The Matted Album - the perfect wedding photo album where traditional meets modern luxury

The Matted Album - the perfect wedding photo album where traditional meets modern luxury 

There's something incredibly special about discovering your parents' or grandparents' wedding album, flicking through the pages, seeing their younger selves captured in time, and hearing the stories those photographs hold. That experience, the emotional connection, the timeless elegance, is something digital galleries simply can't replicate. 

Now imagine having that same feeling, but with a modern, luxury twist that reflects your unique style and story. Introducing the Matted Album, a reimagined classic wedding album that you grew up admiring. 

The luxury Matted Album

A traditional style heirloom wedding photo album 

The Matted Album is more than a photo book. It's a handcrafted, storytelling piece made to preserve your most meaningful memories in a way that feels both timeless and personal to you. This album mirrors the style of a vintage traditional album with individually mounted prints and elegant white mats, but it's brought to life with contemporary details, refined materials and expert craftsmanship. 

Think of it as a modern heirloom, something that looks beautifully displayed in your home today and will feel just as meaningful decades from now when you're getting it out to show your own grandchildren. 

A fine art wedding album designed to showcase what matters most 

Each page of the Matted Album is designed to frame your images with intention, creating a stunning matted photo experience. Featuring softly bevelled cut mats that overlay your matte finish prints, it gives each image space to breathe and shine. 

The effect is striking; your photos are beautifully isolated and elevated, drawing your eye to each moment captured. From the quiet glances to the big "I do" moments, every detail is honoured and preserved. 

And thanks to archival, pigmented inks and six hand-assembled layers per page, you can trust that your images will stay rich, detailed and vibrant for generations.

 Personalisation options for your story book 

Your wedding album should be a reflection of you both, not just your day, but your personalities and style too. That's why the Matted Album offers personalisation options every step of the way.

Add up to two lines of custom text to your album and presentation box, perfect for your names, your wedding date, or a special phrase that means something to you both. 

Choose from a specially selected range of premium cover options, including soft leathers and fabrics in a variety of colours, from timeless neutrals to bold statement tones. 

Select your favourite album size, a classic 10x10" square or a sleek 14x10" landscape. 

The result? A truly unique photo album that looks and feels like you.
