Presentation products with added sparkle
Album Epoca's pitch to prospective customers, namely that it will turnyour art into art of its own, in the shape of its high-end products, canbe hard to resist, with attention to detail extending to the packagingas well as the product.
While it's now easier to check out and order Album Epoca's latest products,the new products themselves include a new professional 'coffee-table' bookrange which is being pitched as extremely versatile and perfect for those seeking to tell a story with their imaging - whether we're talking aboutnewborn and baby sessions, christenings, communion or confirmationdays, along with fashion, reportage, sport and art shoots. Each coffeetablebook features a hardback cover, with or without padding, that canbe printed on gloss photographic paper with matt or gloss lamination ora special selection of materials. An alternative is a version in fabric with acustom photographic dust jacket. The binding technique does not, it says,include the insertion of an interleaving tissue paper between the spreadsand therefore creates a lighter effect that avoids page warping.
The customisation option kicks in with this family of products too, inallowing photographers to select from a wide range of formats - includingvertical, square or horizontal - papers and cover types. Family portraits,fashion shoots, sports events, baptisms, communions and more - whateverthe memory you're selling to your client there is a solution to best suit, andas luxurious as your customers might want.
As a case in point, recently announced for March are four different newcover materials: Soft touch, 'Galuchat' (roughened, untanned leather look),Viscose and Linen. These can all be personalised with text and graphicsdesigned specifically for each event or photo session. The palette ofavailable colours ranges from pastels to bright colours to black. Paper typesavailable for block printing include: photographic paper in matte or glossyHD with flex binding on continuous pages; or press paper in pearl, satinor matte, with the option of UV treatment for a sparkly effect, and withpaperback binding.
