Heirloom Albums & Wall Art
Your First Heirloom
Even though I cringe at the thought of saying the word cherish out loud—there’s no other way to put it. The feeling of looking back on all of your wedding photos in one beautifully curated book is a comforting, heart-warming sense of nostalgia that you’ll cherish for a lifetime.
So, no—an empty promise to ‘print them later’ and throw them into a cheap album off the internet simply won’t do. Your happy memories deserve better than that, because (warning: about to say something kinda cryptic) you never know how many you have left.
Custom, curated heirloom albums are included in all of my wedding packages (and are offered as an option to add onto elopement packages) because I know how much having your amazing wedding day preserved in print will mean to Future You.
How It Works
1. Reveal Session
Once your gallery is ready, we’ll schedule a photo reveal session where you’ll see a pre-designed album and can make changes and swaps of photos and spreads during the meeting! By the end you’ll have your entire album designed and you can pick your album’s size and amount of spreads.
2. Customize
After that you choose customizations and add on options. This part is super fun! You’ll choose the album cover material and debossing options. I’ll send back the design layout, and you let me know if you want any changes made within 48 hours.
3. Order + Love
Once you love it, you can decide on how many copies you want and in which sizes, we’ll put the order in and you’ll have it in 4-6 weeks!

Additional Spreads & Debossing
A spread is two pages layflat in an album. A base # of spreads is included in ach album, but most people end up with 25 spreads (50 pages). The max amount of spreads you can have is 50 (100 pages). Each additional spread is $75.
Debossing is when you imprint into your album cover, creating a depressed effect. You can opt to deboss your names and/or your wedding date on the front of your album, or a short quote that’s meaningful to you. This is totally optional, as some people would rather have the front cover be simple and plain. Debossing is a $100 add on.
Mini Albums
These albums also work great for gifts. They are an exact mini replica of your own album, no changes can be made. These can only be added on when purchasing a full album. Also, these albums are made out of recycled materials from your bigger album, which is pretty sweet.
6x6 $700
Parent + Additional Copies
If you want additional copies and sizes of your album, you can order them at a slightly discounted price. These can only be added on when purchasing the full album. These make great gifts for parents and grandparents! You also have the option of swapping a few photos in and out.
8x8 $800
10x10 $1500
12x12 $2000
FAQs
Why are they so expensive?
Can’t I just make and print an album myself online?
These albums are the real deal - they’re heirloom albums and crafted to stand the test of time and last for generations. They’re lay-flat offering full panoramic views, and have thick pages with the highest archival quality ink and paper, plus hand-stitched binding to add craftsmanship and durability. In other words, everything that’s used to create your album is museum-quality stuff and you won’t find this shit at Walgreens as they are exclusively sold to photographers. (Seriously, we have to fill out applications, and it’s part of the reason you hire a professional!)
How long does it take?
The Reveal Session can take a couple of hours but the good news is that the album design will be finalized which means we won’t spend the next few weeks or months going back and forth on edits. Once the design is finalized, you will receive your album within 4-6 weeks!
What happens at the reveal session?
We celebrate! First and foremost, I want seeing your photos for the first time to be a special experience. So after we get settled and pour some champagne or cocktails, you’ll see your photos in a beautifully curated slideshow of all the highlights. After that we’ll review your pre-designed album and finalize each spread. Lastly, if you sent me photos of your home for wall art, I’ll show you some custom collections to hang your photos on your walls.
Can I see or make changes to the album before I order?
Yes, each album is custom designed from your gallery. The goal of our Reveal Session will be to finalize your album design so you love every page of it. If you change your mind on the design after our session, you have 48 hours to request any changes before I put in your order.
Are there any other costs?
Yes - taxes, 6.25% for MA or 8% for NY. And shipping is on me, but if you want to rush your order and receive your album in 7 days, you can do that for an extra $100.
Do I have to decide now?
Nope! Unless you have an album included in your package, if you want to wait until you’ve received your gallery and the wedding craziness has calmed down, that’s cool. A lot of people also like to order their album for their 1 year anniversary or someone they love will order it for them. Copies also work great as gifts for parents and grandparents! If you want to order for the holidays, make sure to let me know by October 1st.
