Made in Britain by Folio Albums
Everything from Folio Albums is handmade to order at their workshop in Yorkshire, England by a team dedicated to ensuring each album is a truly special one-of-a-kind creation. Whether you desire bespoke customizations, personalised touches, or simply an exceptional finished product, their artisans' meticulous attention to detail shines through. The archival-quality materials are printed directly onto the luxurious pages that open flat with an almost invisible crease, allowing your images to span across the seamless double-page layouts.
Fabric Cover Choices
The album's cover sets the elegant tone for the journey contained within its pages. Folio albums offer a vast array of premium materials carefully curated for their unparalleled quality and sustainable sourcing:
Contemporary Leather - Sourced from manufacturers with strict animal welfare policies, this genuine leather collection features 24 rich shades with distinct tones and textures. Options range from luxurious semi-aniline leathers that showcase natural imperfections to smooth full-grain finishes.
Essential Cotton - These 100% cotton covers boast a natural wide-weave with a subtle two-tone effect available in classic shades like Pebble to bold pops of colour like Denim.
Core Fabric - Vibrant pastel and saturated hues adorn these eco-friendly, rayon-based fabrics mindfully crafted with sustainability in mind.
Silk (upgrade) - Capture timeless elegance with these shimmering silk covers offered in a spectrum of rich, vibrant jewel tones.
Personalisation Options
Make your album truly unique with Folio's extensive personalisation techniques from traditional to modern. Debossing and foil blocking add elegant raised lettering, while laser engraving and direct printing allow for custom text, motifs, dates and more. You can even opt for dazzling 22-carat gold or palladium embellishments for the ultimate luxe touch. Personalisation packages allow you to bundle text lines and bespoke fonts.

Wedding Album Ordering Process
Step 1: Select Your Favourite Images
- Begin by choosing approximately 75 of your favourite photographs from the day. This curated selection will form the foundation of your personalised album.
Step 2: Deposit and Layout Design
- A £300 deposit is required to initiate the album design process unless you have booked using my top wedding package. I'll then create an initial layout of your album, incorporating the selected images and others that help build the narrative of the day.
Step 3: Review and Revise
- Once the first design is ready, you'll have the opportunity to review it online to make changes with up to three rounds of revisions. This ensures every detail is perfect and exactly as you envisioned.
Step 4: Select Cover & Personalisation Options
- Now the fun part arrives, you get to select your fabric choices & personalisation options. Some of the options will change the final price so I’ll send you a detailed price list at this point.
Step 5: Final Approval and Balance Payment
- After the revisions & personalisation choices are complete and you're satisfied with the design, the final layout will be sent to you for approval. The remaining balance of the album cost is due at this stage.
Step 6: Album Production
- With your approval, your album will go into production at Folio Albums' workshop in Yorkshire. Each album is handcrafted with care by skilled artisans, ensuring your memories are preserved in a one-of-a-kind creation.
Step 7: Packaging and Delivery
- Upon completion, your album is wrapped in a natural cotton cover or bag and placed in a kraft presentation box. You have the option to further personalise the packaging with a printed or custom handmade box. The final product is then delivered to you, ready for unboxing and years of enjoyment.
