Albums and Prints
So here is the thing. I do believe photos should be printed, and not just sit on your hard drive or cloud.
Printed photos – whether it’s an album, or print, or even a calendar – give you a completely different feel, something tangible to hold and enjoy every day. They make great heirloom pieces!
When I lost all my wedding photos and videos due to hard drive crash, the only thing left from our wedding was a small album of formal photos with our friends and family. It was scary to lose everything else, but at least now we have something memorable for years to come.
That changed my attitude towards albums and printed photos completely. If a disaster happens with our home, one of the first things I pack (after everyone is safe of course) will be our family albums.
Our clouds are overflown, and photos on your phone become an endless flow of information that you eventually forget about. I’m sure you already are feeling it when opening your phone photo reel. That’s why now albums are more important than ever. They will keep all the key moments on your shelf or coffee table, so they are not lost in the cloud.
So I thought I have to make sure my clients recognize the importance of having their photos printed, and created this page.
Below are a few key options you will find in my packages. But these are not all of them! 😃I have so many more printed products available for you to choose from once your gallery is ready.
