I'm spending the next few weeks on a big overhaul of my website. It might look a bit untidy here and there in the meantime.
The photo album
An online gallery is beautiful, but it slowly drifts into the background. A book sits on the table and is easy to open when someone drops by. It is lovely to look through the photographs again and again, in ten years' time as well, and to show the book to friends and family.
Included with every wedding and elopement · Designed by me
from me, for you
Included
A selection from your day, with your names on the cover. There is nothing for you to do, you only choose the colour of the linen. The rest simply arrives.
So within a few weeks there is something you can actually hold, ready to show to friends and family.
If you would like more
Would you like a bigger album, with more of the day in it and a cover that suits you? That is possible. You can upgrade the standard album to a book designed completely to your taste. You will then have one album rather than two books.
this is exactly how it works later
With the larger album you decide what goes in. You put a heart on everything you want to keep in the gallery, and I build your book from that.
A more generous size and more spreads, so more of the day fits in and the photographs are allowed to be properly large.
Linen, nubuck, vegan leather, real leather or wood, in the colour you like. Which personalisation looks best on it is something I sort out for you.
A matching box with your names on it. And if your parents would like to show off your day just as proudly, I print it as a set, with two smaller copies in the same design.
♥You
put a heart on your favourites in the gallery
I
make the selection, design the whole book from cover to final page, and show it to you finished
You
say what needs changing, until it is right(one round of feedback is usually enough)
It does not get more complicated than that ;-)
I will send you the full overview with all sizes, materials, colours and prices after the wedding.
Frequently asked questions
The questions are sorted per album, because what you can choose and change is different for each. The gift I design entirely myself, the larger album we make together.
About the gift album, which is included
Only the colour of the linen. The photographs, the order and the design are all mine, that is part of the surprise. So there are no rounds of feedback on this album either: it is a gift from me, not a commission from you.
Shortly after you receive the full gallery. There is nothing for you to do, it simply arrives, wrapped in a cheesecloth bag.
About the larger album, if you upgrade
No, one. A larger album is an upgrade of the gift, not a book alongside it. If you go for it, that becomes your album, in the size, material and colour you pick yourselves. If you do not, you simply keep the small linen album.
After the wedding. As soon as you have the full gallery, I send you the overview with all sizes, materials, colours and prices. Before then there is nothing you need to think about.
Yes. You mark all your favourites in the online gallery, and I make the book from those. I add a few gems of my own that you may have overlooked but that complete the story. This applies to the larger album only; the gift album I put together myself.
As often as it takes. You see the complete design, cover and pages, and tell me what needs changing. One round is usually enough, but if it needs more to get it right, we simply do that. Only once you are happy does it go to print.
From the moment you approve the design it takes about four weeks for the book to reach you. It arrives packaged and tracked, straight to your door.
Yes. Your photographs stay with me, so even a year later I can still make you a larger album or a set of parent albums. Just send me a message.
For both albums
No. I do not charge for shipping, not even if you live outside the EU.
Yes, exactly the same. Weddings and elopements always come with the gift album and you can build on it. A proposal does not include an album, there you get the gallery.
Do my photos and the way I work speak to you? Send me a message and you will get a personal reply from me within a few days, with the pricing guide.
