Album Info

You'll want to keep yours out on the coffee table to show off!

Heirloom quality and color-fast printing will withstand decades of appreciation.

Phrases like "heirloom," "archival quality" and "lasts for generations"- sounds gimmicky, what do they mean?

I'm with you, I'm done with hype.

If you are in my home with your eyes and hands on my family albums comparing my early 2000s Shutterfly albums with our recently printed family albums, you would immediately be able to tell the difference! (Our Shutterfly albums, bindings have loosened, pages are bent. Flimsy. They hold and feel like cheap, well-loved children's books from the thrift store; even hardbound Little Golden Books would have been a step up.)

What the above phrases mean:

Ink used- true fade-resistant color. Stuff like this seems like it should be this way anyway. Who knew getting correct, colorfast colors can be a gamble?!

Not only do I have 10-20 year old albums from Shutterfly and such to compare with, I did a test by ordering identical prints from Walgreens & my lab. I compared colors, and I left them near the window for a spell. I've noticed through the years Walgreens/Walmart can be hit or miss on color (note: they can truly be decent prints! This can vary by location depending on printer calibration), but they will likely fade- they are not fade-resistant. When you want to buy them once, leave them for up decades and be able to keep them in the family, a professional print lab is ideal.

Sturdy construction- albums from quality labs can take some love. Pages stay intact, the hard binding protects (and holds together through the years!). Double thick layflat pages, these will hold up well if handled by children.

You get the peace of mind you get knowing your memories will hold up a long time!

What are the albums like?

All albums are designed by Courtney- you do not need to mess with tedious consumer album sites (story time- I have abandoned so many album projects before I had professional tools and I ordered from Shutterfly, Mixedbooks, and such! It took SOOO much finagling to make albums online on consumer sites. But you won't have to- I will design your album for you!!!

When ordering an album, I send over an easy questionnaire where you choose features (examples shown below).

Wedding albums are automatically all out luxury- genuine leather option, photo on cover, layflat pages with rounded corners, up to 80 pages. This album is your time capsule from the day, and it will last through your kids to your kids' kids!

The most important way to print our memories

I keep costs as low as I can on albums, I truly want this to be an easy yes to help you take your photos off your hard drives into an album your family can revisit and treasure. Also, to keep it extra easy, I design every album for you!

Story time- I purchased "canvas" from a cheap online site like the Canvas People or such like 10 years ago. After starting my business and learning about quality, I inspected my art- it was literally built like a pizza box! No actual canvas, no frame. I disassembled one of them, it was- for real- like a cardboard pizza box with a picture on it that I had put on my wall. SOOOOO CRAZY
