Stop... Album Time!

The Fall 2006 season is about to drop so its time to get album orders rolling for our Spring and Summer clients. We've got a deadline: all orders must be placed with our respective bookmakers by NOVEMBER 1ST to guarantee delivery in time for the holidays. While this date sounds far away, we want to make sure we have the time to give each album design the personalized attention it deserves so get your choices to us by September 15th and we'll have your albums in time for the holidays.

We are excited to introduce a new bookmaker to our catalog: Cypress Albums. Cypress brings an elegant twist to the timelessness of the matted album by using exquisite Japanese fabrics for binding. Each album is bound by hand and includes a matching presentation box custom made to protect your album over time. We feel that these tactile books are a classic and romantic alternative to sleek, modern album options and a perfect addition to our well rounded catalog. Check out some visuals:




We have also updated our Asuka line with new pricing which includes dust jackets and slip covers with your names engraved. Old prices are still honored, but in case you want to upgrade, here's what it looks like:
