When I built my photography business, I purposefully fashioned it around what I would want as a bride.
I hate salesy-things. I hate pushy car salesmen, sticky telemarketers, and shifty door-to-door dealers. Anything that looks or smells like a “pyramid scheme” makes me nervous and most multi-level marketing business models scare me.
The last thing ever I want to do is make any of my KAP Couples uncomfortable. I just knew that if I was uncomfortable with something like setting people down after I’d taken their photos & forcing them to make snap-buy-decisions, then that would, in turn, make my clients uncomfortable.
So when I built certain structures into my business – I did so intentionally. I determined that I would never “sell” anything that I didn’t 100% believe in and want for myself!
Bottom line: I only “sell” one physical product. All of my photography sessions come with the digital files & a print release. I give my KAP Couples instructions on where I personally recommend they get their images printed, but to me, giving them the freedom to have their images printed whenever, wherever, and however they’d like is most important.
But there is one item that you absolutely cannot get just anywhere. And that is the one item that I sell. You can get a professional print made as a “non-professional” person, but you cannot have a professional album made. You can have “albums” made, but nothing rivals the quality that I can provide as a professional.
And that’s the reason I offer wedding albums. I always give each and every one of my KAP Couples the opportunity to add an album on to their 100% customized wedding package.
I believe in these books. I believe in the love that is found within it’s pages. I believe in the power of the printed photos. I believe in the stories that they tell. I believe in the legacy that they hold. I believe in them standing the test of time. I believe in children & grandchildren looking thru these albums.
I believe in these books.
So, when I show these albums to future KAP Couples, you can be sure that I am only doing so because I 110% believe in them. You cannot get a quality album printed like this anywhere but through a professional, and that’s why they are the only physical product I offer.
I wish you could smell the leather! I wish you could feel how soft the pages are! I wish you could see how thick the pages are! I wish you could hold this book in your hands & feel how heavy it is! But, since you can’t do that (unless you really want to! I’d love to show you some of my sample albums!), how about some photos? I mean, for once I feel like photos truly don’t do these albums justice because they are absolutely gorgeous, but I’ll try!
These are images of Chris & Chrissy’s 10×10 leather album – if you’d like to see my full blog post of Chris & Chrissy’s wedding day highlights, hop on over to that post here!
If I’ve photographed your wedding and you have had every intention of ordering a wedding album but have just kept putting it off (or forgetting) – why not send me a quick message right now & we’ll get the process started? It’s actually a lot of fun to work through & you can have one of these incredible books as a part of your family history in a matter of weeks!
