Why Are Professional Wedding Albums So Costly?


You’re eager to show off your wedding photos in the best possible way, but are you confused by the high price of professional wedding albums? Let’s go behind the scenes and see if professional wedding albums are really worth the investment.

Close-Up View of Quality

A few years back, I had the opportunity to work with Aston Martin. From a distance, the car looked utterly unimpressive. I squinted, looked around, and thought: “I don’t understand. What’s the big deal? Why are these cars so pricey?”
Sorry to all my AM fans. You’ll enjoy the ending.
Once I got close, I was able to see all the details. I noticed all sorts of intricacies: the aerodynamic roof shape, the subtle integration of Z shapes into the grill, the texture of the leather, and how the seat wrapped around me (yes, I did sit in it).
And. The. Door. Handle. Aston Martin’s door handle is unique. Opening it is called the ‘handshake.’ It’s almost like magic.
There’s also the service that comes with it. A photographer is involved, for starters! It’s not like buying a new car at your local garage.
Even before you consider the fact that this car was made by hand.
After seeing an Aston Martin up close, I can now appreciate why they are so special. I have to admit that it’s worth every penny. You can trust me; it’s not just slick marketing and a spicy cost.
This slow realization is what my couples experience when I show them a professional wedding album.


What Makes a Professional Wedding Album Special?

It’s Worth It!
The main differences are quality, expertise, and convenience.

Quality

My albums are made with fine art paper, which is specially designed to last for hundreds of years. It’s not an exaggeration! Your online-purchased album is lucky if it lasts more than 10 years.
Another consideration? Ink. Your professional wedding album is printed using premium pigmented inks. If you wonder if it matters, consider the oil paintings in museums. These masterpieces were made with pigment ink.
You can be sure that your wedding album is a true work of art.

Expertise

Creating an album that will be treasured for generations takes more than just putting photos on a sheet. A design eye that tells a story is essential. It’s not always easy to start with a blank sheet. That’s why I invested in my skills as a designer to match the style and feel of the album with the photos. Spoiler alert! It involves painstaking details and… a calculator.

Convenience

Every couple who has never created their own wedding album says, “We’ll sort out our album when we return from our honeymoon.” Seriously. It’s a challenge to design your wedding album. If you are fast, the design can take a few days. It can be difficult to keep up with all the small but important specifications and decisions. It’s easy to make costly mistakes. It’s not surprising that couples rarely produce their own albums. Many couples come to me after a few more years and admit that they have failed. Why not do it right now and enjoy your photos instead of waiting years?

Why Choose Professional Wedding Albums?

A professional wedding album is not the same as buying a cheap coffee-table book online using drag-and-drop templates. shudders
Beautifully bespoke wedding albums are available from professional photographers. The Aston Martin experience is available in an album format at a more affordable price. You can only truly appreciate the quality of a wedding album if you hold it and look through it.
You’ll notice a difference in the wedding album, which is designed to be held and touched.
TL; DR? A professional wedding album is worth the money if you want quality and gorgeousness, rather than a cheap, short-lived, and stressful album.
