Where to source professional looking albums for film images?

ted_smith · Jun 30, 2008

Hi

I got married in 2002 and my wedding photos were taken using film and presented in a traditional wedding album.

How does one get such albums these days - especially the professional who is providing albums for clients? If shoot 10 rolls of film, and the client chooses 40 to go into an album, where can I buy suitable professional quality albums from (not wedding albums specifically, but any kind of albums) and are there any places who put the albums together for you without me having to scan every image in digitally?

I know about GraphiStudio, EverLeaf Pro etc but AFAIK they only do digital image presentation and as I say, I don't necessarily want to have to scan in every image to utilise their services?

Cheers

Ted

Have a look at Dead Link Removed

Thanks Dave - I have had a look at their site and sent an e-mail to them. I have also had http://www.gfsmithphotomount.co.uk recommended to me - again, waiting for a reply.

Any others? I would have thought that there's lots of APUG members that have to source albums for their prints so there must be more?

Jorgensen albums are top quality with a price to match. A lot of albums can be pre assembled so all you have to do is slip the photographs into the overlays. You plan your whole album, printing everything to the precise size of the overlays 10x7/ 10x8/ 8x6 etc. Then they will build the album with your choice of overlays and cover.

The Seldex range is another great album distributed in the UK by Spicer Hallfield.

Spicer Hallfield have a massive choice of albums suitable for weddings and portraiture. Apply for a catalogue or visit some of the trade shows which tour about the country.

Ted - I have found GF Smith to be excellent in quality and service.

Find your local rep on their website and phone them directly.

They offer the best combination of price and quality, and they always bend over backwards to help out.

Steve Finnerty is my rep - really nice guy.

Spicer Hallfield are a good bet. They have a rep touring the country at the moment so get in touch with them, I'm sure there will be something within reach of Derbyshire.
