| Wedding packages 'Three' to 'Six' include bookbound albums which are handmade in Italy, Tony Sarlo and his family select the best materials to create an album which will last; and each year they introduce new concepts, some of which become classic features.
Albums have always been square to allow aan upright or view print to be mounted on the page without problem. Previous to 35mm, medium format cameras were square and so there wasn't an issue - all images were taken square. The only issue with a square album is the top/bottom or left/right bands for rectangular prints. There are two sizes - 11inch and 13inch album, both can take up to 25 double-sided pages; which is quite a size!
A few years ago the A4 and A3 albums were introduced and have created quite a sensation. Available in Upright or View format they allow a predominantly Portrait or Landscape wedding to have full sized prints displayed, without spacer bands. The downside id that any portrait images need to be downscaled in a View format and vice versa for landscape images. We recommend the View format as the majority of wedding images are just that.
