Perfection Check
I’ll check over every detail of your album to ensure it’s absolutely perfect & ship it your way or hand it off in person if you’re local to NYC :)
