Your Wedding Album
Designed, Built And Delivered By Hand
You may be wondering how our wedding album process works, so I’d like to run through what happens after the wedding until your final album is delivered to your door. We custom design every collection tailored to your requirements. I’ll show some images from an album I’ve worked on so you can see my current design flow.
Design and build the wedding album
After I've created your final set of photos, I'll go through them one last time to edit them down into what I think is the absolute perfect set of pictures from the day. These are the photos that I think will look great in the wedding album and that give a balanced account of what happens on the wedding day.
Your wedding album will have 40 pages included. Before starting to design, I’ll check with you to see if you’d like me to keep exactly to the number of pages included in your package, or whether you’d like me to design a few more. Sometimes couples see the extra pages and upgrade so they can have them all in their album, but if you want to make some changes and get the page count back to what’s included in your package, that’s OK too.
Wedding album proofing
I use a program called Album Proofer by Fundy Software for you to view and proof your album pages. As you look through the album, you can enter any comments into the box to let me know if you would like to keep the page or disregard it. As well as deleting pages, you may want to change some of the photos to ones you’d prefer instead, and this can be done using the comment box as well. It’s vital that you communicate all the changes you want during this first proof revision so I can get to work refining your album, and make it just the way you want it. Most times, only a few changes are needed, and the wedding album can be signed off and ordered after the first revision. There is no limit to the changes you can make in this revision.
Wedding album design
Once the changes are complete, I’ll upload the revised album for you to proof. It should now look like your perfect wedding album. If you do a second revision of your proof, this is in your package price, and you can make these changes in the comment box just as before. I make the changes and re-upload the album for you to proof again.
Time to pick your cover
Picking your album cover couldn't be simpler. Once you have received the link to the brochure, all you have to do is email me the code for the material and colour. You also have the option to add wording to the front of the cover.
Album delivery
When it comes to creating your album, winter weddings are completed in just a few weeks, but for high season weddings (August and July) it may take a little longer. The first design can be ready within a few days of your wedding gallery delivery. The typical turnaround time is six weeks from the album approval.
