Over the years, especially more recently, I've noticed a trend which I truly find sad. So few people order products any longer such as wall art, printed photographs, or custom made beautifully designed albums.
Did you know that I offer such products? A couple of my more recent clients have ordered display pieces from their bridal sessions, to showcase at their wedding receptions. And last fall, for the first time in a very long time, I designed a gorgeous leather wedding album for one of my 2021 couples.
In a perfect world, I sure wish all of my wedding and portrait clients would order products or albums. It's a dying art, unfortunately. So many just want to post a few on social media and that's it. Don't leave your images just sitting on your thumb drive. An album, wall art, and printed photographs can become family heirlooms. Trust me on this!
As I write this, I want to say that this comes so close to home for me. I lost my dad just over two years ago. He was a retired photojournalist and a travel writer, but also the family's archivist, which I have now become. There are so many family prints, slides, negatives, and digital files I had not seen prior and they have brought me so much joy. I am working on scanning some, archiving to the Cloud, so I can share with my sisters and nieces. And I'm also deciding which to have framed. I am planning to do a wall of art and photography in the stairwell at my home. This is going to be a fun project!
Also, when my significant other Terry and I have been on a trip or have special things happening in our lives, I make it a point to print any of those photos I take or create lay flat albums for us to enjoy and relive our vacations and celebrations. Please consider doing the same for your wedding, event, or session!
The albums I offer are hand made and they are gorgeous! The pages are flat and I design them for my clients. Offered in linen, standard leather, and distressed leather in a variety of colors. You may add a image to the cover and/or two lines for imprinting in a variety of fonts to choose from. More products are available to accompany your album including a wooden box or cloth dust cover. Please reach out for more info!
For printing I work with a custom photo lab, which makes a total difference. I offer printing on wood, metal, acrylic, and more. Canvas gallery wraps in all sizes are always popular! And of course I offer standard printing on lustre paper from wallets to large formats.
Below is a sample of the album I designed for my couple last fall and then for a wedding I photographed in March of this year, here is a sample from that client's bridal of her canvas display piece.
