I have recently done a wedding where the bride & groom were on a budget and have only chosen to have 40 6x4" images. I was wondering if anyone knows how it would be best to present them..........a slim white box with white tissue paper in perhaps?

I am throwing in 2 9X6" images out of the goodness of my heart to make their day a bit special !! :) These I think I will put in white fold mounts.

Any ideas as to the presentation of the initial 40 6x4" prints that they are putting in an album themselves would be helpful, thanks.

And if their families order larger shots later... maybe in 1's & 2's, I think I will put those in mounts. I tend to think a number of 6x4"'s would be silly in a pile in mounts.
 
How about something like this John Lewis album, this was the first one I Googled and there are obviously many more out there which won't break the bank.
 
I use these boxes for print-only packages

These look just what I need.. except how do I know how many they will hold as it doesnt have a depth to them.

And, Dave, I thought they would love to find they have 2 free larger prints as a surprise, that they would otherwise have had to pay £30 for. Perhaps I wont bother if they wont appreciate it.
 
I do a budget package and use an album from max spielman.
The album holds 100 prints though, so you could fill that for them with high street made prints. The album costs £10 and 100 prints around £12 they would be happy with that I would think.

One would probably hold 40 prints, get a couple to be sure.
 
A box sounds a nice idea, they are probably really looking forward to doing their own album, so there may be no benefit in buying a cheap album. When I got married, I didn't want an album from the photographer, we just bought the prints and I really enjoyed putting together my own album with captions etc that meant something to us!

I'm sure they will appreciate it Janice, just pulling your thingey

However, if you want to really impress them and have an advert on their wall, here's a tip (I'm about to start using) from one of Australia's top Pros...

Pick an image you like as a powerful statement of your style of photography and/or your PP style - have a big'un printed with www.janice.com or whatever in a corner and give them it as a "Gift from your Photographer"

They hang it on their wall, and everyone who comes in will go "WOW, who did that?" or some such is the idea

How much to blow on this form of advertising? Well I'm using these http://www.wilkinsonplus.com/invt/0225434 which are just £6 for a 20x16" that takes a mounted 16x12", so depending on where you get the print - about £10

Worth a try? They will love you to bits I reckon

:thumbs:

Oh, and I like the boxes thing too
