Wedding albums are a gift to pass from generation to generation. A permanent pathway to the past.
Your photos are a collection of images created to tell the story of your wedding. So you’ll get the most enjoyment from them when you actually present them as a story.
Imagine the warm glow of nostalgia as you snuggle up together on the sofa - blankets on your laps and a beautiful book in your hands - and your memories flood back as you immerse yourselves in your day again.
And that’s just the short burn. Because a professional wedding album is for the long-term too. (Unlike that USB….)
I can’t tell you how magical it is to pore over my own family wedding albums. I can watch my Nan serenely step out of her wedding car with a bouquet so long it trails on the floor. And I have an out-of-body experience as my Great Aunty Ivy dashes to her wedding car in the pouring rain, sheltered by helpful wedding guests holding out umbrellas, and yet sporting the biggest smile. It's like I'm right there with them as it’s happening.
Think of capturing your memories as the first step
…and preserving them as the final piece of the puzzle.
A tangible legacy of your love
The safest way to store your photos
The most immersive way to relive your day
The forever appeal of these timelessly beautiful books will ensure they’re as treasured tomorrow as today.
Preserving your memories is a big deal.
So I (virtually) travelled the world to find the best of the best wedding albums. And the most “This will look so great on the coffee table!” ones are fine art books handcrafted by British brand Folio Albums.
They’re the Grace Kelly of wedding albums... Classically elegant with clean lines that make them thoroughly modern too.
But an album shouldn’t just look good. It must last. And these are crafted to last a lifetime - and beyond.
Handcrafted heritage pieces made to last
Charlotte & Stuart
“Looked through our wedding album a minute ago, just because, and we’re still so grateful. It’s just the best memory and makes us smile a big cheesy grin.”
Which one would you love to put on your coffee table?
This is the larger of my two albums. But rather than cram in more pictures, we'll use the extra space to make your photos bigger. Because clean uncluttered pages show off your photos better, and you’ll be able to fully appreciate the detail in your pictures.
The fine art wedding album comes in two sizes (10×10″ and 12×12″) and this is the 10-inch version. But don’t make the mistake of thinking it’s “the small one” - the album lays flat when you open it, giving you a large 20×10″ page.
Prepare your peepers – I’ve got just the thing
Heidi & Ricky
“Every time we look at our album it transports us back to the best day of our lives. Everything about the day is there but most importantly it captures the love we have for each other. It’s truly magical and we’ll treasure it forever.”
Keen as a bean to present your photos beautifully … but perplexed by the (really rather pricey) price of pro wedding albums? Let’s go behind the scenes…
Fine art albums start at £650 for the smallest album with the minimum number of pages and go up to £1410 for the largest album with the maximum number of pages. Most couples spend between £1000 and £1250, which gives a beautiful, substantial album that fully tells the story of the day.
HOW MUCH DO THEY COST?
Emily & Chris
“Our album is just such a beautiful product and it's so much nicer than it would have been trying to create something ourselves.”
Welcome! As long as you have fully edited high-resolution digital images in jpg format - without any watermarks - I can (and would love to!) create your album for you.
No, albums are an optional extra. I keep them separate so you have the flexibility to get one when you’re ready - because some couples like to spread the cost, others prefer to see their photos first before choosing. An album is the most beautiful way to relive your day and keep your story close.
Yes. You can order duplicates of your album - either in the same size or a smaller version - and there’s a discount for these. Or, if you’d like to create something just for them, they can have their own bespoke album with their choice of photos and cover material. Lots of couples add these as they make such meaningful gifts.
Absolutely. I have samples in every size. If you’re nearby in Northamptonshire, we can meet up so you can hold one in your hands. Nothing compares to turning the pages yourself, feeling the textures, and seeing how the photographs come alive on paper. If you’re further afield, I can give you a personal tour over a video call and talk you through the details so you can still get a good feel for the quality.
What a lovely problem to have! Don’t worry - I’ll help. To get started, just pick your absolute favourites, the non-negotiables that must go in. These initial choices show me which moments mean the most to you, so I can give them pride of place in the design. From there, I’ll build around them to tell the story of your day. It’s often easier to make decisions once you place photos on the page and see how they work together. Then, you can make any changes you wish until you’re 100% happy.
No, there’s no strict deadline. I usually suggest starting your album soon after receiving your gallery, before everyday life gently nudges it down the list. If you’d rather wait a little, your first anniversary is a lovely milestone - and rather fittingly, it’s ‘paper’!
