I have been scouting for an album company for quite a while. I had a list of criteria that I put all potential album companies through and none of them were knocking it out of the park for me. In fact, none of them came close to meeting all of my requirements…until I stumbled into Madera. This company was a home run with bases loaded. 

Out of all of my requirements, ultimately, I was looking at each company as if I were the bride. I needed quality. Really great quality. A wedding album is something that becomes an heirloom; a treasured collection of memories. I needed a company that could produce that for me. I refused to settle for anything less than what I would want for myself as a bride. Madera was almost too good to be true. In fact, as I ordered my very first sample album from them, I nervously waited for it to come in the mail because I really wanted this company to be as good as they seemed.

Well, guess what? They were better.

They exceeded my expectations in every way and I am so very proud to offer these top-quality, beautiful albums to my clients. The feel, the colors, the quality… I just keep picking it up to look through it one more time. And it’s not even my wedding album!

That, my friends, is how much I stand behind this product and how excited I am to see my clients’ faces when they open up their very own album for the first time.

The album comes protected in a beautiful, sturdy case with a magnetic closure.

The cover has the option of a photo inset as well as custom inscription. I chose both because I love making the album personalized from the very beginning.

The printing in this is so brilliant and vivid! Because of this particular couple’s wedding colors, I chose a very deep green as the background color and it really made the photos pop.

I chose an 11×14 for this album and a large numbers of spreads! The weight of the album is enough to give your arm a good workout and it equally settles into your lap just perfectly when you sink into the couch to look through it.

On the inside of the back cover, my logo is imprinted. Because I take great pride in not only the photos themselves, but also the design of the album, I wanted that stamp there similar to an artist signing a painting.
