Fine Art Wedding Albums
Hand made right here in Melbourne
It's a beautiful feeling
to sit together with your friends or family over a coffee and enjoy looking at your wedding photos, in beautiful, timeless print. It’s a feeling that can’t be replicated, turning the pages of something that you can touch and feel with your hands.
Viewing the images on a screen will never quite do photos the same justice as print does.
I have my wedding photos printed in one of the very same fine art albums that I supply to my couples. When I first received it, my wife and I took it over to my grandparents to show them. After we finished viewing our album, I asked my Nana if she still had any of her wedding photos around. Sixty-five years on from their wedding day, she even knew the exact place in the house where their album was. We then sat down together and slowly turned the pages, listening to my grandparents reminisce about that very day.
Their album only had a dozen photos in it. But they were twelve of the most beautiful wedding photos I’d ever seen.
“We smile every single time we look at the album.”
Absolutely nailed it!

What is fine art printing?
There's a lot of ‘wanky’ terminology out there, but when you physically see the prints or albums for yourself, you will notice a substantial difference between this style compared to other standard prints you may be used to seeing.
The fine art prints I supply are printed on 100% cotton, acid-free, museum-grade matte paper with a subtle watercolour texture. They are printed on high-end machines with a much broader colour gamut than your typical large format printer.
These prints will not turn yellow, fade or crack over time and are designed to look just as good in many many years as the day they were printed.
Add an album to your coverage
After the wedding, life gets busy and in the way. Before you know it, years have past and all your wedding photos are still sitting on a hard drive somewhere.
Up to 45 spreads (90 pages)
Choose the images yourself or leave it to me
Online Proofing before being sent to print
How many pages are in the album?
The albums I supply are 10X10 (square) and includes the first 20 spreads. (40 pages) You can build this album up to 45 spreads (90 pages) if you wish. The cost is $77 per extra spread.
How many photos will fit in the album?
To maintain a simple and beautiful look, giving maximum emphasis on every each image without looking cluttered, I recommend selecting no more than 80 images for 25 spreads. Some spreads may include only one image; some will consist of many more depending on the individual photos chosen & the design
Can I be involved in the design process?
Certainly! Via the online gallery of your wedding, you have the option to ‘heart’ the images which you would like to add to your album. I can then see which images you have selected, and they will then be designed into an album layout. You can then view the layout outline, where you leave comments & feedback until you are happy with the design. My album fee includes three lots of design changes, with additional changes at a $100 cost after that. Once you are satisfied with the completed design, you can then chose the colour & material of your album cover, and it is then sent off to be printed. I have dozens of album cover swatches for you at my workspace that you can check out. Typical turnaround time is about three weeks from this point.
Our album is just beautiful
Organise an album before your wedding, not after.
Have you ever been on a holiday, sitting by the pool, relaxed, flicking through all the awesome images you've taken during your trip on your phone. And you say to you partner- 'We've really got to print these images when we get home...'
Then you get home, life goes back to normal and it's something your just never get around to doing. And your photos sit on a screen forever.
Exactly the same thing typically happens after your wedding day.
Purchase an album upfront
“From our first meeting through to receiving our wedding album, Briggsy was an absolute dream to deal with. He is the perfect balance of professional and relaxed, always willing to provide advice or answer questions and won't leave you hanging for a reply.”
I offer an incentive discount of 20% off the album price to pre-purchase this way upon booking.
Our wedding album exceeded our expectations
Don't say - 'We'll get one later on'...
No one ever does.
I realise the albums are a substantial investment and it’s easy to say ‘we’ll get one later on’, however, from personal experience I know this rarely happens. Life gets busy, time runs out, and soon enough years have passed, and your wedding photos are still sitting on a hard drive somewhere. I highly recommend purchasing an album upfront.
