Bespoke production...
Photography is a traditional media. While smartphones, tablets and the web have jointly widened the appeal of photography, nothing beats the feel and quality of the printed page. Books endure - they are produced with longevity in mind.
To compliment the key shots in your wedding set, we’re proud to offer the very latest spec in book production. These are one-off products, created to order, to the highest standards. Truly bespoke.
Beautifully presented, they will tell the story of an amazing day in a graphic, yet simple way. No screens, no internet, just optimum quality you can feel and enjoy for years to come.
Specification...
Benefitting from the feel and presentation of heavyweight fine art paper graded up to 200gsm, these stunning books revolve around an A3 page and are nearly 900mm wide when fully opened. Fully immersive in their appeal, the hand-stitched binding and attention to detail provides a lavish photographic conclusion to any shoot.
An embossed or laser etched cover ensures a luxurious start, and when combined with the choice of paper finishes and option to go to an incredible 100 pages, you can tell the whole story of a day or event. These fine art products are superior in the sphere of bespoke publishing…
Design...
Once your photography has been viewed, we can move right into producing a draft layout at your convenience. This is a design-led approach based on your provision of shortlisted images which will be curated in order to tell the story. We totally appreciate in some cases you’ll want to add, remove and/or amend some of the content. But this initial draft is a starting point to get the ball rolling.
Proofing...
Once the draft has been completed there’s a choice to view a digital layout and forward change notes, or talk through your changes during a video call where real time changes can be viewed as per your instructions.
Production...
With the design signed-off, we prep the completed layouts for final production. Following a painstaking process of printing, the pages are carefully hand-stitched. The order is then shipped back to us for checks and ultimately to the client. A personal handover acts as an excuse to meet for a coffee..!
Cost...
The philosophy behind everything supplied is choice.. The entire service exists to be tailor-made to exacting specifications.
If you have already chosen option B or C when you commissioned your wedding photography, then you have already paid for the basic spec of book, which is as follows :
- fine art paper in A3 - 60 pages standard (stand alone purchase price £850.00)
In many cases clients opt to expand the pagination, this can be done at a cost of:
- £20.00 per spread (2 pages to a spread), expandable in single spread increments (maximum overall book size is 100 pages)
(Prices subject to change in line with production cost increases if a book is created more than 3 months from time of order.)
