When Kamran and I attended WPPI this year, I had one big goal: to find the best album company out there.  After three days of visiting with every company I could, I finally found the album I was looking for.  There was just something different about this one, from the fine quality of the museum quality paper, to the fact that the owner of the company himself spent an hour chatting with me and showing me his books.  I called Kamran and told him to come check them out, and when he opened the book it only took him 15 seconds to agree – this was The One.

We recently received our first sample book from our new album line, and I am in love. Loooove.  As I mentioned, these books use museum matte paper, with archival quality  inks that make the colors of the images just pop off the pages.  The colors are true and vivid, and make you feel like each page is a work of art.

This book also features a true lay-flat, gutterless binding.  This means that there is no crease between the page, so that you can print panorama spreads across two pages without disrupting the image.  It is awesome.

The Photo Art Album also comes standard with an image-wrap cover, which is created with the same high-quality paper, with an extra layer of protective gloss that makes it shine beautifully.

Finally, there is also an option to purchase a protective box to store your album for safekeeping.  We designed this box to match the covers of the album.  The black felt lining feels luxurious to the touch, and provides a soft surface for your album.  Seriously, I can’t stop running my fingers over it!

I’ve included a number of photos below, both of the box and the album.  But really, you have to see it in person.  You’ll fall in love, I promise.
