SAYWELLHQ WEDDING ALBUMS
In this video, I show you the two SaywellHQ Wedding Albums; the HQ Framed Wedding Album and the HQ Wedding Album.
WHY SHOULD YOU INVEST IN A WEDDING ALBUM?
I love designing wedding albums for my couples; it's fantastic to see the wedding images printed and coming to life in a wedding album.
In today's digital age, many photos end up stored on computers and phones or just uploaded and left in the cloud. A physical wedding album provides a tangible keepsake that captures the memories and emotions of one of the most significant days in a peoples lives.
“Hi Andy,
We’ve received our album, and wow!
It’s amazing!! This may be the best money that we have spent. We thought that the album would be good, but it has exceeded our expectations.
We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of your help throughout our wedding, before, during and after.
All our thanks”
THE HQ FRAMED WEDDING ALBUM
The HQ Framed Wedding Album was the first (and until 2024) the only album I offered; it is a unique wedding album and one which gets me excited to see when it’s delivered from Italy.
I searched high and low and spent a small fortune to find a wedding album which I would have loved to have had from my own wedding.
So many albums are boring in design, but the HQ Framed Wedding Album is a printed cover wedding album in a picture frame-like display case.

£475
As Standard, the HQ Framed Wedding Album is 30x20 cm, comes with 40 pages (around 60-80 images), has a printed image cover on the album, a picture frame box with a transparent lid, entirely designed by me, with unlimited revisions done via the SaywellHQ Gallery.

THE HQ WEDDING ALBUM
The HQ Wedding Album is a new addition for 2024 and is something I’m so proud to add as an option for my couples.
The HQ Wedding album uses panoramic flush mount pages, allowing images to be printed across the album's spread or spine, allowing me to create spreads not typically offered by traditional wedding albums.
The HQ wedding album, as standard, is bound with ‘Cloud Leatherette,’ a soft-feeling leather-like material, and is available in 40 colors.

THE WEDDING ALBUM PROCESS, PAYMENTS AND TIMEFRAMES
ORDERING A WEDDING ALBUM
Ordering a wedding album is easy.
An album can be added at the time of booking (which secures the price of the album)
Can be added during our final pre-wedding chat (around 8 weeks before the wedding)
It can be purchased through your wedding gallery after the wedding (only whilst the gallery is online; more on this later).
Payment for the albums is simple: the amount due is made up of two payments; the first payment is £200 and is non-refundable, and must be paid before work is started on the album's design.
The remaining balance (including optional extras) is due once the design is completed.
THE PHOTO SELECTION PROCESS OPTION 1
Some couples like to pick the images they want to be included in their wedding album; this is easy to do and is done by creating a favourites list within your wedding gallery and simply sharing that selection with me.
Image selection should be kept to no more than 80 images for a 40-page wedding album.
Be very strict with the choices, harsh, quick and decisive.
THE PHOTO SELECTION PROCESS OPTION 2
This option is the one that most of my couples go for. Let me select the images for the first draft.
The reason most couples want me to pick the images is time.
Most people do not have the time to go through the wedding gallery, picking out their favourite images and keeping the selection of images to a workable amount.
By allowing me to pick the images, I can show you how a wedding album should look and flow by picking the right images to show your story in print.
As you have unlimited revisions, it makes sense for me to do the main part of the selection and should you want to make some changes to my selections, you can do this as part of the revision process.
ALBUM REVISIONS
When the first draft of the wedding album design is complete, it will be uploaded to your secure wedding gallery. Any change requests made via the album proofing section within your wedding gallery are shared with me; I will make the changes requested and upload another version with the changes for you to review.
The final balance is only due once you are happy with the final design of the album.
THE TIMEFRAME FOR THE DESIGN AND DELIVERY
Once the initial payment of £200 has been made, the first draft of the wedding album design will be uploaded to your wedding gallery within 10 weeks of either the wedding gallery delivery day (if the album was ordered before the wedding) or the date of the payment if the album is ordered after the wedding.
Once you have signed off on the album's design and the final balance paid, the album will be sent to Italy to be made; delivery of the album to me from Italy is between 3 - 8 weeks.
Once the album is with me, I will be in touch to arrange either a DPD delivery to an address of your choice or a time for me to deliver it to you personally.
