Let’s play a little game called “Free Association”…….
1. THINK: Wedding Album
2. FORGET: Mom and Dad’s big black book that smells like an old library
Here at onelove photography, we don’t do cheesy wedding photos. That means we don’t do cheesy wedding albums.
ARTISAN ALBUMS
These are flush mount* albums with attitude. Exquisite quality combined with fabulous leathers and upgrade options like FABRIC covers. Move away from the ordinary into the extraordinary.
*FLUSH MOUNT/MAGAZINE-STYLE = “Flush mount” albums have hard covers with thick, unbending pages. The photos lay completely flat and extend across the whole page. Flush mount albums are usually designed in magazine-style. The term “magazine-style” refers to the design style inspired by fashion magazines, but the style can vary depending on each wedding company’s design style.
The beauties. Designer album boxes are optional.

Remember when you used to buy a disposable camera, take it with you on a trip, and wait with wonder at the photo lab for what magical photo surprises await you? Oh yeah. I remember it like it was yesterday. Because it really was.
We are living the in digital age. It has sprung up on us in a matter of only about 10 years. While we have the ability to “oooh” and “ahh” at the iPad, iPod, iThis, iThat….. how many of us miss those good old paper things called “prints’? How about the cool artwork booklet that came with your CD?
As fun as it is to be able to share your photos virtually online via Facebook, email, etc, nothing compares to the tangible. Something to hold and share. Something to frame.
For all you brides and grooms of the digital age that are having withdrawals from your non-digital life (Before cell phones existed? NO way!) you may want to consider our Proof Boxes:
Front (Tan): 4x6 Proof Box, Back (Black): 5x7 Proof Box
- Image mounted onto left opening door, prints enclosed with ribbon underneath for easy-lifting and viewing
All Proof Boxes hold 100 images
OUR LITTLE GREEN PIECE
Looking for green and good citizens, you say?
We prides ourselves in being a good citizen and working with one of the greenest album companies around. They take great care in selecting the materials they use. They take great care in how they package our products and they even have an extensive office recycling program. How’s that for green?
Some other ways we strive to stay green include:
· Our “pleathers” are all PVC free.
· We try to include many fabrics – even better!
· We will not use hides that have been tanned in Asia. The working conditions are simply too poor.
· Our product packaging is completely green
- Hand-made recycled pineapple leaf paper used for wrapping
- Hand-made recycled Mulberry leaves used for the ribbons
- Mulberry skeleton leaves used for decoration
- Natural kraft tissue used in wrapping and packaging
- Corn starch peanuts used as packing materials
- Paper tape used to seal all boxes
- Completely recyclable cardboard used for packing and shipping
· All our other packing is made from all natural organic materials that can be reused and recycled.
· The peanuts we receive from Seldex are biodegradable and any unused peanuts are recycled to a pack and ship facility.
· Every possible scrap of paper, glass, metal and plastic is recycled.
· Our albums are constructed from as many natural, post consumer, and completely recyclable materials as possible.
· Everything is made by hand. If it weren’t for building lighting, a power failure would hardly effect our production.
· Our products are made in the USA, as are all their component parts. We are proof that small manufacturing can survive and prosper in this country.
HOW LONG DOES ALL THIS TAKE?
After the design is approved, our albums are delivered to your door within 8-10 weeks.
