FAQ
Yes, I do! I offer several payment plan options to suit your needs. For more information, please reach out and we can set up a payment plan for you.
The albums come standard with 30 pages (15 spreads), accommodating a total of 50-70 images. The maximum number of pages is 45 and each extra spread is $60. If you would like to add more pages to your album, just let me know.
Yes, you certainly can! However, please note that my top package includes a wedding album at a significantly reduced cost - so if you are leaning towards getting an album, I highly recommend booking my top package for some cheeky savings. Believe me, you won't regret having one of these beautifully design albums in your home!
The paper is high grade, [Choose the stock you offer: either - 'fine art matte paper', 'Canson® Infinity Photo Lustre paper'].
The luxurious pages are [place your choice of page thickness in here - either: 1mm, 2.5mm] thick, ensuring the sturdiness of the pages so they forever remain flat and do not warp. The album uses the best paper grade for printing ensuring your wedding album stands the test of time.
As many as you like! However, I do recommend allowing the pages to have some breathing room so each and every photo has the chance to shine! I suggest having no more the 6 images on most of your albums pages. In saying that, the only exception are the end pages - I tend to pack in lots of dance photos on the final pages to wrap up your story with a fun bang!
It's hard not to love them all!! But not to worry, I've got you! To make it easier for you, I can help with filtering the first round of photos, selecting images that best tell the story of your day. From there, you can add, delete or swap images until you're 100% happy!
Adding photobooth and dispensable camera photos are a really fun idea. I can leave a few extra pages at the back of the album for us to add these images in the design. I advise against mixing these photos with the "professional" photos as the tones will be different and won't work well together.
The wedding albums come standard with 30 pages. This is a good number of pages for a standard wedding.
If you had a large wedding (150+ guest list), had portrait photos taken at multiple locations, and/or had a multi-day wedding, all of which you'd like included, you may want to add extra pages. The maximum number of pages is 45.
A 30-page wedding album can accommodate around 50-70 images. Images are placed in the album in order of events of the day. This will ensure that all of the photo tones work together as the colours in the images will change according to the specific location, time of the day, etc.
If you are unsure of how many pages your wedding album should have, I can create a draft for you with as many pages as I think your album needs, The first round is a draft where you are welcome to add/delete images and remove/add pages. Your wedding album comes with several draft rounds to make sure everything is perfect before we send it off to print.
Most couples feel happy with their design after 2-3 rounds of amendments.
Yes indeed! I will send you a digital proof as soon as I put together the design. You are welcome to add, delete or change images via our easy-to-use digital proofing system. This is where you'll be able to add comments directly to the pages and let me know the changes you would like - everything is done online! Two proof rounds come included in the price of your album. Beyond the two proof rounds, you can add extra proof rounds for $70 per round.
I will keep your design for up to 3 years and in this time you can order a second album, such as a parent album, at a discounted cost. Once the 3 years has past, any new album purchases will be at full price.
Absolutely! These beautiful albums are perfect for any shoot! If we have done a newborn session, family shoot or any other shoot together, we can certainly create a bespoke album to house your memories. Albums also make great gifts - family albums are perfect for a Mother's/Father's Day gift.
Yes, parent albums are priced at a discounted rate as they are essentially smaller replicas - same orientation and photo selection - of your wedding album. This means you will not need to pay for the proofing process. Due to this, parent albums can only be ordered in conjunction with your wedding album.
Please allow up to 4 weeks for your first draft to be sent. As I work full-time as a photographer, unavoidable delays may also occur during the busy season. If there's a special date you would like to receive your albums by, such as a birthday, Christmas, anniversary, etc, please let me know and I'll see what I can do!
The timeline of receiving the final album is also dependent on you as I'll need your help with proofing and approving the draft round/s. The less back-and-forth changes we have, the quicker the process will be.
Once you are 100% happy with the album we will send the design off for print. You will then receive your album in the post 3-4 week from the time we sent the design to print.
Your album will come with a detailed care instruction card to help you ensure its longevity.
It is best if you;
- keep your album out of direct sunlight
- store your album in a non-humid, cool, temperate place.
- store your album flat
- keep sticky mitts away from your album pages!
Shipping within Australia is complimentary. However, if you're located outside of Australia or would like to send an album to a friend or family member overseas, please let me know and I will provide you with a shipping estimate.
Prior to finalising your album design and sending it off to be printed, you'll have multiple proof rounds to ensure you are 100% happy with your album. As your album is a handcrafted, customised piece, I unfortunately can't provide a refund once it's been printed.
In the rare instant your album is damaged in the post or there is a mistake in the album due to an oversight/error (something that you did not approve), then I'll replace your album for free, at no additional cost.
The album design process begins as soon as your non-refundable album deposit is paid. From selecting and curating images, designing the layout, creating a story flow and contacting the printers, a lot of time and energy is committed to creating your wedding album behind the scenes. Therefore, the deposit is non refundable, and the final payment of your album, which is due before print, is also non refundable once paid.
If you have any questions or are feeling uncertain, I recommend booking an in-person appointment with me so we can chat through it and I can show you some sample albums, for your peace of mind.
