Gorgeous photography is the first step. The next step is to bring your beautiful images into your life and home so you can enjoy them as art and for the memories they evoke, share them with your friends and family, and eventually to have them as historical images to share with your grandchildren years from now. We believe beautiful images deserve to be preserved and presented in the most beautiful way. Each of our albums, books and boxes is custom designed and made to order. After searching for years and experimenting with many album binders throughout the USA and beyond, we fell in love with our “Queensberry” albums which are custom crafted in New Zealand. These album binders are artisans of the finest albums we have seen. Through the highest quality materials and superb craftsmanship, these albums, books and boxes are true heirloom pieces, lasting generations to come. Our Queensberry Albums can be designed in either a traditional style using heavy mats custom cut for each image; in a contemporary, flush mounted style (smooth pages with no mats or texture), or as a Duo (our “signature album style”), which is a combination of the two styles. Press books (called “Q Books”) are also an option. They are more like a high-end coffee table book with the images imbedded into the book paper. Presentation boxes are beautiful custom made boxes which hold a special selection of your favorite matted or un-matted photographs. More information about each style and all options available are detailed below.
No matter what style album you choose, we custom design each one using your choice of images to beautifully tell your story. Albums can feature your images in color, black and white, or a mix of the two. With any of our album styles basic retouching is included (blemish removal, lightening shadows under eyes, teeth whitening, and other “natural looking” retouching as needed). Please browse through our options below and don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any questions.

Mini duplicate albums are available as an add-on to your primary album order. See details below:
Mini Duplicate Albums for “Duo” and “Flushmount” style albums: A mini duplicate is a copy of your primary “duo” or “flushmount” style album, but smaller, with flushmount pages, and with a plain cover*. Matted pages are not available for mini duplicates so even if your primary album is a “Duo” (which has a mix of flushmount and matted pages) your mini duplicate will have all flushmount pages (no mats).
Mini Duplicate Albums for press-printed “Q-Books”: If your primary album is a press-printed “Q book” any mini duplicates will also be a press-printed “Q book”. Mini duplicates for Q-Books are identical to the primary book, but smaller, and with a plain cover*.
* All mini duplicates come with a plain cover no matter what style cover you choose for the primary album. Specialty covers (such as wrap-around or inset photo covers) are not possible for mini duplicates. Depending on your fabric or leather choice, cover embossing may be an option at an additional cost. Please ask for more details.

ALBUM STYLES
Queensberry Flushmount Albums have smooth pages with no mats. Drama can be created by designing your album to have some images flow from one page across to the next or all the way to the page edge. As with all Queensberry albums, construction and quality is exquisite. Each album has a translucent “vellum” first page with your names, wedding date, etc and albums come in a pretty velvet bag.

Each album has a translucent “vellum” first page with your names and wedding date, and albums come in a pretty velvet bag.

Press Printed “Q Books” are modern and stylish with the look and feel of a coffee table book. Because the pages are thin they can hold more images per album than and typical wedding album/book, so they are popular with those who don’t want to narrow down their photographs. Images can be printed on your choice of beautiful paper (see paper options below). Each book has a translucent “vellum” first page with your names and wedding date, and additional translucent pages can be added if desired to separate sections of your day (ie: “getting ready”, “ceremony”, “celebrate!” etc.).
Note: Due to the bendable quality of the photo paper, similar to most coffee table books, the pages will curve as they get closer to the spine so they will not lay entirely flat they way they do in our other types of albums.
