There are 10,000,002 ways to create a Queensberry … approximately … but who's counting?!

Pagemount vs Overlay We offer a few types of matted album — Overlay Matted, Duo and Musée —and one of the important differences between them is whether the prints are mounted Overlay or Pagemount style. So what's the difference? Overlay: Industry-wide, almost all matted albums are overlay mounted, so overlays may not be new to you. Details may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but the photographs are attached behind the mat, which covers and conceals the edge of the prints. You can see this clearly in the first photograph. To View More >>

Copy Albums are easily our most popular "optional extra" and no wonder. They're a really affordable way to spread the album love around family and friends — and perfect for parents, coffee-tables and handbags. What's a Copy Album? As nearly as possible, a small replica of a larger album. You can order copies from Duo, Overlay Matted, Flushmount and Musée originals, but not Q Books or Portrait Albums. They're available in 5-inch, 7-inch and 10-inch sizes (13, 18 and 25cm) — the aspect ratio changes to suit the original. Panorama Flushmount Copy Albums, To View More >>

The sole purpose of our Favourites feature is to make your job as a photographer easier. Your clients select their favourite images by clicking the Workspace heart while hovering over an image. (On mobile you can reveal the Favourite button by tapping an image to view it full screen.)  Your clients can review their Favourites by clicking the Heart icon at the top right of the screen. You can view them too, in the backend of Workspace, and use them, for example, to order prints, or other products you offer, or to design an album. To View More >>

"I love a little quirk from time to time - something different for the soul — to keep things fresh, to keep the spark alive and to fuel my passion for wedding photography…” Maybe that explains why Jonny Harper did such an incredible job of capturing Tanaya and Mathew's wedding. I was so excited to discover their album coming through the Bindery. Working on this blog post was a lot of fun, with rabbits hidden in the bushes, incredible walls of art and so much more… Tanaya is  a set designer, Matthew a base player for his London based jazz band.
