Queensberry wedding album | Bradley & Jenni

A simple classic look to suit the style of their wedding was the perfect choice for Bradley and Jenni’s wedding album.

First of all, the cover. I die. It’s the ‘rose gold’ silk which has a gentle two-tone effect that ‘moves’ beautifully in the light. It’s the first time I’ve seen this colour made up on an album and I have to say it’s stunning. It gives colour but is somehow quite neutral. One of those that you need to hold in your hand though; a photo doesn’t do it justice. Not even one of mine ;)

The quality of Queensberry’s book-binding is second to none. And it’s all crafted by hand.

Bradley and Jenni chose to have a ‘pagemount’ matted album, which uses two layers of mount to create a reliefed border around each photo. The prints are slightly smaller than the opening in the top layer which reveals the base page underneath. As always with Queensberry there’s a choice (!) and you can choose the colour of each layer. Bradley and Jenni chose my signature style of ivory on ivory which gives texture and that extra bit of pizazz but in a very clean, elegant way.

The pages are super thick and ooze quality…

When designing Bradley and Jenni’s album I had something very structured in mind and the end result is deceptively simple. There are what I call ‘hero’ images in every wedding. It might be the photo of you walking down the aisle as husband and wife. Or the romantic photo taken at dusk. These are the photographs that will typically end up the largest in your album. My challenge here was that there were so many big moments in Bradley and Jenni’s wedding that it would be impossible to make all of their hero images big. But I wanted each photograph to speak for itself and be given the time it deserves when you look through the album. So I used lots of pages and lots of white space. And as a general rule there are no more than three photos per page. Somehow I think you spend more time looking at fewer images on a page, than you do when there are more.
