We believe that the best way to sell albums and other products is to create a tailored line that suits your market, personal imagery and brand. And we’ve realised that one little thing standing in the way is that you can’t customise our current cover material swatches to help you do that — select products, materials and colours, and then guide your clients to the right choice. So we've decided to relaunch our cover swatches to suit. We're now offering two different cover swatch tools, to choose your materials and to display them beautifully to clients.  The first is To View More >>

To that old saying about the only certainties being death and taxes, we need to add CHANGE! Change never ends, and as long as you don’t mind a bit of a roller coaster, it’s way more fun! We have so much coming up over the next weeks and months, we thought we’d better give you a heads-up. If you like what we stand for, we think you’ll love what we’re doing. And what do we stand for? Beautiful photography, beautifully presented. But it’s your opinion that matters, so click through to comment on our blog or Facebook. We’d love to hear To View More >>

The presentation box our albums come in has a long history. Developed for us in 1995 by leading designer Donna Hoyle, it combines two graphic elements: a 17th Century Italian text, and a series of leaf and heraldic devices including our own Cherub. It doesn’t even bear our name, but to us, and our customers, it’s a key part of our identity, like Tiffany’s Blue Box… but maybe not as famous! The Box even survived a total rebranding in 2008, when we couldn’t bear to part with it. It was another seven years before we refreshed the design, and even then we built on the To View More >>

There's a huge amount of power in Workspace. We know, we use it all, and we love it! Queensberry’s website is built on Workspace. We blog in Workspace. We sell in Workspace. And we design albums in Workspace, and Photojunction — half the albums we make, in fact, all part of our free album design service. But not everyone wants to use our software to design Flushmount albums and Q-Books … not when they're already up and running with cool alternatives like Fundy, SmartAlbums, or Adobe's InDesign and Photoshop.

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 >>

It can be a tough business, professional photography, and the key to success is maximum earnings per customer for minimum effort. That’s where we come in. Have you looked at our pricing pages lately? First, we’ve streamlined our systems and slashed our print prices. On everything from Fine Art to volume same day silver halide printing. And that’s only half the story. You can earn an instant 10% discount with a paid Workspace plan. Our regular customers do even better - up to 25% discount! So your album business can make your printing way cheaper. And your printing business To View More >>

Tonight we went out for dinner to celebrate our daughter Alexandria being accepted into University, and Charlotte's recent awards - a lovely night with our beautiful girls. I was just dozing off to sleep, when I felt Alex get into bed beside me. "What's up Al?" "I'm just going to lie here with you for a bit, I can't sleep." "It's okay, you can stay." I put my hand on her forehead, and she was asleep within minutes. Just like when she was little :-) What she doesn't know is that when I said she could stay, I meant she could stay forever if she wanted. I know she won't. I know she's excited To View More >>

If you've been wondering where we've been lately, this is it! We're excited – even proud in an understated Kiwi way ;) to announce Queensberry Press version 3.0. We get to say "yes" to a lot of things you've been asking for, and well ... we think you'll like the prices! So with that little fanfare please welcome Queensberry Press Albums. Press printed, flushmount or matted albums. Simple, affordable and gorgeous. Here are some of the features: Pages are either flushmount - unmatted and similar to our digital albums... ... or matted - overlay style in a clean cut page block reminiscent of Duo. To View More >>

This is something that trips people up sometimes if for some reason they need to send us new or edited files for a job. The Queensberry team doesn't have access to your Workspace account, so we can't work directly with your Workspace image collections. Instead, when you send us an order the hi res files are automatically downloaded to our local server. For the same reason, if you need to send us new or edited files, simply adding more images to your Workspace Event doesn't give us access to them. This is how to send us the new files. 1. Upload the new images to the original Workspace Event (not To View More >>
