Fine Art Books

Of all my new products, this is what I’m most excited about!

I’ve looked all year for albums that I can put my name on.  I wanted albums that looked polished and modern, not stuffy and boring.  I wanted albums where images were printed directly on the pages — thick pages, not the thin magazine-style pages  — and where images could run off the edges.  I wanted hardcover albums that were easy to handle yet durable enough for frequent viewing.  I wanted albums that had the look and feel of an art book.  After 8 months, I found them!  These Fine Art Books are all that and a bag of chips!

The Collection

I offer three modern books:  10×10 Book of Love, 6×6 Book of Joy and 4×4 Brag Book.

To get a sense of their relative size, I took a photo of the three book sizes with my ring.  See below.

The 10×10 Book of Love is the ultimate way to display your artwork.  The 6×6 Book of Joy is a great personal-sized book and also makes a great gift.  The 4×4 is the perfect Brag Book for moms and grandparents to carry around to… well, brag about their gorgeous kids or grandkids!

The Packaging

All art books come in its own luxurious black satin bag!

Touchable Paper

The pages are matte, not glossy, which will make everyone want to touch it!  And don’t worry, the paper is smudgeproof and will not show fingerprints.

The special paper uses archival inks and enhances colors so every image looks vibrant.

Lay Flat Pages

My favorite feature are the lay flat pages!  That means, there are no ugly gutters, color changes or color bleeding on the fold crease.  And when you turn each page, the pages lay flat.

With lay flat pages, you can really get photos to stand out by using the entire space… from edge to edge.  So in a 10×10 book, a full spread image like the one above and below is a 10×20 photo!  This is a terrific way to showcase a large quantity of artwork from your photoshoot in beautiful, look-at-me sizes!

And since there are no gutters (that ugly white line that usually runs in the middle of each spread because each page is adhered individually to the book), you could put faces and other important elements right smack in the middle!  And it looks fabulous!

Thick Is Better

The thick cover is a laminated hard cover that is durable and washable.  It matches well with the super thick pages of the book.

Customizable

The cover, spine and back are unique and customizable.

You can also upgrade to a full leather cover or a 3/4 leather cover.  They are gorgeous!

The Design

My design taste is simple and clean.  I will design your Fine Art Book to reflect a modern style where the images are the focus on each page.

More Details:

* Each book has 30 pages (15 spreads).

* Additional spreads can be added.  See the Pricing page for specifics.

* All books, except Brag Books, can be purchased a la carte.

* The 4×4 Brag Books are special books that are only available in a package or when you purchase a 10×10 or 6×6 book.  (This is not my rule, but the album company’s rule!  This is because Brag Books are priced at cost.)

* Every image in your Book will be oomph-ified!  Click here to see examples.

* Leather cover upgrades are available.

* Discounts are given when you order multiple books that are identical — such as, when you order 1 Book of Love for yourself + 3 Books of Joy to give as gifts = Save, Save, Save!

* The creation process is simple.  You give me 3 lists of images:  1) Must Haves 2) Nice To Have and 3) Definitely Do Not Want Included.  And I’ll design your Fine Art Book!  You can view a draft of your Book and get 2 photo changes, if necessary (ie, swap a photo for another, switch a photo position).  And voila!  You get your Fine Art Album in 2 to 3 weeks from sign-off!
