Here’s Why Your Wedding Photographs Deserve to Be Printed
I’ve always been nostalgic person and growing up I loved riffling through old photographs and albums, hearing stories and seeing into the lives of my loved ones. In fact, it’s one of the reasons I became a wedding photographer and I find it so rewarding that I can enable others to reminisce in the same way. Your wedding photos are often one of the only things you get to keep once the day is over and I fully believe in the power of print to help take your memories to the next level. So, here are a few reasons why you may want to consider printing your wedding photographs…
The physical touch of print
In a world where so much is digital, instantaneous, and disposable, there’s not much that beats the magic of being able to slow down and hold something beautifully crafted in your hands. Technology can become outdated and digital files can become lost and forgotten, and you don’t want your most precious memories to go the same way. The physical touch of a fine art print or hand-bound leather album can often bring a deeper connection and make your memories more tangible. There really is nothing that feels more timeless and satisfying than enjoying images on paper rather than on a screen.
2. Create an heirloom
Have you ever looked back at old photographs of your parents or grandparents on their wedding day, spending hours chatting to your loved ones about their celebration and seeing how happy they were? Imagine in years to come, future generations doing the very same with your own wedding photographs and enjoying a glimpse of your love story. A beautiful leather album that is carefully designed with your favourite wedding images will certainly become a treasured heirloom long beyond our years.
3. Fine art wedding photography in print
Fine art wedding photography often uses light, colours and tones that you’d find in film photography. It’s usually soft, artful and painterly, making it the ideal option to take back to its roots and appreciate on beautiful archival grade paper. Your favourite images really will feel like a piece of art hanging on your wall and transport you back to your special day every time you catch a glimpse of it!
4. Share the love
If you’re anything like me, you’ll love a coffee table book. Why not keep your wedding album to hand so that your loved ones can browse through whenever they pop over? Not only will you love reliving the memories, but your guests will too! A beautiful fine art print or a mini duplicate copy of your main wedding album can make the most meaningful gifts for parents or family members who will cherish the reminder of such a special day.
My photography style is made for couples who appreciate and value the importance of tangible memories that last, which is why my albums and prints are hugely popular options amongst my clients. My fine art wedding albums are luxurious, hand-bound and designed completely bespoke to your wedding day. There’s a variety of beautiful neutral colours, fonts and print options available, so that your wedding day will forever feel timeless. Get in touch to chat further about your wedding memories and together we’ll tell a story that could only ever be yours.
