Default wedding albums

For all of you who are doing weddings, are you putting together wedding albums for your customers? Either proof book or a keepsake album? If so, what brands are you using? I'm looking for either leather or linen albums. Any ideas or links are appreciated! Thanks!

Tim, I've been looking at the queensberry, someplace around your neck of the woods? They look great, but I don't seem to find any pricing. Especially important since I have to calculate for shipping too. Ideas? Do you have to register to get a price list?

I think you have to register to get a price list, it was about NZ$220 (US$150) for the pack, including a license for PhotoJunction. If you email them and ask for a price list they'll probably give you one, once you can prove you're a photographer - rather than a bride looking to see what things really cost

QueensBerry started in NZ I think, but they operate in lots of countries now.

Yes, I have used them several times - reasonably priced (in the ballpark with most of the others) good service and pleasant to deal with. I'll be shipping some photos to them tomorrow for bindery.

Capri is also an excellent vendor. I think the only reason I chose Zook over them was because some friends had been using Zook for a while. You can't go wrong with either.

Tim, have you recieved your Asukabook yet. Do you just send them a CD with the images you want in it and then arrange the ablum for you? Do you get a preview? I am very interested in this style of book. I have been playing with their photoshop layouts. Just not sure.
