Soon we will be changing our album options and introducing the gorgeous new Folio Albums. Staying with us in the transition is the fabulous Art Book, made in the U.S.A with lovely fine art paper and photographic covers. We love these albums, they are extremely pretty; we are overcome with excitement every time the postman arrives with the tell tale box. Check out their prettiness for yourself…

We get very excited every time we introduce new albums and get a brand new sample album. When Parcelforce turned up with our new Art Book this morning (only 10 days after we ordered it from Vision Art in America!) we pretty much had a heart attack, possibly from the exercise of running down the stairs. After all the expectation it’s a relief that the new album is in fact AWESOME! It’s a proper fine art book (shocking!) printed on fine art paper which feels fantastic and it’s a great choice for a couple who really don’t want an album to be in any way ‘traditional’.
As we come to the end of our 5th year photographing weddings, we’re trying to streamline our album options – only using some of the best best albums companies the world has to offer with fantastic quality and fast turnaround times. We’re also going to be going all square for our album designs (no portrait or landscape options) because it just seems to work the best for how we shoot and it stops the number of choices becoming overwhelming. Our new album line up is going to be these Art Books as well as the equally fabulous Kiss Books. All our older albums will still be available but we’ll be phasing them out slowly with new clients.
Nicely packed!
The box is so pretty – printed exactly the same as the book so it wouldn’t look out of place on a bookshelf.
Love the chunky cover and lovely thick pages (there’s 50 pages/25 spreads in this book)
First page is looking hot – Rachel (the bride) shares our love of photography and had her camera with her on her own wedding day! We can relate to that!
The centre gutter is in there somewhere but it’s pretty much invisible.
Inside the print quality is flawless. The pages themselves are a very thick fine art matt paper which makes them look very different from our other albums which have quite a glossy, lustre finish to them.
Some last pictures of the book on our favourite chair.
We’ve added Art Books to our online store so if you haven’t got an album yet go buy one!
A new toy arrived at Lawson HQ today, the Lensbaby Composer. I’ve yet to take it for a proper spin, but for now here are a few shots it captured of the best and most stationary model of all…Puddington.
So far…this things ROCKS! Loving the magical quality, and really excited to take a few shots with it this weekend 
We’ve been waiting for this day for a long time – boxes with our logo on them! What could possibly be better than that?? Laura keeps talking about getting Lawson Photography t-shirts, but one step at a time!
We’ve been meaning to blog for so long, and it now seems a little late to write about Christmas and New Year! We have just been way too busy creating our new website and gallery, which is finally up and running. There are lots of fun new features, like the gift registry where clients can set up an account so that their friends and family can contribute towards a wedding album etc. We’ve had a few requests for this service in the past so we’re really excited to be able to offer it. You can also now order pretty much everything online; I’ll be posting soon about the easiest way to order albums, it is ridiculously easy now to order them online.
The main galleries are now private, but there will still be plenty of images from each wedding here on the blog as well as slideshows. We decided to start doing things a little differently, so there’ll be a few images posted a few days after the wedding, and a slideshow when all the images are ready. That way everyone gets a couple of posts!
Hope everyone loves the new look, any problems or feedback…get in touch!
