album love...

When I started we didn't have a lot of money... well, no money actually and suddenly I had a pretty long list of things I 'needed to buy for the business'. I had pretty average equipment, a car that kept breaking down, no 'smart' clothes, no website... so everything seemed so daunting and so out of reach... but, very slowly I started to buy better equipment and god, I appreciated it... it felt a real luxury, like a treat to use, not an essential piece of kit.. it was that little step up the ladder.
My album was also something on my list. I wanted to find an album that really reflected me and my style and everything that I was about. I searched and searched and I finally found it but although sample albums aren't super duper expensive there was always something else.. lenses, memory cards, hard drives... to buy.
So about a month ago I designed my sample album and waited like the most impatient child for it to arrive. I had to pick it up from the post office after getting a 'We called, sorry you weren't in' card through the door and I literally skipped in there. I put the box in my car and looked at it and actually thought.. 'this is a bit of a moment for my little business'... stupid as it sounds, but it was... all the hard work in one little box.
I'm so proud of it. It's MY product. I made it with so much love and I can hold it in my hands and this journey has been a struggle in so many ways but it's a real result... and a really pretty result at that :)








My albums are hand-bound and covered in natural vintage leather. Your images are printed on to beautiful fine-art paper with a quality that will last a lifetime. The print process is a leap forward from traditional methods allowing vivid, rich colours to stand out from the page. The album is presented in a sleeve of natural cotton and stored in a keepsake box. Ohhh yum.

Maximo likes it too :)

I love these! Gorgeous albums by Blurb make me smile. Don't worry they're not ridiculously big.... it's just my friend Beccie, who's holding them is quite small. They're cute tho aren't they!
