Album Choices
Clients are often asking about the differences between the Gold and Platinum albums that I offer. In order to make this clearer for you, I created this page to show you the different album options and the advantages of each. I hope that this page will make it easier for you to select the best printed keepsake for you.
How does the design process work?
Once your photo gallery has been posted online, you will log in and select your favorite photos. Once you have made your selection, each of those photos will be professionally retouched to improve brightness, color balance, clarity and to remove any imperfections. When all the retouching is completed, the album design process begins. using those images to best tell your story of your day.
What do the albums have in common?
• All images are fully retouched before being put into the final product
• All are press printed products
• All the images are printed from calibrated photos, which means that the skin tones and colors are as they should be
• Typical sizes are 10x10 (but this can be customized) and have approximately 60 pages
How many images should be selected for an album?
We typically tell people to select between 80-110 images. This allows the flexibility to create images that show well, without forcing too many small images into a layout.
