The wedding album in its most historic and essential version will never go out of style.
I am talking about the album many of us probably grew up with.
The first wedding album we ever saw, the one kept in the bedroom wardrobe or behind some piece of furniture like a family relic.
Our parents’ album, an extra-large version of a photo collection, with important leather covers, sometimes made from some unknown reptile, and a suitcase that we later only saw in American films, full of bundled dollars…
Today, the technology behind this kind of product has changed.
We have hundreds of covers available, papers ranging from glossy to matte, boxes and packaging that can make a wedding album look spectacular.
But fortunately, there are still some people, some nostalgics, some minimalists, who give value to this kind of album and to those who still offer it.
These people are not interested in ultra-modern design, full-page continuous printing, elaborate layouts, gradients and all the other frills.
They are people who love photographs as objects, in their most natural form, and who understand that one of the safest ways to preserve them is to enclose them between two sheets of paper, all bound together in the form of a book.
Simple and essential.
The pleasure of having one photograph per page will make you give the right importance to each image, allowing you to appreciate each one individually, like a work of art.
It will no longer be a “photo book”, but a collection of high-quality photographs.
You will finally return to that feeling of admiring a quality photograph mounted onto the page of a book, a real photograph.
Why, today, with all the technologies that exist, do some people still love the “classic” album with photographs mounted onto the pages?
Here are the advantages:
– fewer photographs, only the essential ones
– higher fine art print quality
– greater durability of the photographic print
– essentiality, no futuristic technology, we are talking about photographs.
I designed an album with a number of features that make it essential,
while at the same time making it more precious than a commercial album
produced by a printing lab.tampa.
Among these features:
– “normal” dimensions: a book that fits on a bookshelf.
– photographs printed directly by me on high-quality paper using giclée technology, as true art prints.
– a book made in Italy, carefully designed and handcrafted, a one-of-a-kind piece.
– one photograph per page, allowing you to focus on one image at a time.
– photographs mounted onto the pages, giving a stronger feeling of the photograph as an object and as a work of art.
If you are interested in this type of album,
the classic one with photographs mounted onto the pages,
keep in touch and let’s talk about this object of yours, created to be passed down through generations.
