A few days ago, my latest pride and joy arrived – the Mystique Series Album from PictoBooks. The outside of the handcrafted album features what PIctoBooks describes as customizable 3D texture which can either be ornamental or more simplistic. This is definitely not Avatar, but the effect is amazing. For my album sample, i chose the couple’s initials as the raised design – very fancy shmancy! And while the album is really posh, it’s also elegant and timeless. I’m so excited to show this to my next wedding client!
I’m so in love with this album that i created a whole slideshow (using my latest pro slideshow service from Animoto of course) dedicated to my album sample. It doesn’t do the album complete justice, but hope you get a sense of how impressive it is.
Today I received a very exciting album for one of my sexiest couples of 2009 – Lesley and Ali’s destination wedding in Puerto Rico. The album is made by PictoBooks which has been my boutique album company for the past couple of years and has been providing me, my studio and my couples amazing products from the first sample I ordered from them. This album is one from their “Signature” series, 10×10 (opens up to 10×20 panorama spreads), seamless, bound with the highest quality genuine leather and with a full cameo on the cover (cover photo). The album comes standard in a very fancy mahogany wood box, engraved with Lesley and Ali’s name and wedding date.
PictoBooks Signature albums have very unique additional features such as thick, water-resistant paper stock and come with a lifetime warranty!
I chose to have PictoBooks as my album provider because of their high standards and as always, in my studio I promise to deliver the highest quality products to my clients.
Remember the Saloni and Kyle album design post? I recently ordered the Mystique Series 3D cover design album, one of the latest products from Pictobooks, to include in my sample album stock. I just received the final product in the mail yesterday, and I cannot wait to share it with my clients!
The Mystique goes perfectly with the colorful and exotic photos from last year’s wedding. The album is wrapped in red genuine lambskin leather, and is detailed exquisitely with a henna-like design. The three dimensional design is continued on the back of the album, along with an engraved note, which can be personalized by the bride and groom to include vows or a special message. It’s such a unique album and I was totally blown away by the quality. Take a look at a few shots of the beautifully hand crafted album below.
