We wanted to offer our clients a few more albums and design a mini book to give away to prospective clients, so here you go! The albums are our lower end coffee table book and the small book is a just a little something to show off our work to prospective clients.

Ever since we heard of this idea, we just thought it was so cute!  I remember our guest book from our wedding, but now, it is no where to be found.  Maybe it is in the attic stuffed into a box, but it definitely is not something to keep out, even though I think it may have had some ruffles on it!  Funny how things have changed!  If we would have thought to make an album out of engagement pictures to form a guest book, where our guests could write a note of encouragement or just sign their name, it definitely would have been something to keep forever.

What a great idea!!

Here are some facts on this book quality for you…

This is a custom album, therefore, pricing is determined by how many pages, size, and finish.

Covers

Book covers are made with masonite to give the books a smooth, substantial feel. Eight cover material options are available including black, chocolate brown and tan fabric; black, dark brown and dark red leather; and a custom printed photo cover in lustre or metallic. Photo covers are made with a photographic print that is laminated and adhered to the masonite cover. The photo cover allows for complete customization on the front, spine, and back of the book using your own images and designs. Additionally, enhance the cover of your book with a photographic dust jacket or cover foil stamping. A dust jacket is a photographic print laminated and creased to wrap around the cover of the book. It protects the cover and provides another option to personalize your book by using images, text and graphics. Cover foil stamping allows you to place three lines of text on the front cover in one of three places: the center of the book, the lower right corner, or the bottom center. Foil stamping is only available on leather covers.

Papers

Press printed books are printed with the same HP Indigo printing technology with liquid inks. Book pages are printed on 110# hinged paper in semi-gloss or pearl. The hinged paper allows open pages to lay flat a as well as provides a thicker, more upscale paper option.  Book pages are stitched together to create the book block that is adhered to the cover using black cardstock end sheets.

This book had a metallic photo cover that looks incredible!!  As you can see, the hinged paper allows the book to lay flat.

This book is so perfect for bridal portraits, or a book for your child’s portraits!  We are updating our samples with current work that we have recently done, and we filled this one with a variety of bridals that we have done recently.  The linen cover makes this book slightly more casual, but you can still feel the quality of how it is made. Very nice!!
